This may be the pinnacle of festivals for me. I did both weekends and got a taste of all time greats as well as up and comers lying in wait. I got ‘VIP’ for doing brand activation and drank to my hearts content. I discovered new bands in a swath of genres and I realized that some big timers are just a waste.
