Re: Summers End (2008)
 

The line up is great, the show will surely be top-shelf (as was the 2006 show!)...but I can't make it. There will be too many demands on my time from May-Sept - will try to get back to Europe sometime (only been to England once and Canada several times).

Hope some of you can make it.
