We’ve reached the end of Festival Season. At least the bulk of it. We’ll be picking off stragglers for some time yet, but there won’t be many more long weekends away from our desks, sifting through a few thousand photos in the back of a field. With Harvest Jazz & Blues out of the way (see our Patreon feed below) we can indulge in the great sin of our generation: a sedentary lifestyle. Still, it means there’s a lot of festival recaps on the way, and few surprises besides.
Now, someone go wake Billie Joe Armstrong. Here’s everything we covered in September, 2019.
