well, me and my friends got in around the troc around 7:00 i guess. We just stood around wondering if we were gonna find Nate's dad becuz he was gonna try and get us back-stage for an interveiw. But i hadn't talked to him that day so we didnt know if he was really there. Well, he wasnt. The opener was Skinner Box i think that they are a NYC ska band. They were good, and having fun drinkin and skankin on stage. I got to go up on stage and help out w/ one of their songs, but there was about 15 others so i just skanked around like some kind of idiot. There was about 20 minutes in between sets. The bosstones came on and started the set off w/ kinderwords, the crowd went crazy, i also noticed the reason Nate's dad wasnt there, Nate wasnt there, there was someone named Kevin playin from a Boston band, i didnt catch the name of the band. it was fun, they played some new stuff which was cool, but i eventually moved from the front to the side, because i couldnt really see the band thanx to crowd surfers, but if ya cant beat 'em, join 'em. so i did my share of stage divin, i suggest everyone do it. The bosstones were rippin it up, and so was Kevin(the replacement). Later, they dedicated "Wallet" to Nate, and said that they wish him luck, i later found out that Nate's mom was sick. They left the stage and then came back on to play "Think Again". And then it was over.
