Last weekend, my wife and I attended the first Bottle Rock music festival in Napa -- here is my review.
Yesterday, I attended the Sun God music festival, which is held on the campus of the University of California, San Diego, each year. Sounds relatively small, right?
Wrong. Sun God is 20,000 -- outdoors -- amidst the beauty of San Diego.
Sun God has become a mini-Coachella. It's that good. The grounds are grassy and beautiful (like Coachella, and unlike Bottle Rock). The production is first-class all the way (like Coachella and Bottle Rock). Over the years, Sun God has dialed it all in (the layout, the logistics). And, the line-up is relatively strong for a festival that is essentially fully funded by the UCSD students themselves (via their annual student services fees). Essentially, 3 stages -- one main stage for the bands (including one of my favorites for the day, Youngblood Hawke out of LA -- pictured here); a second stage for EDM, which has taken over the world (and is beginning to out-draw the main rock and roll stage at Sun God); and a "tent" venue that features various dance troups and other performances.
Sun God sits on a perfect venue for live music. This has become an annual rite of passage for UCSD students -- and it was fun just to experience all of these kids meandering all around and getting a taste of a real festival experience.
But, do they really appreciate how unique it is for them?
