Its Blocktoberfest out here

So we were pumped that there was some kind of fest out here, but it was not quite the same as the Fremont variety. Christine, Sara and Mike Mulle came out to RFK stadium parking lot with us to see how it worked. Bands on the bill we were interested in Violent Femmes and Gin Blossoms (I had that CD back in the day so I was interested). This thing was 5 stages, 50 something bands and a huge midway of scary carnival rides and the karneys that run them. VF's played early like 2pm so we were out there in the heat enjoying them. GB were not on till 10pm so we entertained ourselves by drinking some beer, listening to some really not good polka music with a southern twist, and riding some midway rides. Note to readers beer drinking and then riding the scrambler not always a good idea. I did not lose it but you know it was not a good feeling for a few minutes. GB were not very good so we left to go home and make some brownies with York Peppermint Pattys cooked in them, yum, good idea by Christine. Another highlight was we stopped at the party store and bought a thing of 25 glow bracelets and were sporting those when the lights went down. Very fun and you can find your people. Lets hope we remember this for our next night event.
