Maybe one of these days, if I don't become too old or indifferent.

I don't care for most festivals. The best one I ever attended was in Louisville, Kentucky called Cropped Out. The emphasis was on indie, avantgarde and other musicians who were "cropped out" of the mainstream. It was at a beautiful location on the Ohio River. Headliners included people like Anthony Braxton and Half Japanese. They would also have change of pace acts like comedians. I saw Sarah Sherman there before she was on Saturday Night Live. She performed under the name Sarah Squirm. Anyone who thinks she's strange on SNL would really be freaked out by her comedy act.

Sadly, it looks like Cropped Out is probably a thing of the past. The last one was in 2018. They took a planned year off in 2019, but then COVID hit in 2020. Since then, I've heard nothing about the festival returning.
