Broadlands live 2009!

Thanks to everyone who helped put on a great show last night. We had so much fun--you guys did a wonderful job!!

 

Wow! That was the best concert ever at Broadlands Live! We had a great time singing all the best songs from the past! Great Job to all involved in putting on the show. Thanks!

 

what fabulous feedback to wake up to- THANKS GUYS! I am so glad so many of you had a good time- VIP dd keep you dancing and singing all night long! wish we could have gone longer- they were more than THRILLED with such an energetic and responsive crowd.

thanks to everyone who came out- it was another beautiful night in the Broadlands. for those of you who have never been- COME OUT! the final show is a special one on Sept. 11th, and promises to be simply spectacular.

 

I felt like I was in a dream when Bad Luck was playing Tuesday's Gone and their bubble machine was kicking out zillions of bubbles...I was just so happy! Great band!!

 

Why so many security guards and guns?

 

have you ever witnessed a pattern of behavorial issues or criminal mischief there...?

ZACTLY.

outside of one or two isolated incidents each season, we have very few behavioral issues at Broadlands Live and I strongly believe the security presence has a lot to do with it. we have PLENTY of troublemakers in Ashburn that would likely make trouble if they thought they could get away with it.

any issues we HAVE had have quickly been squashed without interrupting the event and almost no one even knowing there even WAS an issue. they do a FANTASTIC job for us, and i'd rather they HAVE guns and not need them over the opposite.

and i'd much rather answer your queston shim, than answer the other question which would be "xxx happened when we went to Broadlands Live- why don't you have better security?"

 

Guns? I've noticed plenty of security, but never noticed they actually had guns.

 

oh yeah- most of them are quite buff- triceps that are ROCK hard, bulging biceps straining the sleeves of those black Sexton polo shirts... oh-- you mean STEEL guns...

yyyeah. they have those too. hee heee!

 

HERE WE GO AGAIN!!! this Friday date is the final show of the year, and it will be a spectacular event showcasing the finest American music in town!

Opening band Dixie Power Trio will have you dancing to zydeco and jazzy fun tunes: http://www.dixiepowertrio.com/Listen.html

Let's start doing the anti-rain dance.

 

quick! everyone throw down grass seed that nees rain to flourish! NOBODY should wash and wax the car, turn on a sprinkler or plan an outdoor party- these will surely trigger rainstroms... lol
