The 2010 Ethnic Fair was a tremendous improvement over the 2009 event. The crowd was substantially larger, due in part to the wonderful weather in the Berkshires and the ease of finding (and getting to) parking. Also noticeable was a greater selection of vendors and food options throughout the Fair. However, it was odd to see some of the stores in the immediate Fair real estate to actually be closed for the afternoon. Rebel Sound Records saw more new faces and it was nice to meet them. Had we been closed it would've been a different story. We were visited by Mayor Ruberto, Bill from the Garden, Joe Wilk's parents, Cruz "Man About Town" Swinson, Jon Plaid, Jess Derby, PRJ, NY Kelley, Shaun of the City, Mr. Hitchcock, the future Mr. & Mrs. Colin Damaged, Jay of Bare Bones/Mudlark/Low Character, Zach McCarthy, Jon "Stop & Shop" Hanson, some dogs drinking out of the complimentary dog water in front of the store, MAC, Allie of the Furiousity, the WTBR on-air maniacs and more people whom I probably forgot.
