I know I normally write a little blurb about each band...but 30 bands gave me a bit too much to remember. Between 5/28 and 5/30 I saw the following bands:
5/28
Adelita's Way
New Medicine
Saving Abel
Janus
Buckcherry
The Veer Union
Three Days Grace
Richy Nix
Godsmack

5/29:
Pedal Pushers (they took another band's place so I think this is the correct name)
Burn Halo
Nigel Dupree Band
Fuel
Brookroyal
Saliva
Like A Storm
Cinderella
Shaman's Harvest
ZZ Topp
Gypsy Pistoleros

5/30:
Within Reason
Aranda
Hail the Villain
Sevendust
Firststryke
Theory of a Deadman
Taddy Porter
Chevelle
Lacuna Coil
Tesla

I rocked out for most of the weekend, it was thoroughly awesome!! Things I remember...
The Veer Union was a lot of fun and the lead singer has a wicked mohawk.
Godsmack was fucking amazing!! K wants to borrow all my Godsmack now :D
Shaman's Harvest was so good! I have been waiting to see them for a while and this was a perfect venue for it.
Gypsy Pistoleros were a band that I knew nothing about, they were catchy and didn't seem to take themselves too seriously and got friggin' Livin' La Vida Loca stuck in my head. Their version rocked out quite a bit more than Ricky Martin's.
Theory of a Deadman put on what was probably the worst show all weekend...I thought it sounded like the lead singer was trying to push himself to far out of his range and losing vocal strength because of it, K just thought he wasn't putting all his energy into it. He was doing the same stupid thing this time as he did at Cruefest last year, that turn my head away from the mic before I finish the verse/phrase/whatever. So annoying!!
Chevelle put on a pretty good show and got the crowd moving again.
Lacuna Coil was just as awesome as I thought they would be, although I wish Cristina sang a bit more:(

I managed to not get any sunburn with the help of some lovely SPF50 sunblock :)
