An Absolutely Gorgeous Day in Railroad Park on Memorial Day (Hot But Still Gorgeous)

Yesterday was hot as the dickens in Railroad park but the people, the music, the sights and the overall ambiance made it enjoyable and bearable.  Below is just a short video of just one of the bands (I did all of you favorite and didn't include the video where you could here me singing as I was recording.  The video is just a soundbite. 

It's 91 Degrees in the Shade and Railroad Park is Heating Up for Memorial Day

The event started this morning at 10 o'clock and will go on all day long until around 9:30 or 10:00 tonight. I rode by to snap up some early photos but I suspect when I do back to enjoy the concert (early this afternoor), it will be a packed park.

Cars are already starting to line the streets. But an attendee told me that the best of the bands start around 1:00 this afternoon. But you know how folks are. Everybody wants to come early to get a good parking space and a seat front and center.
