To live and rock out at Scion Garage Fest

​In the wake of scandals revolving around shoddy workmanship, Toyota are desperately trying to present themselves as the cool guys to the next generation of young adults who will grow up and buy their cars. (Apparently, they didn’t get the memo that the kids digging on the garage rock revolution mostly work minimum wage jobs and will be driving used cars for the rest of their lives.) 

Still, it was an uncharacteristically cool move on Scion’s part to give the good people of Lawrence an honest-to-god micro-festival that was, admittedly, pretty fucking awesome and 100% free to the public. I went downtown into Scion Garage Fest a skeptic expecting the worst, and left drunk with my ears ringing high on tasty jams, and desperately wanting a denim jacket.
