Went to the Rusk County Fair tonight where at 9pm Blackhawk played!
I mostly listened to the first half-hour playing the fair games or at the temporary plastic fence they had set up for the VIP section which you had to pay $20 more to get into: you also got to meet the band and got a video, but they didn't tell anyone that until after the concert so there were maybe 20 people in that section and while there were a few, like me, crammed against the fence most were about 50 yards away. Everyone complained, even the band had, had enough after the first half-hour, but the police/fair employees wouldn't open the gates. So I jumped the fence. And was quickly followed by at least a hundred other people.
While I can barely hear now and my throat hurts a little (From 'WOOO'ing as one does) I was able to get right up by the stage and it was more than worth it. They sounded just like they do on CD (maybe better) and I was RIGHT BY THE STAGE. It. Was. Awesome!
*Raises arms*
WOOOOOO!!!
