Anya, this is simply awesome of you to post about festival activities. The festival out in Wisconsin? Wow, I've a l w a y s wanted to hear Ferron in concert. And the festival in northern California (Russian River), sounds so wonderful.
I wonder, also, in light of all the political upheaval we've seen in recent weeks, if someone would go to lots of festivals around the country and film a documentary. You know, like interview attendees, the musicians, give those who can't go a taste of the music and the atmosphere. Take the pulse of festivals, from location to location.
But, how nice to learn about upcoming summer festivals!
