It’s sunny and 70 degrees today, Tuesday, September 1st, and we can’t help thinking how awesome it would have been to have this weather this past Saturday… Instead, we had a drizzly, cold and cloudy day for the most part, but there were some SERIOUSLY tough mothers out on that bridge, drinking and having a great time watching sweet bands on a bridge.
If you happened to be one of the sissies to not venture out on Saturday, there are plenty of pictures all over Facebook from Nicole Larae, Jenny Armstrong, Evan Rosendahl, and soon we’ll post the official pictures from Paul Carlson Photography.
Thank you to everyone who did make it out to support the bands that travelled so far this year to play for you, and for supporting future years of Fes2val, as well as helping the GR Jaycees raise some money through beer sales!
We’ll be in the planning stages of next year’s event starting NOW, and hope to be back next year bigger and better than ever.
Derek & Raf OUT!

I’m going to use the post to suggest bands for the next 12 months. Well beyond the point you’d be able to try to book them.
super-proud of this event. the spaceship has left the launching pad, and it is definitely way too late to turn back. the rain only enhanced the atmosphere, and amped up the conversations….although bad for tossing beanbags. excited about the future of this here gig/event. i was imagining the other day, smiling big when this event turns 5…10. It is all possible, and everybody involved gets part ownership in its beating heart. ok-ok, yes, imagine a flag waving over my shoulder, and maybe some patriotic music, but radness thus far hath been achieved, and i can’t wait for future endevours, adventures, projects, and beers in the sky for FES2VAL.
