Awesome end product guys! I really like what you did with the song, the assorted footage and the video editing!
 I apologize for leaving the party so soon... it's been a hectic year for me so far. I've been traveling pretty much the whole time since leaving immediately after we recorded the backup vocals scene.  I just got home a few days ago.. this is the first time I've seen the finished video... hats off to everybody who made an active contribution to the project!  It was very gracious of you to keep me in the video considering how little I contributed. Thanks for that!
 
 If there is in fact a HERBSTOCK 2 next year, count me in! Next time I'll make it a point not to schedule my time so tightly that I can't stay for more than 2 hours!
 
 And to any other forum members who might find such a meeting enjoyable: I strongly recommend that you take time to come to HERBSTOCK 2 if you can. None of us are getting any younger. What's possible now might not be possible later.

I have to start lining up a jumbo sleeping bag, air mattress and tent NOW!!
 From Herbfest to Herbstock in one year! The late Michael Lang would be proud! He did Woodstock. We do Herbstock!!
 
 Looking at the "distance circle" we could probably see as many as about 8-10 more people.
 
 As far as the video Pat, you contributed, you get some face time!! I even got my dog into it and he did nothing but lay around all day!
 
 I think Herbstock, maybe with a little stage area near the firepit, with Charlie's small PA, would be a BLAST!!! Now THAT video, wow! I'd actually buy another Canon video camera like the one I have now to have one fixed and one moving cam. Plus drone footage... YEAH!!

I think we will need a lot more security for the next event.
 
 Herb could probably handle a large part of the threat assessment and response with what he already has, but it looks like we might need to call in for reinforcements if we have more than the expected number of pup tents and hippies on the premises.

Everybody I have contacted from the original Woodstock is dead! I wanted Hendrix to do the National Anthem. I wanted Janis Joplin to sing Bobby McGee. Paul Butterfield to play some blues. Jerry Garcia to do some slide work...
 Plus we need to get Herb to sign off on bringing in all the dirt to make a hill for the mud slide. That may be a union thing...

Pat, you need to "stake" out where you are going to pitch your tent. (See what I did there?)
 By the time we got to Herbstock
 We were half a dozen strong...

Eddie, First, I love your new pic!  When was that taken!  Second, I have been practicing my Jimi Solo for Herbstock. But, so far I have blown up all of my amps, and three replacement speakers. Do you think the Big Muff is a bad idea?? |  |  |  |  |

I'd add the Bad Stone...
 That pic was from about 2015 which I believe was the last year I played the reunion shows with that particular band. Then I "cartoonized" the pic, to match my cartoon like playing.
 
 Do we have any drummers here? We could use one for the backline at Herbstock.
 
 Well, I came upon a child of God
 He was walking along the road
 And I asked him, "Tell me, where are you going?"
 And this he told me
 Said, "I'm going down to Hartley's Farm
 Gonna join in a rock 'n' roll band
 Got to get back to the land
 Set my soul free"
 
 We are stardust, we are golden
 And we all use our PG software
 And we're glad we've got our forums
 Where we can all share
 
 Well, then can I walk beside you?
 I have come to lose the smog
 And I feel myself a cog
 In somethin' turning
 And maybe it's the time of year
 Yes, and maybe it's the time of man
 And I don't know who I am
 But life is for learning
 
 We are stardust, we are golden
 And we all use our PG software
 And we're glad we've got our forums
 Where we can all share
 
 By the time we got to Herbstock
 We were 'bout a dozen strong
 And everywhere was a song
 And a celebration
 
 And I dreamed I saw a tiny drone
 Over where the critters stay
 Shooting footage for a film
 To remember the day by
 
 We are stardust, we are golden
 And we all use our PG software
 And we're glad we've got our forums
 Where we can all share
 
 And the first rule of Herbstock?
 
 NO Stairway!

My late son (died in a motorcycle accident in '85) had a saying he uttered quite often:
 There's lots of things I've said and done
 But I ain't ever had too much fun!
 
 This video epitomizes that saying. Well done and good to see ya'll live. Thanks for letting us in on the good time! Ya'll some pretty cool and talented dudes!

Too Much Fun is an interesting song. Daryle Singletary released a song by that name in 1995, but I remember it more as a Commander Cody song from the 70s that Bill Kirchen wrote. THAT version I have played more times than I can count, and that's a motto many people live by. You son, based on the date of his unfortunate passing, had to have known the Commander Cody song, so we know he had good taste in music!!
 Bill Kirchen was a great player, mindful of "The Telemaster", Danny Gatton.
 
 And yep, that day was way too much fun. Join us next year for Herbstock and you can get in on the fun in person!!

Yes, hard to believe, but soon it will be spring and we will be rolling around in the mud at Herbstock.
 
 I am practicing my Jimi, and getting out my lighter.
 
 Boy 2023 is gonna be fun.

Cheryle Anne, come on up to Herbstock. It's a bit of a drive for you, but we have people coming from 12 hours away. And remember people drove across the country in 1969 for Woodstock and the infamous Altamont Free concert.

So any reports on Woodstock II, which I believe was called "Herbstock" in honor of a child who was on stage at Woodstock and tried to take the guitar away from Jimi, but who now lives in seclusion in the woods of North Carolina.
 
 I hear Jimi may have made an appearance and some great music was made.
 
 And they chanted the praises of BIAB late into the night like ancient Druids of yore.
 
 What happened?
 
 Are the "Rites of April" now a thing, a social movement??
