Bela Fleck and the Flecktones are now my new heroes. After a long and intense weekend of amazing music, good fun, lots of new friends, too much heat, and waaaay too much molly for my head, Ben and I sat down for the Flecktones Sunday night completely sober (except, of course, for all that ganja we smoke, but that is pretty much sober for us). I was expecting amazing, I was expecting an awesome show, I was expecting to be blown away.
I was not expecting what I got...
I have never heard a show like that before. Ben shed tears almost the whole time, I kept turning around to show him my dropped jaw. I couldn't even believe it was happening. I was in awe the whole set.
Seriously the most psychedelic experience of my life.....and with the aid of no drugs what so ever.
I am still amazed by it. Hopefully I will get to see them two more times this summer, but at least once for sure.
Kansas was hot and flat and fun.
Ben and I have plans to go to High Sierra Music fest and 10k Lakes music fest and Oregon Country Fair (in between those two big music fests) and then who knows what else will come. I have fallen madly in love, so has Ben. Life is good and love is plentiful. I can not wait to get back out on the road. We have two weeks here before head back out...
