  27-08-2017 23:08 via ocregister.com
  
  ANAHEIM Noah Ikari is only 8-years-old, but he could easily explain why he was one of thousands of people who showed up to the Disney parks before dawn Sunday.
  “I was born too early,” he said.
  His grandmother, Lisa Kott, summed it up this way: “He’s our little CHOC miracle.”

  Looking over the crowd at “It’s Not Dead 2” at Glen Helen Amphitheater in Devore Saturday, Aug. 26, there was a mixed sea of ages, ethnicities and fashions. It seemed as if more people had turned out because of the popularity of festivals than of punk.
