EP. 138: Times We Can't Let Go (FEST 20 Recap)

While the streets of Gainesville, FL were packed with costume-clad college students and frustrated NCAA football locals, a sea of punks from across the globe could be seen walking with a purpose to catch a slew of rock acts inside over ten venues in downtown GNV. The 20th installment of DIY punk rock's best kept secret, The Fest, has once again rocked us all for a weekend of freak flag flying camaraderie, live music, comedy, and even wrestling. Here I will take you down to a trip within the swamps of the southeast for the yearly trek to the punk rock Mecca that is downtown Gainesville Florida every Halloween weekend.

Twin Peaks Sessions features: Sincere Engineer (peep that drum setup by Adam Beck!)
