What a huge venue. I bet that was an experience!

I want to see Audio Adrenaline or Relient k again live. AA was fantastic in person.
I saw Relient K one time. I don't remember if it was with MXPX or with Five Iron Frenzy... Maybe it was when they were still fairly new and I saw them at Rage Fest. That was so many years ago...

I have an EGO trimmer and Blower and interchangeable batteries. so much easier than dragging out the pull start Husq with a bunch of pulls and warm up time for short spurts. haven't started that in years. the EGO blower I use all the time for even blowing sawdust out of the garage. the fiskar is just for single weed clumps. I walkover to the neighbors and remove their dandelions for free so I don't get them.
Same! I have the ego 56v mower also. I will never go back to gas.

Rage Fest was a Christian Concert festival with 30+ bands at Castle's and Coasters. You got to ride roller coasters, play goofy golf, and listen to some fun bands. It was a 3 day event if I recall correctly.

Afternoon John , hope your day gets better .
Thanks CB! I went to the store and bought everything to make a delicious seafood pasta. While I was standing in line, I was hit by a huge migraine. Sadly the pasta will have to wait until tomorrow.

You might want to take a nap . Stress is a major issue these days . Maybe take a something to ease the pain . I hate it when migraines happen .

Audio Adrenaline was a ton of fun! Especially the drum stage turning and going vertical.
Man what year would you say you saw them. I had to have seen the same tour. Im thinking 96 or 97?
