It all started over a late Sunday breakfast in September at a nearby diner, the autumn of my graduation from the full-time Public Relations Marketing Management Program. My friend, Stefan Braun, had just returned from tree-planting and we were catching up on our summers. He was telling me how he had been daydreaming about starting a music festival while away, featuring primarily local bands, and had even gone so far as to make a dream list of artists he would have play.
