Outside Lands Festival

Once my first week of class had ended I headed down to San Francisco where I planned to watch and experience three full days of live music in Golden Gate Park at the 2nd annual Outside Lands Festival.  My boyfriend and I went last year and had such a blast we couldn't pass up this years, especially since his favorite band was the first night headliner *Pearl Jam*.  I took some pictures of this festival in order to share on my blog and discuss some of the activities that happened.  

This is a picture of the main stage.  The largest by far of five stages.  The festival itself was inside the Equestrian Stadium, which encompasses Speedway Meadow and Polo Field.  This area is roughly 15 blocks, so walking from stage to stage did not give one much time in between.  The main feature for this festival and certainly a reason I returned is its awareness of energy efficiency.  There were refillable water stations, beer cups were corn based, a solar powered stage and we were given three options for where to throw our used items; compost, recycle or landfill.
