It's actually been nine years since the first one took place on the patio at The Hub in Fullerton, and my, how it has grown!

I've performed at all seven, and this was the biggest by far...two huge stages, the entire parking lot for the train and bus station shut down, thousands cheering...and littering...the people at the festival had more interest in the acts on stage than any sort of activism...I got up three times during the day (with three different stunning green-based outfits..."Green is the new black") and played a few songs on acoustic before being joined by Fullerton's own LIT for a rollicking version of "Anything, Anything" which ended my set and began theirs...they were wonderful human beings...truly cool...and I thank them, and everybody who showed up, for the fun. It's especially cool because it's one of the few shows my kids get to come and see...

All in all, I had a blast, and I'll probably be there next time they do one...
