We got close to a mosh pit &#8211; about four layers of people away &#8211; at one point a dude came flying out in our general direction and scattered the people and almost knocked us all down.   Just close enough to get a sense &#8211; not so close to be in any dnager.<br \/>\nWe moved at a slow pace because of Brent&#8217;s crutches so we walked and sat a lot.<br \/>\nAs the day moved into evening, we switched to the main stage &#8211; five great bands  -I kept in my earplugs 50% of the time to make sure I could hear Ozzy :).  We had great seats with good sight lines &#8211; and thank heaven we were not on the lawn.<br \/>\nOzzy was great &#8211; all in all a great way to spend the last day o summer vacation.<br \/>\nThe bus is pulling up to Detroit Airport so I have to cut this short.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am on the bus to the airport at 7:15 AM entoute to Open University of the Netherlands and the Ticer Digital Libraries course in Tilburg, NL.
