We’re at the Cornerstone Festival in Bushnell, IL, this week signing up new ONE members. The festival grounds are, literally, in the middle of cornfields. Driving in, there were corn fields in all directions. I walk out of my hotel room in the morning, and there are corn fields. If you’ve never seen them, corn fields are beautiful first thing in the morning, rolling like waves. Corn fields are definitely growing on me.

We got a little creative to get some attention for ONE as the Cornerstone Festival officially opened tonight. Right after they signed up, some new ONE members helped build a small wall of ONE bands. The wall attracted a lot of attention, and we signed up a bunch of people when they stopped to check it out.

Things really get rolling tomorrow, with a full slate of bands on all of the stages. We’ll keep you posted how we’re doing growing the movement in corn fields out in Illinois.
