 August 2nd New Paltz , NY. Ulster County Fair
Howdy! We left Saturday eve। For a looong bus ride up to New Paltz , NY. It was welcoming though after all of the craziness of the week. We ended up having two drivers for this trip. That was really nice and a lot safer! We
drove though the night, all was well until we hit New Jersey. The bottom dropped out of the clouds and there was torrential rain! The interstates were flooded to the point where traffic was backed up and water was coming up over the wheels of cars. I’d never seen interstates flooded like that before. It slowed our progress getting to the gig by roughly an hour to an hour and a half. By time we got to the outdoor festival, we were to have supposed to already been on stage, but they were totally understanding because their weather had been just as threatening. I think we broke a speed record though by time we did get there. Due to the cool crew that had all dialed up for our arrival, Brice, our drummer flying in from a previous gig and be able to set up his kit, and all of our helpful Thunderheads from radio to help us offload gear. We were sound checked and ready to play within about thirty minutes! We were slated for two shows and even though the weather did affect the crowds a little bit, all went well and us along with the audience had a great time. The weather cleared out too! Having the second driver really paid off, because after the show, we were able to shower and head back home! We ended up getting back the next day a lot earlier than previously thought, which is always cool because it’s always nice to not to have to spend your day off traveling home.
