Sanctus Real

I had been looking forward to last Saturday’s festival outside Monterey, CA.

First off, the temperature was in the 50’s & 60s, which was a wonderful departure from the 100 degree festivals we’d been playing at. Second off, it’s held inside a curvy, hilly racetrack where only two weeks earlier, I watched on the television the only MotoGP World Championship race in the United States. What’s Moto GP, you ask? It’s a bunch of these guys doing this stuff…

Crazy motorcycle racers

Our visit to Leguna Seca wasn’t quite as dangerous as theirs. Saturday morning, we flew from Detroit and Nashville into San Jose and were picked up and driven to the festival. The Afters were there. Tenth Avenue North was there. TobyMac. Phil Keaggy. It was a great day of music to be apart of. After we finished playing our set, we hung out with KLOVE. Thank you Spirit West Coast for having us. Thank you everyone who watched us and came and said hello.

Once all our duties were performed and the sun began to set, turning a comfortable breezy day into a frigid cold night, it was time to leave. The band hopped back in the van and rode off to San Jose. They had to catch early flights home, but I didn’t. I arranged plans to ditch those jokers and stay out in area with family and go exploring, which I did for next 3 days and will tell you about tomorrow.

Tomorrow...
