Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. June 10, 5:00 AM EST. I leave my house. 7:30 PM CST we're in Nashville, Tennessee.
We consists of
Carrie Musgrave and myself. Carrie offered me the opportunity to piggyback on her media pass so I of course jumped at the chance. Short notice be damned.
In Nashville we took a walk on Broadway and had a beer at BB King's Blues Club. Really, we were just too tired to do much. Had a good night's sleep though, and took our time getting to Bonnaroo. The guest campers (which we are among) are given a super secret backroads route to our check-in point and we had a blast driving through the bible belt. Even the smallest of towns seemed to have 5 or more churches. We circled back when we spotted a mock graveyard condemning abortion. Thump, thump, thumpers.....
The lineup on Asbury road was incredible. How thankful am I that we weren't going that way?
I'm shooting bands now. What Made Milwaukee Famous, Superdrag, Back Door Slam, Grand Ole Party, Nicole Atkins and MGMT among them.
More soon.....
