Thanks for the really cool write up of the festival. It was really great to be a part of it. I have to disagree with one thing however...<BR/><BR/><BR/>"Justin Hoenke however, didn’t seem to be having as much fun."<BR/><BR/>I had a really great time...I got to play a lot of songs that I don't usually play live, so I felt quite free. <BR/><BR/>It would've been nicer, just in general for all the musicians and for Oil City as well, if there was more of a crowd. However, in my experiences playing music around these parts it's just so hard to get people interested in local music. They really just want "Sweet Home Alabama" and that's about it.<BR/><BR/>I really enjoyed the gaggle of folks sitting quite close to the stage when I played. <BR/><BR/>And I will agree...it would've been very cool to see some merchandise at the show. I would've taken home a few cds from some of the artists. I didn't bring any of my own material because I wasn't told about any kind of merchandising or place that I'd be able to give my music away at.<BR/><BR/>Overall, I hope this thing happens again, and if it does, I'd really like to be part of it.<BR/><BR/><BR/>-JustinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13141702.post-61191793104389127432007-05-28T18:56:00.000-04:002007-05-28T18:56:00.000-04:00Thanks for the updates on the kudos Joann, and, I ...Thanks for the updates on the kudos Joann, and, I never thought that I would be saying this, but people must be more law-abiding in the OC than FKL because even though we have a similar law here, our parks are constantly filled with people letting their dogs run loose and no one seems to enforce it!<BR/>Thanks for all your hard work bringing this together - it was great seeing you on Saturday.Dittmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00759621744813019807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13141702.post-91205005921452366112007-05-28T17:37:00.000-04:002007-05-28T17:37:00.000-04:00Hay?

I love that! <BR/>There were no loose dogs because dogs are not allowed in Justus Park (who knew? I nearly brought mine) and several groups with dogs on leashes got sent home by city workers. Apologies to them... <BR/>No commissioner candidates made it, true, but mayoral candidate Sonja Hawkins was there early in the day to show her support, along with people from the school district, the campus, the arts council, etc. <BR/><BR/>Glad everybody could make it -- let's do it again!<BR/><BR/>JoannAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
