Bumbershoot 2008: Sunday in Review
After hoofing at least 10 miles throughout the day on Saturday we wisely decided to catch the bus most of the way Sunday afternoon. Sunday's schedule featured the least well known acts of the weekend, and oddly enough I ended up catching portions of 16 acts that day (17... more
