yes, this was as awesome as it sounds/looks. twice that, actually – we were there for a good two hours. us+gang’s attendance kinda just fell together with delightful synchronicity, which made it all the more delicious. i so love these beautiful, funky people we’ve fallen in with.

this was also Sagan’s first festival outside of the womb! Joriel kept him parked in the moby further up the hill, so he wasn’t “in the pit” as it were – but Sage loves the bass just as much now as he did at Shambhala.
