  Daily Report # 1 from JT on the DADL

JT - DA's manager has posted this to the DADL so I thought I'd share it for all you guys who arn't true fans and on the list. )

Anyway with out further ado..

quote:

I thought I'd try something new this year for those of you not able to join us here at Cornerstone. That is, I'll write a bit each morning when I return from the fest to keep you all in the loop as to the happenings... Today was set up day for the Warm & Filled booth. Jason and Eric Townsend arrived after picking Terry and Tom (Strahle -- fill in guitartist for Greg Flesh) up at the StL airport. (Btw, you can here Tom's musical stylings on the acoustic guitar on LITTLE, big). We completed the merch set up and are ready to open the booth tomorrow at noon -- the official start of the festival. Terry, Tom and Rob Watson all arrived safe today. They immediately began rehearsals for a few of the TST and DA related shows. Mike Roe and Mark Harmon, as well as Ed McTaggert and Tim Chandler are all set to arrive later today (Tuesday). There are no DA or 77's related shows schedule for today, so the day will be spent in rehearsals, at the W&F merch booth, and generally caring for the new releases (which all made there way to CStone on time). Got to see a few from the list again today (Trish Zacher (nowLove?), Glen and Linda Miller, David Cervantes, and Kevin Schaeffer immediately come to mind). This, of course, is the best part of the fest. Now that the booth is set up, more time will be afforded to visiting... Until tomorrow. JT

  Trip to Mecca

So what does a ticket to Cornerstone cost anyway? And how do you decide what bands to see? Are they going on all over the place all the time in a wide open Woodstock-esque setting or what's the deal? Forgive my non coolness for not knowing.

I think tickets are anywhere from $65-$80, whenever you buy your ticket. It includes camping. The bands play on various stages, and there is a mainstage that runs from 7:00-midnight. I usually avoid the mainstage, although I saw the 77's play a mean show there back in '92. There are several shows going on from midnight on too. It's a "pick & choose" thing, and it can be frustrating. It's a ton of fun though.
