Check out this account of the prominent festival from a lover of liberty.
I feel the author's pain. I need to mentally prepare myself for the coming onslaught of progressive causes as the American festival season kicks into high gear. I've gotten pretty good at avoiding the animal rights/fair trade/global warming petition folks at festivals. I deal with politics every day in my day job; when I'm at a festival I just want to relax and listen to the music. But if I'm feeling feisty at Warped Tour or Virgin Fest this year, I might just bust out my Che-Guevara with Mickey Mouse ears t-shirt. Maybe then the statists will be too offended to talk to me.


Speaking of festivals, I hope everyone got their tickets to Virgin Mobile FreeFest because it sold out super fast, which one would expect since it was free. Should be a good time.
