x102.9's Rock on the River II

Oh my God. This was so great. When we showed up, we were an hour or two late after waiting on a friend of mine, and by the time we got there, it was just kicking off. This was amazing. The only part that was questionable was the strong smell of beer in the air, but it made me actually feel a part of the whole thing. Everyone was jumping, the band really got involved with the crowd. At one point, AWOLNATION got the entire crowd in the Landing's courtyard to jump, screaming, "Are you ready to crack the ******* ground?!". It was really fun. In between bands, there was other stuff going on as well. There was a performer using sticks to keep one bigger stick in the air. I'm not sure what this is actually called, so bear with me. Forgive all the trash, where he was performing was actually a mosh pit when the bands were playing. Which was fun to be a part of.

At any rate, I snapped a panorama of the entire crowd so if you see yourself, give a shout!

I'm hoping to attend next year, as well. With a better camera! I have more pictures and I'll probably upload them at a later point but they need a lot of editing for the dirt spots and how uncooperative the sun was this afternoon. It was so bright and harsh. It shows in all of my photos, as you can see it was pretty hot.
