Louisville: Lookin' (and Rollin') Back

layin low · Nov 02, 2010, 02:13 PM

It's four days after one of the greatest shows ever, and I am still beaming from ear to ear. Am starting this thread just to share some pics for the masses who couldn't be there.

Drove 8 hours from Charlotte, and it was well worth it. Thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful city of Louisville and everyone my friend and I met were great. Totally diggin BBC Brew, visited that place three times during our trip and got some bottles of Rye IPA to take home.

YUM! Center: Wow. What a great venue. Was just a great party on the floor. Favorite costumes were The Count and the Pumpkin Girls (and of course, the Colonel Sanders crew during the encore). Sure, there were a couple of hacksaws trying to hit everyone with glowsticks, and it saddens me that Steam Engine was removed, but can't really complain after three hours of face-melting.

Apologies to all for being the tall guy in the crowd (I can't help it), but I at least helped a couple of girls around me get a better view since they said nobody wanted to stand around me.

Thanks again to the band for an incredible night and the city of Louisville and its tenants for a great time. Hoping for a return trip in the near future.

Here are some pics:

That's cool. My wife and I also drove up from Charlotte. I'd do it again tomorrow for a performance like that.

I'll try to post some pics as well today or tomorrow.

Too bad my wife and I didn't get photographed to show that a couple from Canada flew all the way to Louisville to watch the show. Nonetheless, there are some excellent photos and awesome costumes. We actually stood in line and hung out at the concert with the couple in photo 20, who were Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox. They were a lovely couple.
