WFRN's Friend Fest - 2012

This past weekend, WFRN's first Friend Fest took place at Amish Acres in Nappanee, Ind. Artists included Casting Crowns, Mandisa and Sixteen Cities. On Friday around five, I could hear the sound system be tested. From six to midnight was the concert while the one on Saturday went from eleven in the morning to eleven thirty that night. After the final song was performed by Casting Crowns, fireworks were set off to signal the end of Friend Fest.

Though the concert was on Friday and Saturday and I did not go, it turned out well. I know that it turned out well given the fact I live behind Amish Acres. From inside the house, I was able to hear the bands perform and the crowd cheer while feeling the bass. When driving passed the park's playground, you could see that there were a lot of vehicles. As I drove along the south and west sides of Amish Acres before turning around, I could see many more vehicles. There were also vehicles parked across the street on the west side. As I was getting back onto U.S. 6 after having turned around, I saw more vehicles entering Amish Acres.

Here is the full list of those who performed on the Main Stage: Reilly, Hyland, Stellar Kart, Sidewalk Prophets, Sanctus Real, Crowder, Sixteen Cities, Ashes Remain, 7eventh Time Down, Jamie Jamgochian, Chris McClarney, Jeremy Riddle, Jared Anderson, Speaker Clayton King, Jared, Mandisa, Tenth Avenue North and Casting Crowns.

Here is the full list of those who performed on the Coffee House Stage: Marta Koonce, Madisyn, Our Heart Remains, 7eventh Time Down, Sixteen Cities, Tom "The Illusionist" Coverly, Cody Collier, Sing Love Sing, Bethel College Praise Band, Reilly, Southgate Church w/ Vincy, Karyn Williams, Ashes Remain, Moriah Peters and WatersEdge.

The next WFRN Friend Fest will be held once again in Nappanee at Amish Acres on the 21st and 22nd of June, 2013.
