Deer Creek. What can I say? It was the same as always, an unbelievable time! We got into Sleepy Bear in the early afternoon on Sunday. Immediately we set up shop and starting pregamming for the shows. Sarnovsky and Pitcock decided to switch at the last minute from staying at Dead Creek to join us over at Sleepy Bear. Great decision! We played a ton of cornhole as well. It has been a long time since I’ve played, and it showed when I didn’t win a game the entire weekend…

Night 1 was incredible. Seeing Dave come out to introduce OAR was something I’ve always dreamed of saying. To sum it up he said something like, many of you probably already know them, but if you don’t I’m sure you will after this show. They played a good 6 song setlist after than and then DMB played a solid set of new and old. The after party was my favorite though. Mike, Joe DiDia and I stayed up until the sun was coming up. The time was just flying by. Thank god it was chilly overnight, I was able to sleep in until around 10…

This is when Day 2 started. The same usual daily activities with a lunch at Qdoba thrown in. Mike agreed with me and said that it is good but it is no Chipotle. The show this night was amazing though. Both bands’ setlists were incredible, and the energy was insane, even during OAR. Sarnovsky estimated a crowd of 17000 for OAR and that is huge! The return of Best Of Whats Around was reason enough to love this show. One of my favorite shows ever!

Now it’s back to work though, booooooooo.
