Nine-time Grammy award winner Sheryl Crow made a stop on her “Detour” tour to Common Ground Thursday night. One of the most crowded nights of this year’s fest so far, everyone swayed and sang along to her most notable songs, like "Leaving Las Vegas" and "If it makes you Happy."

The 10th annual Common Ground Festival ended with a blast of Stones-inspired rock ‘n’ roll and massive radio hits. With co-headliners Jet and 3 Doors Down closing out the week, it seems the fest saved its youngest and most powerful weapons for last.
