They were supposed to be doing it again this year but due to circumstances, it was called off. I'm so up for it if it happens though.

I remember seeing the old hippie to my left I was walking next to him about 4 feet away, then I saw this good looking chick walk down the stairs and a guy with a camera. I'd love to see what I looked like back then as a long haired sixteen year old. Stayed in the big tent and still froze my butt off but what a truly great weekend. Often wonder what happened to the old hippie if he were alive I reckon he would be 115 by now.

The weekend was one hell of a struggle the weather wore you down but it didn't dampen enthusiasm of youth. The music was A1 they tried to make it entertaining as possible with hi wire and diving acts. No regrets great times.
