Rock am Ring-the music.

Again I have forgotten who all performed. I was surprised which bands were a great and enjoyable performance and which ones sucked. Sadly, whoever did the sound for the main stage did a poor job. I couldn't sing along with Tank Serjian cos I couldn't hear him. The Nightwish group ended up leaving the stage for a short time until the sound could be fixed....or rather patched up.

Simple Plan were on the main stage for the first time and they were so pleased about this, it was embarrassing. They also lost quite a few brownie points for making the moshpit do the stupid "Rings of Fire". The numbers are kept so low, that 2 of these rings were able to be done. Of course, we ended up with our own ring of fire in front of us, beside us, behind us.....sigh.

Kid Rock gave a stellar performance and finished it with a ballad. lol.Offspring, Jimmy Eat World, Disturbed, Aler Bridge, Seether, all performed well and professionally.

Metallica were their usual. We didn't even stay for the whole set. We impressed that despite the sound difficulties, the unbelievable number of people present, and how much alcohol was being consumed, that everyone was still very well-behaved.
