A recap of the best tweets, photos and moments of Day 1 in Steamboat.

The day began with a sighting of Luke Bryan and only got better from there.  Zac Wilkerson was the unquestioned champion of the media suite based on the many texts we received telling us how awesome he was (we know!).  The power went out during Josh Grider‘s set and he took it genuinely acoustic with a sing along of his biggest songs.  John Fullbright took everyone to church.  Day 2 awaits.

Todd Purifoy’s entire Day 1 album.  Amazing as usual.

John Fullbright makes the choir say amen.

Zac Wilkerson owns the media lounge.

Tonight I witnessed @joshgrider sing with a fire alarm and @TpTroubadours sing to a potato #mf16 #day1
