Ya know, I think the marshmallows are fun but it's not so good to whip them at the musicians. I guess Planet Bluegrass will have to add "no marshmallows" to their signs.
For sure. We ended up in the middle; Tim O'Brien was great, but the a marshmallow hit a friend in the eye and we left to get her some help. I love Tim O'Brien and was out raged having to miss 1/2 his show because somebody thought I paid money to have marshmallows thrown at me not to hear music. Not only was it disrespectful to Tim, but to his fans. Our neighbor on the tarp had a fresh beer ruined, and to the other side somebody had marshmallow gook in his hair which a $3 dollar shower didn't get all out. Never mind my shoes which had marshmallows on the bottom. I ended up skipping Emmylou because my stuff was in the middle of the war, and I just didn't want to go back for it. And she sound great. Wish I could have seen it. The only thing I have to say negative about this year festival was the marshmallows. Next year they need to kick people out who do that. Really. If it wasn't for that it would have been a perfect festival.  Listening to: My clothes washing |

During Emmy's set people were intentionally winging them at the stage. Throwing anything at a performer should be grounds for having your wristband cut off immediately and your happy ass marched out. What if Emmy got a marshmellow in her eye during her set???? We shouldn't create an environment that is going to result in PG having to get security folks roaming the tarps policing our behavior. Throwing things around including little soft marshmellows is just stupid and dangerous. And with those stupid marshmellows you get goo on your shoes and on your tarps. How "green" is that anyway? When they are searching our stuff on entrance it isn't just glass they should be looking for. Who ever is bringing these things to throw around, please stop. |
