We’ve waited two long years for a big concert festival. As a family, we lost those experiences forever. Lockdowns took away outdoor entertainment, one in a series of unscientific, arbitrary, and harmful measures that have reduced the health and quality of life for billions around the globe.

Tomorrow we head out to the Philadelphia Folk Festival for four nights of music and camping. My girlfriend and her daughter are joining us and I get to share some of Mary’s favorite music with them. Having mostly missed out on concerts for two years, I’m sure to be extra emotional when I hear Michael Franti and Dom Flemons (my younger son was one year old when he first saw the Carolina Chocolate Drops) perform some of our favorites. The joyous tears just might out do the grieving ones.
Such a detailed list! Can’t wait for the fest. Hoping to see y’all 😀
