cuddlyeconomist, Rhys, and I went to The Gorge to see
Lilith Fair. It was the first time we'd been to the venue, and it was pretty spectacular. We saw
A Fine Frenzy,
Colbie Caillat, and
Sheryl Crow, but we left before
Sarah McLachlan took the stage--it is a 3 hour drive each way and we had been there for about 4 hours. Rhys was pretty fussy from the moment we got out of the car until he found another bored kid to entertain each other. None of us particularly cared for
Erykah Badu yet she played an extra long set. There were quite a few more Lilith artists I'd like to have seen, but they weren't playing the Gorge date.
All in all, it was fun and we only managed to spend money on 3 GA tickets, one over-priced hot-dog, and one over-priced soda.
There were a number of the younger artists who were reminiscing about the original Lilith Fair series and how they had seen them as a kid. Yes, it was over 10 years ago and they were probably 12 at the time...
