Hadn't heard about this... thanks! May try to stop by for a bit. Always fun to hang in Berkeley on a sunny day.

It was indeed a wonderful sunny day in downtown Berkeley !  I arrived early to hear and see the first three acts but had to leave before the last one  unfortunately due to a prior engagement of mine . Rosie McGee had a booth there as well and I went over to say hello .  The first band was "Reckoning"  

  The second band was "Wake of the Dead" The Bass player (Troy) was playing a 1991 Essence just like mine ! Troy and I  spoke after his set.  

  The third band was "Totally Dead" I spoke with both Matt (guitar) and Will (drums) . Matt was playing his green Stratocastor with Alembic pickups.
