Many of you may be aware that last weekend I went to Montgomery for the Jubilee CityFest. Essentially, two days of concerts on three different stages across downtown. There were all types of artists and groups and music represented. Just a few acts that were there:
- LL COOL J
- Hinder
- 3 Doors Down
- Montgomery Gentry
- Candlebox
- Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
- Darius Rucker (former lead singer of Hootie and the Blowfish)
- Tone Loc
- Bow Wow
Unfortunately, many of the concerts were happening at the same time. This means I didn't see everyone I wanted to and I had to choose in some cases. I missed LL Cool J and Hootie. I saw Hinder and Candlebox and 3 Doors Down. They were the main reasons we went anyway.
Friday night after the concerts ended, we went back to the hotel and discovered we had just missed LL COOL J, who was staying in the same hotel. We were a little bummed but it was cool to know that he was there.
Hinder was so awesome as was 3 Doors Down. Candlebox surprised me by doing a little montage/homage to some great musicians such as Crazy Train by Ozzy and Zeppelin's Immigrant Song and a couple of others. It was very cool.
In between Friday night's concerts and Saturday night's concerts we needed something to do and on the spur of the moment, we decided to hit the Montgomery Zoo. It was fun and interesting and I highly recommend it to anyone.
I have around 350 pictures of the whole weekend. I will work on getting them up and link them here. Not all probably, but the best ones.
'Til next time.
