Festival Fans can be found in
high numbers in the mosh pits of
various music festivals across the
state. Mostly nocturnal, a Festival
Fan will find rest under trees in a
park or crashing on the couch of
the friend of a friend.
During daylight hours, you may glimpse A Peaceful Warrior just off in the dis-
tance by a perfect bend in the river with golden sunlight dancing off the water.
After a perfect day of fishing, they can be found sitting by a small pup-tent in
the soft glow of a campfire under shooting stars on a clear night.
Carries with them a fly-rod, net, and a palpable
feeling of peace with the universe.
No visible means of support.
For an extra challenge, try to coordinate a
Festival Freak's migration route by the tour
dates on the t-shirts of their favorite bands.
Bare footprints past signs that say, "No Shoes,
No Service." And the Festival Freak that says,
"Whoa, when did I step in that?"
Good luck finding the evidence of any Peaceful Warriors.
Don't you know? They Leave No Trace, Take Only Memories.
