Outside Lands brings music fans and festival goers to the trees of Golden Gate Park every August. I say “music fans and festival goers” because these days the two are almost different with the culture becoming how f-ed up can I get for three days and less about how can I see great bands. Regardless, it’s magical and full of lots of happy faces. Here’s what I saw.
Also, here’s a playlist to enjoy the music from afar and let these pictures bring the party to you.


DAY 1











DAY 2


















Day 3






I caught some Pokemon





Wandered into a Tay vs Ye Dance Party





And with a dusty walk out

That was Outside Lands 2016.

Your photo essays as always are great. Especially love the use of double exposure feature on the X Series cameras(which reminds me I need to play with that more). How was Radiohead live?
This photo essay was gorgeous and I can’t wait to dive into the playlist!
In my experience the best way to find a festival that isn’t just a parade of hipsters or wooks looking to get fucked up is to go to smaller, less well-known camping festivals. You don’t get as many super trendy headliners but better atmosphere and great music.
