Countryfest 2011

This past Saturday was Countryfest 2011 in Altamont, NY.  This is probably one of largest attended concert collective of country music stars in NYS.  Thirty-six thousand tickets were sold.  The weather could not have been more beautiful and thanks to an SPF level of 50, the hubby and I are not lobsters. We had arrived around 11:30am and did not leave until about 9:20pm.  As enjoyable as it was to be there with friends it can be summed up as one long day of lawn chair sitting, public port-a-potty usage, and wicked expensive concessions.  There were several artists that I did enjoy hearing in a live setting, but unfortunately with how crowded it was our view of the stage was quite limited.  People watching was at an all time high though.

Countryfest Fun Fact #185:  Jägerbombs, extensive sun exposure, and an already pronounced lisp makes for an exceptionally obnoxious Countryfest goer.  This is a scientifically proven fact, we sat not six feet from her.
