    I had the honor to be in Media area Loved every moment and met great folks. ORION was is organized well with all it had to offer, I seen many members of different bands walking thru the grounds like us everyday people. Only regret I waited till end to buy t shirts but my size sold out on each ;( and didnt exchange contacts. This was truly History being made in Atlantic City it had more to offer I believe more then Live8 in Philadelphia I respect Bob Geldof but this was truly amazing. Hope all arrived home safe.
