lobsterfest precap.

Tomorrow morning (early) I will be getting into a small car with four friends to drive four hours to Athens, Ohio for Lobsterfest '06. The lineup of bands rivals the lineup of friends, and wins out only in quantity. Quality is a close call. Playing the outdoor (potentially overcast) festival are Matt Pond PA, Owen, Saturday Looks Good To Me, Kevin Devine, Southeast Engine, Joe Anderl & The Universal Walkers, and Fine Dining. Four long-time favorites and three promising sounding local Athens bands make for one excited blogger. Throw in a Medieval Society's "heavy weapons" showcase and a dance team, and you've got the makings.
I won't be around to get a Saturday post up. I can hope that Sunday and Monday won't be weak, but I can tell you that Tuesday's Spotlight is one to look forward to. For now, enjoy a bit of everything that I'm looking forward to.
