Wakarusa 

Music/camping festival near Lawrence, KS. Named after the Wakarusa river which means "ass deep" in the local Indian (not sure which tribe) language. Started in 2004, I have been for 2005/2006. Totally sick line-ups both years. 5 stages with music going all night long! Check wakarusa.com
You "Did you catch the late-night Buckethead set in the campground tent?"

Me "Hell yeah, I'm still trying to find my face, it melted off. He is the jedi-master of the guitar!"

You "Wakarusa is the shit!"

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
