This event has become a tradition at Merlefest. The Hillside Album Hour crowd was HUGE and very loud. We estimated 8-10,000 people on the hill sitting on the grass. The Waybacks played the Beatles “Abbey Road” from start to finish. Elvis Costello came on and added his vocals at one point. The crowd was so large I never even got close to the stage. Matt, my new friend from Athens, Georgia and I just soaked up the show from the side of the stage. It was great. Very cool. I am hoping to find a bootleg of this audio on the internet. I would like to hear it again.
