Q. What bookings were you most proud to get?
A. fun. (playing June 27) is a perfect example. It was out. It just wasn't going to happen. Then a couple of events popped up (around Summerfest) where it made sense not to make it a one-off anymore, so I think they came back from Europe to do it.
The Eagles were a tough one. It looked like it wasn't going to happen at the time. And the manager of the band, Irving Azoff, is a good friend to this festival and is always going out of his way to find things for us. Then it popped up again, and he asked, 'What are you thinking?" and it was all over. And that's a sold-out show right now, so that's a great way to close the festival.
