While many times we focus on the festival giants here at Hidden Track, it’s clear that bands oftentimes are better off building a tight communal fanbase through small “backyard festivals”. From the almost non-existent security – sure, they were around but things never really warranted any action – to the lax attitude about bringing beer to the stage area, the weekend was enjoyed by all. Camping neighbors seemed friendly and respectful continuing the party long into the night through a communal fire and drum circle.
