This will be forever remembered as the Ink-n-Iron with the epic line. 2 hours friends!! We showed up ten minutes before the Skatalites thinking that'd be just enough time to get in, get a beer and watch the show. Whoa, no way, we baked in the sun with everyone else. Something told me it was just a critical mass moment and that I'd be better off going back to the hotel and relaxing for a while. Which turned out to be true since the line was gone by 6, but I was holding out hope I'd get to see at least a song. By the time Skatalites ended their set I was committed.
Anyways, the rest of the show rocked. Sang with the Woggles, Detroit Cobras wern't pissy, Sonics played all the hits, (and a couple clunkers)but its the Sonics!
Next day was spent with bloody marys by the pool, topped off with a killer set by the Buzzcocks! They played, and I sang all the hits.
I shoulda took a pic the first night, since I was a lot closer, but I was a lot drunker too. So here's the Buzzcocks from a safe, adult, boring distance. Check out the Queen Mary in the background. Summer is ON!
