Sun sets on another Sundae on the Common
So after Saturdays ice cream extravaganza, Ben & Jerry’s Sundae on the Common came to a conclusion, with storming sets courtesy of Ash, Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly, and many more. Delightfully breezy summer sounds complimented the sunny backdrop from (a remarkably cheery) Evan Dando and his mates, The Lemonheads, and fresh brother & sister combo, Slow Club. We also had some ska-tinged power pop from Parka and some dirty rock and/or roll from the Vivian’s and The New York Fund.
Even more so than the day previous, the sunshine was out in force, with one person in the queue for the toilets describing the weather as “…..hotter than the surface of Mercury!!” The grass under the big tree, was at a premium, but with all the free ice-cream on offer, it was very difficult to complain. Spare a thought though for the poor guys dressed in the animal costumes, they earned their money, that’s for sure.
Once again Jerry Greenfield, he who puts the Jerry in Ben & Jerry’s was in attendance, he was even caught, giving it the beans to the Vivian’s set. I had to doth my cap. Here’s hoping next year is just as good, and I’ll have lost the weight I’ve gained from eating all that cookie dough and chocolate chip.
