You must have been there while the good performers were playing. I don't think I've ever heard a worse band than the one which was playing around 7pm. >Food?

Instead of last year's all-you-can-eat for 3.99$, you got 9 burnt >riblets for 2.99$. I think that "The Fancy Lamb" had iced tea - at least someone ordered it and was given a dark brown liquid. And the ice cream/computer repair place probably had ice cream. I had some lamb slices at "The Fancy Lamb" and a sandwich at the Wool Growers stand. Both were pretty good, although the first place was amazingly disorganized. All in all, the Festival wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't worth going back to. ---------------------------- Jack Hamilton jfh@acm.org Sacramento, California USA kd6ttl@n0ary 1992 BMW K75RT
