"Before we even start, I just have to say, you're all fucking legends." – John Butler 2010 proved to be a landmark year for Wakarusa . It was the culmination of years of enduring the politics of festival organizing and coming out on top with a premier mid-level event.

Even though this was its seventh year, it felt like the first, but with the same intimacy and charm [...]
