For as long as I can remember I have been called an βold soul,β or told I was born in the wrong decade. I have spent countless years listening to bands that I am too young to have ever seen live, and I live by Grateful Dead mottoes as if they are a foundation for my life.
For music-loving parents, bringing kids to their first festival is equivalent to others taking their child to Disney World for the first time. Parents experience the magic of the festival through their childrenβs eyes, sharing in the innocent and immense enthusiasm of a child.
