as interstate 77 and 26, merged we ended up being right behind them! perfect timing. in the middle of the night we got tired of listening to cds, so we turned on the radio. good times bad times came on, and then when it went off we changed the station. it came on another station right then, so we listened to it again and said that it would be cool if phish covered it. of course they did b/c they can read my mind. i sometimes believe this. 

when we finally got to big cypress, our car was about 200 yards from the entrance. once the gates were open, we were in there in less than an hour! once again, our timing couldn't be better. us and some other friends that we were going to meet at the show had two wave radios (we returned them once back home). we contacted them once inside to describe where we were at... "about ten tent rows from the concert area near the village." "that's where we're at," he said, and i looked around, and their tent was one row behind ours, three tents down. 

out of the whole place, they were right there! for anyone who went... you know that was next to impossible. it was huge! the whole thing went perfectly. it seems that it always does on these trips.
