Strangecreek 2005

June 1, 2005

I spent the weekend with my husband Chris and our friends TJ & Christine and their 2 kids at the Strange Creek Festival. If anyone out there has ever been to Bread & Puppet or Gathering of the Vibes, it's basically the same thing but much, much smaller.

After two & 1/2 hours of driving to western ma and watching cars, concrete and highways turn into cows, grassy hills and dirt roads, we arrived at the gate. Unloaded some stuff and went across a couple of rows of cars to the sounds of a reggae band. There was a small crowd of tie dyed hippies and little kids bouncing in front of the stage. A couple of college kids were throwing frisbees around. We set up our chairs, broke out some snacks for the kids and some beers for us, and laid back for two solid days of music.

After watching the band for about half an hour, I asked Christine where the main stage was. "This is the main stage"

Heaven.
