Jazz Fest was rough this year. If it had been my first experience, it would certainly have been my last. There were thousands upon thousands of people crammed in to the Fairgrounds on Saturday when Cori and I headed in. Some reports I read said between 90-100k. It didn't take long to discover that there was no chance in hell of getting anywhere near the main stage so we settled for a spot where we could see one of the large screens.
Jerry Lee Lewis from said large screen.
Looking out over the crowd at the flags.
There was an airplane writing inspiring words and phrases along with smiley faces and hearts in the sky over Jazz Fest. That was probably my favorite part of the entire day.
Sir Elton John. We stayed through Tiny Dancer, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Candle in the Wind, Bennie and the Jets, and Rocket Man before making our exit.
More airplane sky art :)
On our way out we caught a glimpse of rapper T.I.'s performance as well as Ed Sheeran serenading the crowd at his stage. All in all the masses really cramped my style and put me in a bad mood. To be persuaded to return will call for an appearance by someone that I really want to see!
