I have to say, this fest was a blast. We didn't have the best set, but hanging out in the field with Chad and the other Boozehounds, as well as the
O'Toole's and the Pubcrawlers was a ton of fun (And I think a bill with the four of us would be pretty damn great. We need to start working on that).
And seeing Stiff Little Fingers was one of my highlights of the year so far.
I don't know if anyone here is going to any of the other shows, but I was totally strapped for cash and couldn't get an SLF shirt, so if someone wants
to pick up a size large for me, I'd be happy to Paypal you the money for it.
Good seeing you Chad!

I had a great time!! We should definitely work on that show (Gobshites, Boozehounds, Pubcrawlers, O'Tooles). There are a lot of great pictures getting
put up on Facebook. I think my highlight was when we finished our set and this guy from California (who was loaded) came over to talk to us. He was
very excited to meet us and then said " You guys are so awesome, you sound just like the Red Hot Chilli Peppers". Nothing against them but I don't see
ANY comparison at all. It was a really good time over all and we sold a ton of merch!! The ride all the way back to Boston on Sunday, Not so fun!!

Red Hot Chili Peppers? Huh, alright then. I tried once to get Pete to use the tagline "If you cover your ears and squint, it's almost like watching
Celtic Thunder."
We didn't even bring merch for the show. The whole 70/30 thing kind of stuck in our craw a bit. There were one or two other behind the scenes things
that bothered us about the fest, but as an event it was great.

We are kind of lucky as far as merch goes. I make all of our shirts so we sell them at our shows for $7. So for the fest we made them $10 and still
got the $7!! I was pretty happy with how everything ran (except maby our set time getting switch from the time sent out the night before).
