Well, another festival has come and gone. While it's exhausting for the last month or so leading up to it, we were so blessed with all the volunteers and sponsors that the two days the festival was running were really invigorating. I hope you made it out and had an awesome time!
We were very sad that Nineball (The Savvy) had van trouble on the road and were unable to make it, but God is so good in bringing us bands that were ready and willing to fill the time, so there were no empty timeslots. When Chad Gentry ran into his second cancelled flight, we just rearranged the lineup a bit on the acoustic stage to accommodate his timeline and were blessed with his tunes once he arrived.
Our food vendors were pretty amazing this year, too. While barbeque has always been my favorite, Three Blind Pigs has taken it to a whole new level. I just don't know what they do to make it taste so good! Then to follow that with ice cream and coffee from Cold Stone and Roselens . . . nothing better!Of course, the fried pickles at Aunt B's Dinky Diner and the wood fired pizza at Sapores were both fantastic, too. You just couldn't go wrong wherever you went. In fact, I was excited to top off Saturday night with a strawberry smoothie from The Krunk.
Don't miss out on Spirit Midwest 2011. We're already booking bands and creating a plan!
