I'd be down with that idea. That part used to be tight. I used to go to Bumbershoot every year back when it was free, my first concert ever was Sir Mix A lot and Kid Sensation. I remember standing in line with my step bros and I asked some dude what time it was and he said, "it's time to get ill" which shows you this was definitely the late 80s haha. I remember the Crazy 8s playing outside in the sun and KXRX 96.5 was all over the place. The arcade, all the carnival games, shit was a blast but the place just never evolved so it's lame now and no one really goes there except maybe tourists. I never understood why they wouldn't pump new life into that prime real estate, its such a good location for that kind of stuff.

Last time I went to Bumbershoot it was asses to elbows, overpriced as fuck not including overpriced food/drinks and not much good music




Shiiiit I had to look it up just to remember who was there at that Sir Mix A lot concert:
