Read Crossfade’s print feature on Taking Back Sunday at SunFest 2011.
Throughout history, humans have worshipped the sun in strange ways, often involving mass orgy and human sacrifice.
Our ancestors really knew how to party, huh? Well, yes … But it’s now the 21st century and we are reasonable, civilized members of a society where public nudity and superstitious bloodlust is generally considered a big-time bummer.
So every year when the time finally comes to honor that big ball of flaming plasma in the sky, we content ourselves with a trip to West Palm Beach for four days of drinking too much beer, cultivating melanoma, and shaking ass to stuff like Cee Lo Green‘s “Fuck You.”
It’s called SunFest. See the cut for the full lineup and set times.
