Question from JGoldman, “Rhinebeck and other festivals are coming up soon. The last time I went to Rhinebeck I felt excited, lucky, and extremely overwhelmed. I know that sounds crazy. But I am headed back this year. Would you describe how you approach these festivals? What are your strategies?
Thanks!
