The Courier-Post has an article and pictures of the pre-concert festivities and the heat at the Camden show. Too bad it doesn't mention the torential rain. View the story at http://www.courierpostonline.com/

That rain was something. My wife and I were unfortunately two of the lawn people. That sky that came across from Philadelphia was right out of a movie, and, just as Jimmy went on, the sky opened up with buckets of water, lightning, thunder, and strong winds. Soaked to the bone, I ended up driving home naked, and, of course, had to stop and get gas. Somebody upstairs wasn't smiling on me that night, but, Jimmy sounded great. Terrific show, especially "I Love The Now!"

I was there too. We pulled into the parking lot around 10am. We had a bar set up next to us and everyone was festive as always. It was a hot day and lots of sun, until the concert. The rain gods had cometh. It put a d*mper on things because we were on the lawn. But we made it through. Always love listening to Fins, that warmed us up.

Yeah, that rain was something else! I was amazed at the crowd - it seemed just as large at 10:30 as it was at 8:00. I think everyone enjoyed themselves, especially during "The Weather is Here . . ."! It was great that Jimmy sang straight through (with no break) for 2 1/2 hours!
