The logo and artwork for the event is pretty great, so here's a good look at it on the back of the stage on the beach. (And, just like Where's Waldo, see if you can pick me out...) After learning a little more about the legends of OBX -- like the fact that Blackbeard tormented the waters off the Outer Banks with his pirate ship, but ultimately met his demise here -- it made the artwork a little more fun. Note Blackbeard on a board.
Janette's Pier is a well-known fishing pier, and reopened a couple of years ago when it was completely rebuilt after being demolished by hurricanes. There are serious fishermen here -- no amateur tourists with fishing poles were spotted -- and they even have cutting boards right on the benches for cleaning the fish on the spot. They also have 3 huge wind turbines on the pier - another Sandy G favorite.
A few additional beach rules to live by which we saw posted nearby:
- Rule number one: don't go number two.
- The seagull you feed today will crap on you tomorrow.
- It's a beach, not an ashtray.
- The minimum required distance between you and the next group is twice the diameter of the largest umbrella.
- For every hour you swim after midnight, please remove one article of clothing.
- If more than three people point at your body, it's time to put on a shirt.
