As we had plans to scour the Sumter County Flea Market in the morning and barbeque with some friends in the afternoon, we didn't get out to the fair until around 6:30, just in time to snag tickets ($10!) to see Styx. STYX!
Paul and I have never actually been to a legitimate concert together; this is about as close as we've gotten. Of course, none of the band members were the originals (well there was maybe one, maybe) but it was still pretty rockin'.
We chose seats at the top of the bleachers so we could dance and sing like crazies and no one could bug us about it. Also because the seats that we were assigned were in an awful spot on the side. yuck.
Please watch the first 5 seconds of the first video and watch for the dancer behind Paul. He was into it! And watch the second video of "Come Sail Away", if you want. :)
For the encore we ran down to the front to get a better look.
After the concert we roamed the midway taking in all of the lights and sounds. And smells. We saw this intricate sand sculpture (yet to be finished) of the capitol building, and got our hands on some deep fried Reese's which were dangerously delicious.
And we plan on returning to the fair before it shuts down on Halloween so we can see the exhibits, and the animals, and any other shows they might be having, and also to maybe try deep fried cookie dough, maybe, because, well, fairs are awesome.
