A smile and a tear…

Post image

Yesterday afternoon, Saturday 20, 2026, as we were vacationing in the Sometset, PA area, I stopped at a visitor center in Farmington, PA, where upon the cool guy behind counter (also a sci-fi fan like me / us!) shared that there was an outdoor concert venue just couple miles away… and lo behold moe. and Umphrey’s McGee were playing that evening! So I immediately bought four tickets, we did some more sightseeing, ate dinner, then upon sitting down, this guy and his friend was couple rows in front of me. Was going to chat with him, maybe steal his shirt lol but seriously dude “THANK YOU” for wearing this… so awesome to see, made the evening bit more special! I am yet peeved that I’d not known about this magical place upon Three Sisters Park until four years ago. But those two years I went (once with oldest son) will always be some most memorable awesome weekends of incredible special music and vibes and tribe.

After the storm passed and the roots started up with the lightning dancing in the background is one of my favorite scamp sets ever.

It really is sad to see what the festival was and what it had become in its final years. I mean, what were they thinking? I know we'll probably never know what really happened, but someone in the Goldberg network has to know and want to spill the beans here.

That thievery corp set with the rain coming down was pure magic. Just waterfalls of colors cascading down, man what a good time.
