The Strawberry Festival was a huge success. We kept expecting to get nervous, this being the biggest gig we'd ever played, but instead we all just felt more and more excited. Getting up in front of that crowd felt like the most natural thing in the world. When we took the stage people swarmed the hill and we jumped into the set invigorated by it. We put in 200% and had a great time. Every break between songs was filled with cries of "one more!" Each change in a song was followed by cheers. We could not have asked for a better audience.
Scott and Carm stole hearts with their version of "Let Go." It was their first time performing it together. Dave looked on proudly while Carm's face was projected five stories high on the screen behind us. After we played we were on cloud nine. We spent the rest of the weekend taking pictures with anyone who asked us, signing whatever people wanted, and feeling giddy. The people we met at the festival were so consistently nice and so genuinely excited about music.
