Ok, so each year Mobile AL (thats my home turf) has this kick azz music festival that runs from Friday to Sunday, covers about 10 city blocks in down town and has bands that play from noon until... each night.
This year the line ups included Kid Rock, Nelly, Better than Ezra.... the list goes on and on....
Anyhoo, being the weird business that I am in, I contract with the city and do things to help.... facilitate the event. Our team worked about 30 hours in the three days and I always take the Busa there to save me from walking, besides, the stage managers love to check out the bike!

Thought yall might like a few pics!

Before the event...

This is called the Launching Pad stage, smaller acts jam on this one. I rode over there to conduct business and snapped a shot. There was a band doing a photo op at the time.

The Mobile PD have this really skilled troupe of biker cops that do Mardi Gras parades each year and I love to stop and mix it up with them. These guys can REALLY ride those big bikes. They do some really cool riding displays during Mardi Gras wherein they turn in really tight circles and do (air show like) routines for the crowds. They can da*ned near turn those bikes in circles no bigger than two parking spots - matter of fact, biker cops from as far as Michigan come here during Mardi Gras to train with our men in blue, ok, this was BayFest but they are still out policing the deal. Anyway, I had to get a shot of one of them... This guy told me that he had never ridden before he took the MPD course!
Cool dude and I told him to come check out the .oRg to see himself.... Hope ya made it!!!

Thats it folks.
BayFest is over, I feel like I have been pulled through a keyhole and NEED some sleep.
Yall ride safe!
 
Looks like a good time, even if you are working. Summer is over here, so it looks even better to me.
 
Guess I will add my pix from BayFest.

My attempt at trying to take a picture while standing on a stage and everyone rocking out on it.

This is Candlebox from Friday night. After I took this pic I went back stage, good thing too the railing broke and 3 people fell off. OUCH!
