Interlude: Wrapping Up

It's over. Summer flew by this year, and in the last few weeks of August, the free shows kind of petered out, no thanks to some nasty rain. But there were some good ones. I don't really have the time or energy to go this far back, so I'm just going to post some photos up here, and let them speak for themselves. Looking forward to 2009!
