This past weekend was one that I always look forward to, it was the 6th annual Awakening Music Festival. I have been a volunteer for this festival for 4 years now in the tech area. In previous years, I would go on Friday night and help with the setup and rigging of the sound and lights, which is something I used to do alot of in my younger days.
It started at about 7:00 when we unloaded the headliner’s equipment. ( won’t mention him by name for multiple reasons..). The one cool thing about being on the tech crew is unloading and setting up all of the equipment. The equipment seems to either get heavier every year, or I lose strength every year, I can’t really tell which it is either way I feel like I have been through bootcamp.
In what has become an Awakeningfest tradition, it rained. Only this time it rained.. and rained … and rained.. all day. The remarkable thing is that alot of people showed up, I would imagine it was about 10,000, maybe more. The bands were all great, here are some of the pictures I tweeted during the day.

I have noticed that the older I get the heaver things get. You would figure with todays advance technology that we can make things lighter and lighter instead of heavier and heavier.
It looks like you had a great time.
