The inaugural Catawba Farm Fest was plagued by flash flooding and thunderstorms during flash flood warnings on Saturday and even more rain on Sunday. It caused a lot of shows  to be cancelled — which certainly disappointed a lot of late-night Papadosio fans, but it was Virginia Tech property, and they made the rules.

Not long after the wonderful Richmond Indigenous Gourd Orchestra played its set, a flash flood came through, halting the action on and off through the rest of the night. Better luck next time, Farm Fest.

    Flash flood warnings. Not an actual flood.

    OK, some wicked rains during flash flood warnings. Welcome to the blog, John.
