Rothbury was an incredible event. Amazing on so many levels - the people, the place, the music, the sustainability aspect - the whole vibe just came together so well. I must admit, I'm not usually a huge fan of the jam band scene, but I was loving it this past weekend when I was watching Widespread Panic jam on the 4th of July. Speaking of hippies, best line I heard:
Fan of Widespread Panic during drum solo: "Dude, it's drums. Don't dance man. People will make fun of you."
My friend, another WSP fan, during drum solo: "This is when hippies pass out."
With that, here are a few pictures, for more see my flickr album.

Other highlights include the almost zero-waste and sustainability aspect. Even Snoop took the time to separate out his compost and recyclables and put them in the appropriate bins. Michael Franti led yoga sessions each morning (although I did not make it to them, thanks jager). There was an energy fair, farmers market and some great art...stay tuned for pictures of the monkeys.
