I got out there around 7:30 and wandered amongst the sparse crowd before bar-hopping. I sat in Gallagher's for a while just talking to several of the Kiwi Carpenters on station before wandering out to check out the Coffee House (where they were showing episodes of The Simpons on the big tv in the theater room) and wandering back into the concert which had picked up a larger crowd by then.
At one point I realized that while I like people by themselves, I really can't stand massive groups (which I think falls under the classification of a 'mob') as the level of general stupidity tends to increase, especially when alcohol is thrown into the mix. Ah well.
Sleep was out of the question, as even though my room was on an interior of 155, I could still hear the concert across two other rooms and a hallway in between. So I wandered back out and stuck around till 12:30am or so. I knew where the after party was (in a large, empty fuel silo up the hill) but I was too tired to go wandering around, especially in the cold.
The concert was interesting, and some people had some crazy costumes set up.

Sure is bright down there after 6:30 pm! Looks like a good time was had by all. So where did the bands come from? Local garage bands or flown-in name bands?
Oh, and Happy New Year!
Yeah, it didn't occur to me until later that it was midnight and the sun was still partying hard. Its been up for over two months now.
And they were all local bands, I don't think Raytheon or the NSF would pay for anyone famous.
There are enough musically talented people down there to create several bands?!?
So how many local bands were there?
What are their names? Anything clever?
