Falls Fest 2008 [Day One]

A quick tour around Lucy Park where Falls Fest is held each year. This is our second year going to Falls Fest.

There was a BMX Demo going on by Flat Monkey BMX. This was just their warm-up stuff and we didn’t make it back over there for their full show.

The kids did some crafts at the Kids Corner before eating dinner and grabbing a spot for some music.

Wade Bowen was the opening act. The camera is jumping around so much because my daughter didn’t understand the concept of sitting still while I’m filming. :)

The Lost Trailers headlined the night with a great fireworks display.

Mayhem Festival

Last month I saw Sevendust and Saliva in concert and really wanted to go to a bigger show this summer. After Ozzfest was announced as being in Dallas, TX only and the line-up was posted I had that in my sights. I hadn’t been to Ozzfest for a few years after going 4 years straight. Granted I have seen most of the bands at Ozzfest a few I really wanted to see again including Drowning Pool (saw them back in the Dave Williams days, RIP). I ended up waiting a little too long to purchase OzzFest tickets as they only had some crappy seats available, with a notice during checkout that your view of the stage may be obstructed. I really didn’t want to pay $100 for a seat that I may or may not be able to view the stage. So, I looked at the Rockstar Mayhem Fest instead. I have seen Disturbed and Slipknot several times before but would love to see them again with new music. I also wouldn’t mind seeing Five Finger Death Punch, DragonForce and Walls of Jericho. Today I finally purchased my ticket for the July 25 Dallas, TX date. Anybody else going to either Ozzfest or the Mayhem Fest?
