Anyone here on the board happen to go to this year's NEAR Fest?

I've been to 3 of them ( '01, '02, '03) and enjoyed them immensely. I dodn't go this year's because:

 

1) Money was tight

2) The lineup just didn't excite me (save for Univers Zero).

 

Anyone---?

People are puzzled why I don't dig the Stones, well, I listened to the Stones, I tried, and I tried, and I tried, and--I Can't Get No Satisfaction!

if it had been somewhere closer...
Two of my favourite bands, Planet X and Gordian Knot, plays there, and Yezda Urfa are some cool fellows as well, and so are Hidria Spacefolk...

Sea of Tranquility has a good review of the show. Hidria Sapcefolk was the surprise up-staging band of the event. They nearly couldn't play! Their equipment showed up just before sound-check.
