Kenny, I was there...right by the stage, selling merch. Would love to have seen you. And you are right about the PA. The last couple of years they have played on the Miller Lite stage and there is definitely a big difference. Plus, they had problems with the lights...kept throwing the breaker. I'm gonna come out and see you guys play one night. I am anxious to do that.
