I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was the biggest, and best organized, Rock The House thus far.

Everything seemed to be well coordinated between the three stages, so there was always something going on. There were a few times when the acoustic stage (stage C) was hearing sound from Stage A, but overall it seemed to work well.

The performances were strong as well. The Clarks were great as usual, their music always puts people in a good mood.

Yum put on one of the strongest sets I've seen them do yet. Plus they made a good "buffer" between the heavier and more aggressive sounds of Pivot and the happier vibe of The Clarks.

And Pivot! Kicked total ass! I'm hoping that, as Mark Lux said onstage, that this band is back for good, because with performances like this, they have too much good going for them to not continue with it! The new originals pounded, and Mark is still one of the most interesting personalities you'll see on area stages!

Another highlight for me was the Stonycreek Jug Explosion, and the first time I got to see former Badwrench guitarists Jono and Mike in action in a long time! Dave D. on banjo, Mike on mandolin, some acoustic guitars and old timey folksy vibes, very cool!

Also strong sets from The Marauders, Flap Jack'N Jill, John Denver Flight School, Red Collar Company (does this band have a website? I need info on them...), and my first look at Dubmissive - I only caught two songs, but I enjoyed the energy! Lotsa fun!

As I said, Rock The House keeps getting bigger and better every year. It's going to be hard to top this one next year!

I feel things went very well nicely sized crowd the weather was good. The feeling among everyone I spoke with quite good and positive. I heard few complaints.

This years event was very professional with all the right sponsors in place.

Traffic nicely handled buy the local Law enforcement. Its nice to see them on board. It could be quite the opposite if they were not.

I mixed the A stage so I missed some of the acts I wanted to see. I will say I was highly impressed with Dubmissive their front man handled the party people like a pro. He just took me buy complete suprise.
