When I started grad school I had to mostly give up going to see bands all the time, and a lot of the time I miss it. Festivals are their own whole other universe, but there is a very particular thrill involved in all of the running around and shooting a million pictures, pausing for a moment to realize that I was standing in a photo pit taking pictures of a band during the golden hour on the mainstage that was once a band that I first wrote about in 2007 after a free weekday show at a bar that has since closed and then reopened. A little bit of unearned pride in how far people have come and could go next, just in the time I've been watching.
Photos from the weekend are slowly going up here.
