2009 was cool...got to meet Buddy Guy, Ric Jazz and Quinn Sullivan on their tour bus, and Jackie Green at the teen scene
but fav Vibes memoire, 2010 late night... with Kip Wellington, Natasha, and Space Camp crew... harassing the hotline while passing out lighters and styrofoam "cell phones"

2009...when the rain stopped and watching my brother defy death after he tripped on the rocks and made it all the way to the sand without tumbling on to his face

Walking around the field during Furthur and marveling at how many people were quietly lying on the grass staring up at the sky.

05? Jerry Tribute vibes? Keller Williams and then the Raindog set!!!


That year we waited forever to get in - Cate was 3 months old. It was so late, we parked, dropped our stuff, ran out to the field, put up our sun shelter, parked Cate in the stroller under it (she slept through thunderbobby) & we danced in the rain. I looked a bit later & there was about 15 randoms under our shelter trying to stay dry :lol:

Then we head back to the car to unpack & we had LOST THE KEYS!! :afro: Here I am with everything in the car & a 3 month old. I was ready to put a rock through the window & deal with it at the end of the weekend but Frank insisted I let him search first - sure as shit he found the keys squished in the mud on the field - AMAZING!! <3

2008! I never laughed so hard in my life, we celebrated Spidergawd's 40th birthday, I became friends with Lola, Tyler, Andrew, Jeffie and Joel, Phil and Friends was awesome, and finally... it was the year of 'The Shusher'. :funny1: Edited: I see it's favorite 'moment'. Well...this is still my answer.


While the PLQ sets in '02 were sick, and the Jerry tribute in '05 was sooo emotional for me, I must say that the forces that brought this pleasure crew together in '08 knew exactly what they were doing. This was my favorite Vibes "moment" ummm... minus running crying from the VIP tent wanting to Vibes to stop for a bit - I don't count that part.

2002 Les Claypool was Amazing! Plus the being surrounded by the "Waking Dream" characters. Loved the big eyeball walking around.
Great memories.

This is a tough call. If I have to pick one.....Would be Vibes 2007, my first. Saw Ryan's set and was about to leave the main field when i spotted Ryan and thanked him for the show. I had never met nor spoken to Ryan before. He asked me where i was headed and said back to camp for a nap.
I had never seen Martin Sexton who was to go on next. Ryan told me I could not leave because Martin Sexton was the reason he decided to be a musician in the first place. He put his arm around my shoulder to keep me there. Standing next to Ryan watching him enjoy his idol and hearing Martin for the first time at that moment is easily my favorite Vibes memory.

I still cry everytime I see Martin live and he sings Black Sheep. Thanks to Dee 2.0 for sharing one of those moments with me.

Lots of other great memories, but thread said to pick one.

I forget what year, maybe 03 or 04, but the Zen Tricksters were opening the fest at ILCC. The power went out, so they started playing an acoustic Ripple and everyone gathered closer to the stage, many singing along. Everyone is just feeling so good to be in the fest and now are in a singalong led by Jeff. During the song, they get power back and Klyph brings it back in at just the right time. Just a great moment.

When our friend Sean streaked for technology. :rolling: Not once, but twice. :lol:

Then some 20 year old came over and stripped down for a red bull and $20. :lmao:

Penis overload that year. :lol:

well I've only been to one vibes so far and one of my favorite moments from last year was when the sun was setting during moe.'s set and the breeze was trying to get started and the temperature began to drop just a bit... they were in the middle of Buster>Rebubula>So Long>Buster>Rebubula and I kind of just got lost in the music and the positive feelings bubbling up :)

Hope to have many more amazing Vibes moments this year and in future years :mrgreen:
