| The first full blown night at the Honey festival brought mixed results. The Bobcats, after a shaky start, blew out Perry County Central. The booths opened with little fanfare. The crowd seemed a lot thinner this year. Part of the reason being that the festival is so spread out, it gives the perception of less people. Personally, I think there were alot fewer than years past. The entertainment was good, with local band Gravel Road finishing off the night with some original and favorite rock songs. All in all they all did a good job. Mother nature cooperated with no rain and a nice night. |
