These next set of pictures were all taken last Sunday (April 3rd) during the Dasani Fest, which is a series of free concerts on the off-day of the Final Four tournement. We went downtown and saw Gavin DeGraw (Emily says he is very good), Joss Stone (I had never heard of her), and Kelly Clarkson.

The concert and activities were being filmed for VH1 and a lot of stuff will be on their Top20 Countdown. Sarah made a big poster for Kelly Clarkson and got put on the video screen during the show, while she was sitting on my shoulders holding it up. She was very excited at being on "TV". It was a long day, but the girls had a great time and were very tired by the time we got home that evening.

Here is a view from the bigscreen.
