I’d been sleeping on Adam and Becky’s couch for about a month when they invited me to Music and Mayhem an annual three day free punk-rock music festival that was invitation only.

There is a certain delerium in this piece--the kind that comes from unrelenting celebrations of life as these kinds of music festivals. You captured this perfectly, and brought on me a wash of nostalgia.

This put me right in the moment of something I've never done, and made me see why other people would enjoy it!
