This was a very unique show in my opinion. Highlights galore... ITK> tribute to Stone Pony legends Bruce and Joel> ITK, Kula (with Kula tease?), Blue> Keefer> Echo... great night on the boardwalk!

Peaking at The Peak! One more my favorite local venues. It was cool catching Water and LMS. Intentions Clear had a great jam that came outta nowhere.

Great day setter. My brother and I caught Jake and Pony standing next to us grooving to Femi Kuti earlier in the day. I told 'em to "play that funky Booth Lovin'" knowing it was one they had been polishing. The Miles Davis cover took me by surprise, very cool to hear. Divisions> I'm on Fire> Divisions was so nice.

The sweet little old lady mayor of Masontown introduced the band as a light rain broke the Mountaintop heat. I believe she flubbed on the name.

Drove up from WVU on a "school night". I'm glad we did... Show Biz Kids, Andy's Last Beer and Kimble were highlights.

Definitely a Top 5 show in my book. All Gooders were talking about the Shine On You Crazy Diamond for the rest of of fest.

The encore... oh the encore!

This show was so different from the night before. Very uneven. Just as the night before, second set was killer.

*personal note- I had my first legal alcoholic beverage at this show, as my 21st struck at midnight. Birthday show? I like to say so...

This might be a Top 5 show for me. This show brought the Soul!

Dear Lord/Amazing Grace mashup? Tease makes more sense to me, but hey, I'm not the pro here.

Second set did not let up.

Night time is the right time! Farag came around to the front to rap Regulate. Push the Pig with Murphy stick out in my mind. Kabump> Gulf Stream... when will that ever happen again!?

My first UM and tBD (and only) show. Utopian> All in Time hooked me. The Biscuits put up a stronger show as the closer, but UM ultimately won me over.
