As she slept it off, her friends took photos of her. While Brad Paisley was toasting "Alcohol" and all the crazy things that it makes you do, a tall, 30-something blonde plopped down two seats away from me, bent over and vomited. The eternally charming Cyrus (loved his rockin' sendup of himself, "I Want My Mullet Back") promised that his daughter Miley Cyrus would play a free concert next year at We Fest. He had her sing backup but didn't let her have a solo spotlight. Billy Ray Cyrus promised a special guest and delivered Minnesotan Ashlee Hewitt, who finished fifth on NBC's "Nashville Star," which he hosted this summer. As the rain arrived (the other two days were gorgeous), she responded by shifting into overdrive and bringing out Little Big Town to harmonize on Sugarland treatments of Dream Academy's "Life in a Northern Town" and Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar on Me." Nettles sings hard, works hard and delivers her message with twangy emotion. Nettles carried on like a sweaty barroom singer on a small platform in front of a packed nightclub rather than a big star on a mammoth stage in front of 48,000 people. Jennifer Nettles, Kristian Bush and band rocked hard in a no-frills presentation as a tablesetter for Kenny Chesney. Who gave the best performance? Sugarland. Here's the longhand wrapup of the camping-and-country festival featuring 18 acts on two stages over three days. That's the TXT MSG summary of the 26th annual We Fest, which ended early Sunday morning.
