For all the talk about drunks at NTIF, and out 50,000 people there have been some; I didn't see any. Not one.

I love the pics, Phil.

If you wanted to sit and listen to music, on the main stages - there were few distractions. The stages and audience areas are pretty well organized. Each seats about 800 with standing room for half again that number - while festival traffic can pass in view and within sound - beyond the seating.

It is less then an ideal, concert sort of environment - but managed pretty well for an indoor facility and a very large crowd.

Most people attending enjoyed the event, braved the crush of the crowd patiently and saw some great music.
