The daily CultureMap email arrived this morning with an interesting announcement: there’s a new music festival coming to town. And by ‘town’ I mean ’35 miles east of Austin’.
Many new festivals have popped up in our area over the past several years, but I thought I’d check this one out. Let me just say this: we might be camping out in ‘Sherwood Forest’ during the first weekend of November!
