"and we hope you'll join us next year for our 14th annual Kaboom...
unless Cumulus slashes the budget."
I caught the tail end of KT's show as I was working myself into position, & was down front & center for LLB's & the fireworks (for the 1st time I might add), and just before they started Dave said that the fireworks were the biggest in all of CA this year..."We spent a little more money this time." So hopefully that was with Cumulus' foreknowledge.
I also didn't notice any really new pyrotechnics, but the whole show was much fuller. Often where you'd only have 1 or 2 explosions going on, they had 4, 5, 6 or 7 simultaneously. Also there were ground level fountains & cascades going almost constantly, which those of you further away might not have been able to see. Really a great display.
And LLB's were really good, too. I have now seen them twice at free KFOG events, but I'm gonna have to actually spend some money to see them at one of their shows this summer, because each set I saw so far wrapped in under an hour. I really think they are best when they start jamming & alos there are a couple of tracks from their first album that I hope to hear, but haven't yet.
