Send Me On My Way

My phone rang early Saturday morning and a friend told me that one of my favorite bands was playing at the Amphitheater at Hershey Park on Sunday. I quickly logged on the PC to check for sure, and sure enough, Rusted Root was performing 2 shows on Sunday. Brent couldn't go, but when I called my brother to tell him, all he asked was, "What time are we going?"

Hershey Park is no cheap affair these days. I'm embarassed to admit to being old enough to remember when the Park was just meandering paths with pay as you go rides, large picnic pavillions, and the Comet was the only big attraction. But, I digress. Not only is it $47.50 for adult admission, but they sock you $10 to park on top of it. I can't imagine how a family with children can afford to go there and pay for food too! I picked up discounted tix at Giant which saved me $10 per ticket and they had a promotion this month with a coupon for the parking. Good deal.



Anyway, Rick and I hit the 2 new coasters - Farenheit and Stormrunner. Awesome! We waited about an hour for Farenheit, and only 15 min. for Stormrunner. They are both crazy rides. We loved 'em!

We hit the 4:00 Rusted Root show and decided right then and there that of course we'd be back for the 6:30 show. I'm glad we did. The play list was different, except for "Send Me On My Way." I got some great pics - and, they're coming out with a new CD. Check here http://www.rustedroot.com/ for information!
