\"Rusted<\/a><\/p>\n

Yesterday afternoon Julie<\/a> and I met up with Dom and Kelly at Old St. Pats for the World’s Largest Block Party<\/a>. Of course the headliner for this even just so happened to be Rusted Root<\/a>. I tried post the video for Send Me On My Way<\/em> but of course the record company<\/a> doesn’t allow that (not to mention I just figured out how to technically do it). But I digress, here’ a link to the video<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The block party setup was pretty good, for $35 you got entry, 5 beers and access to the highest concentration of portable toilets the world has ever seen. The food was good, Rusted Root was fabulous, there was a hint of 1996 in the air. The word on the street was that Rusted Root once made it onto a mix tape created by legendary music critic Myles Tersnak<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After seeing Rusted Root up close and personal we headed out to find a bar. The first place we stopped was the photo above. As you can see I’m not really pleased. The reason for my displeasure would be that we didn’t meet the dress code to enter. I must confess that something like this was bound to happen to me sooner rather than later but I didn’t expect it from that guy behind me in the photo.<\/p>\n

I didn’t want to drink there anyways so we ended up at Jaks Tap<\/a> to end the evening. The rest of the photographs are on Flickr<\/a>.<\/p>\n

* Side Note:<\/p>\n

I couldn’t resist. Here’s a clip of Rusted Root from Bonaroo in 2006.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
