To recap, for those of you that don’t live near a farm, here’s what corn looks like:
The Sweet Corn Festival even had corn entertainment, not just corn and corn dogs and funnel cake. Watched a local favorite, a band called Cornmeal which was an amped-up bluegrass deal that favored Grateful Dead-length solos, which were greatly appreciated by their dancing, tie-dyed fans.
Note the pile of Birkenstocks in the foreground, put together for safekeeping, Strength in numbers.
My night at the Corn Festival was finished off with a Led Zepplin tribute band called ZoSo. The band's commitment to replicating Zep was truly something to behold. It was night so the photo's not the greatest but just check out the gauzy shirt and rock and roll hair of a bygone era.
ZoSo is beyond a tribute band and I would place them in the higher category of "re-enacters". Some guys like to pretend they're Ulysess S. Grant in the Civil War and other guys like to pretend they're Robert Plant in the greatest band of all time. They're all living the dream, each in their own way.
