Of the 7, these are the ones I can remember: OtR, Living Sacrifice,
Jennifer Knapp, and Ballydowse.  I think the 77s and/or P.O.D. 
might be in the 7 as well...

Ballydowse were cool.  Celtic punk!!  No lie, they were great.  
Almost like if Iona were a punk band.  And I think they had 9-11 
people onstage playing... tons of different instruments and 
sounds.  Very VERY fun!!!

I was napping during Rich's set at the Main Stage.  But since we got
to C-stone late that year, we were camped on the hill right by the 
Main Stage.  I woke up to see the last half of Rich's set.  I was 
glad I woke up.

Same thing happened to me for Iona's set that year.  I woke up to
brilliant lights and wonderful celtic music coming from the stage
only a few 100 yards off.  I was kicking myself for only catching
the tailend of their show.

It's a start. :)  Caedmon's Call always pops up in my rotation.

Like a coin hiding in the corner trying not to be swept,
