Day 3. Yawn. All is still quiet. Perhaps this is the equivalent of the opening act: people only show up for the headliner and the opening acts often play to a partially filled venue. Headliner goes on the main stage on Friday. I took a walk in the PATH yesterday afternoon - this is the underground [...]
