Guys, this is Gabe w/ From A Seed. I want to extend thanks to Travii and CLMS. I can't wait to hear some of the stuff.  It was a wonderful weekend full of good times...anyone who wasn't there sure missed a hell of a party. Friday night was awesome w/ a shitload of people at the stage starting w/ Sticky Rhythm at 8pm and ending w/ the Mantras @ 5:30am as the sun was casting through the clouds. That made just enough time for a wink of sleep. It was hot as hell both days but the breeze really helped on Saturday. I was glued to the stage from about 2:30 on. It was an awesome day of music. I can't wait until next year!!!

Is this the ax job?

[trOn]

i heard about the axe job, heffro you lost your keys at the toe jam remember, i found some keys at the millstone if anyone lost them hit me up. also have a pile of coolers, shoes, and a cell phone, it was a great weekend i'm surprised i didn't lose anything!

[Chris]

+1 for Gabe and basskick.

Heffro... that was one of my favorite festival stories of the season! 
"Ummm... yeah an Axe will do just fine.  I've exhausted all other ways to retrieve the keys I locked in my car"...  What's a festival without a wook?

Guys I'll get the audio out as soon as I can.  First let me play catch up with school.  Those of you that have been around here a while know that we post audio in the Music Archive.  I'll create a thread specifically for all of the Groverfest audio once I get a few sets uploaded.


"i did hear one girl talkin about it was her first festival and all that jazz... can anybody say you can have too much too fast?" 
Werd!  rookies {{{Shakes head}}}

Even better is that we got a view of the ax man right after the story finished. Stumbled right by the living room and through the mud, :)

[gooseducksteven]

All I hear is something like a gunshot going off 50 feet from our camp.  We look over to see a man with an axe busting a hole in his (?) window.    Never a dull moment. 

Thanks to everyone who made it all happen.  We were psyched to be a part of it as always.  Heffro, it won't be the same without you, but we will somehow find the will to carry on!  Now...where did I put my keys??

[heffro]

Is this the ax job?

The one and only!! Yeah, it was classic when we saw him later fall out of the hay and stumbled towards us...with a look I'll never forget. Good times!

I was def psyched to be there and it was a beautiful farewell show for me and Near Gravity. Jarrod, I know you guys will carry on but I'll miss the shit out of playing with ya.

I'll go on record right now and say, YES I lost my keys at Toe Jam. I not only got towed back to Charlotte, but I also found my keys a few weeks later in my sleeping bag! That's right 

[JBaker0585]

haha damn found them in the sleeping bag.

[nohuiam]

oooOOOwwwhhhwWWwWweEEEEeeeeeEeeEeEEEe

I got some stuff to add to this thread.  Someone may kill be for some pics but hey, where is my dang floppy hat???  Bubba through it in someone's truck Sunday after these guys told me several times it was at their camp.  I didn't know where their camp was so when I finally found it they said it was just there.  Bubba said "I through it in the truck that just left."  AAAaaaaaaaaahhhh  BUUBBbbbaaaAaa!!!!

[Leslie Pless]
