Ronney a Bust

About 150 people watched part of Rooney. They are a band that sound better recorded than live. The drums were a little much. They had a little problem about where they were. At one point the lead singer said that it smelled like manure.. duh. He wanted to know how many people lived around here.

The best songs of the evening were the "cover songs" explained by them that they were songs that were recorded by other people. These showed their roots. The Band was one of their cover songs.. The weight.. you know this one put the weight on Maddy.. etc. Also they played the Del Shannon "Runaway" I wonder I wwwwwwww wonder.

The boys from Pismo had a second class cinnamon roll. They were not the blue ribbon folks that usually do this concession. There was a both with a credible gelato. It was selling huge waffle cones too. One guy left with a pile of gelato in the cone. Someone asked him how much he payed.. he said 12 dollars.

Flex your power was passing out free light bulbs and a pen if you promised to conserve energy.

There was the bungie jump. One gal, dressed in typical valley "out" costume.. jeans and a camisole lost what her top was holding in temporarily in the bungie jump.

The farm vehicles were there to ogle. Their prices and what they do were posted too.


The destruction derby was wonderful. There were 5 cars in each heat. Lots of sliding around in the mud with high powered cars. There were even some corporate sponsored cars. One was advertising Jake's hoof trimming service. Many were sponsered by Moore's auto parts and victory heads.

The station wagons did not seem to have a particular advantage like they usually do. One of the cars was a Lincoln town car. It really did well. One of the station wagons looked like a little Renault at the end crunched from both sides.

Night time temps were moderate.. in the 80's no sweater needed.

The Who is playing tonight.
