It must be a sign of getting older. These days, I prefer hanging out with a small bunch of friends, over dinner and maybe a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Ok, I’ll admit, any kind of alcohol..but that’s beside the point. The point is, I don’t fancy crowded places, standing along with a sweaty bunch of teenagers (that makes me feel older!). But last July, when I heard of who’s going to be at the Singfest, I had to make an exception.
I bought the ticket not thinking of who was going with me. But thankfully, I didn’t have to go alone. A bunch of friends came along for the experience.
I must say, the organizers put a lot of thought to the festival. They gave free plastic sheets so you can use it to sit on the grounds, plus fans to fight off the heat. Their idea of getting people to change their money for paper coupons was a bit inconvenient, but that’s ok.
That’s the crowd waiting to get in to the concert grounds. I liked that getting into the grounds was very organized. They let us go in by batches so we wouldn’t stumble over each other.
All in all, the singfest was great and definitely worth the expensive tickets. I hope they make it bigger and better next year. and i hope jason comes back!
Here’s a video I took of Jason Mraz’s performance.
