Kanrocksas, Day One: Observations
I wrote about Kanrocksas in the July 28 issue — the people behind it, how it came to be, who came up with the terrible name, what kind of venue a speedway might make for a music festival. On Friday, I got in my car and drove 20 minutes west on I-70, exited, steered around a few bends, and pulled into the gates of the Kansas Speedway to attend Kanrocksas. The land was flat and covered in a sea of tents. I parked my car and spent the next nine hours wandering around.
