It's not as spectacular as other people's and certainly not nearly as much of it but... it's something.

I tried my hand at captioning and some "fancy" editing (I also rearranged the BloodyMania stuff with the ICP show cuz it just seemed a better ending).

I was trying to make a point of not recording stage shows I had already seen or recorded from last year (which you can check out as well on the same channel) but I think I managed to capture a few memories. Albeit a bunch of them from my general campsite area (ie JCW Stage) but it all looks like fun.

Please to enjoy!

See? I was ACTUALLY there!

were there a lot of rv's on the camp ground or was it mostly just guys pitching a tent?

i pitched a lot of tents. Usually walking past the busey booth... oh wait. that's not what you meant.

Ballas was filled with RVs but mostly I saw pitched tents. And Scruffy sleeping on a tarp under the stars.

That's a serious cred going towards In This Moment for pulling that off. Cereal.

Yeah, their performance looked like something out of the film Heavy Metal. When Maria Brinks (the lead singer) shook her ass and whooped the audience actually giggled. Fuck yeah.

i was blown away by in this moment.  i had no idea who the fuck they were - and was honestly really reluctant and hesitant to even bother checking them out.  i kind of expected like an evanescense sound or something and i fucking hate them.  but two people i was camping with were super hype to see them, and i was like fuck it i'll go.  they were amazing.  great performance

^ Whitney Peyton did it last year, but yes, it is a rare thing.

Whitney was still during the bright daylight hours and that's what I and (I think) these other guys were referring to.

Darkness makes the difference. It adds SO much to a performance and I don't think In This Moment would have looked NEARLY as impressive under sunlight.

No shit talkin' on Whitney but it is what it was (and I hate that phrase). Whitney couldn't have held up a darked out slot RIGHT before Twizted at a Gathering... without some kinda stupid shit going down that NEVER happened in this case.

It was some seriously theatrical shit and everyone was just in too much awe. Their stage presence is epic. Even with gaps between songs for costume changes, it was all very satisfying!

In the crowd I overheard people commenting on how good they were and how it was the first time *they can remember a girl headlining a night time Main Stage act.

I got a few videos from them I'll be posting soon and will put up links for 'em.

They were a group I was specifically looking forward to seeing and was NOT disappointed!

they definitely know how to accentuate their strong features.  that mainly bein the singer.
