Summer festival season

// February 18th, 2009 // Uncategorized

So last year I went to Lollapalooza to make up for my …. inability to go to Bonnaroo (long story). It was amazing and i would love to go again but I don’t see it happening. And i flat refuse to got to Bonnaroo.

So where to go this year? I tossed around the idea of Cochella or Burning Man .. but I think I will go to Quincy, WA to the Sasquatch festival. This years lineup looks amazing and the venue, i have heard, is as good or better then Red Rocks in Colorado. Here is the promotional video form the website:
