I arrived early to hear and see the first three acts but had to leave before the last one unfortunately due to a prior engagement of mine . Rosie McGee had a booth there as well and I went over to say hello . The first band was "Reckoning" The second band was "Wake of the Dead" The Bass player (Troy) was playing a 1991 Essence just like mine ! Troy and I spoke after his set. The third band was "Totally Dead" I spoke with both Matt (guitar) and Will (drums) . Matt was playing his green Stratocastor with Alembic pickups. sonicus Senior Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 3681 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Sunday, October 19, 2014 - 8:50 am:    Here is Matt, deep in Guitar land Two singing drummers ! sonicus Senior Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 3682 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Sunday, October 19, 2014 - 9:02 am:    Sunshine (Garcia) Becker was the MC .
