Now that you have grown tired of your own summer mix as well as all the ones that other blogs put out months ago, it's time to get the summer mix to not only end all summer mixes, but [...]

Yup, your boy Brandon is at another festival and will be tweeting some useless photos and other baloney at you for a couple days. Follow all the nonsense below. I will mostly be working for Onet.pl at this festival so for a little insight into what I do besides TBE you can peep various interviews.
