Austin Psych Fest: A First Look Back at the 6th Annual Festival
Austin Psych Fest
At the 6th Annual Austin Psych Fest, the first time the event has been held at Carson Creek Ranch
I’ve been to a lot of music festivals, but I’d never been to Austin Psych Fest before this weekend.
In many ways the festival felt a lot more hippie and a lot less corporate than a lot of music festivals.
(It would be harder to get much more corporate than South By Southwest or the Austin City Limits Music Fesival!)
This hippie-ness combined with the edge-of-town location of the festival meant that I gave rides to two dudes I have never met before. One was Ian, an Austinite who was walking on the dusty road to the festival late on Friday afternoon. The other was *Phi (pronounced Fee) who had survived Saturday night’s monsoon, and needed a ride to the airport so that he could go home and take his college exams!
Given that I was in a car accident a few weeks before the festival, just going to the event took a lot more out of me than I was expecting.
So for now, here are some other people’s pictures of the festival. More to come soon!
