Favorite Festival photos from 2013

There was a bunch of Festivals this year wasn't there? 
2013 welcomed a couple newbie Fests (First City Festival, Bottle Rock Festival), some smaller ones like Phono Del Sol Music & Food Fest and the  20th Street Block Party  and of course the returning champs Noise Pop, Outside Lands, BFD and the Treasure Island Music Fest.
 
And those are only some of the Music (Art/Food) Festivals here in the Bay Area!
Here are my Best Fest Photo picks from the Festivals I was lucky enough to see.

It was a beautiful warm summer day at Potrero Del Sol (Skate) Park  in San Francisco at the 3rd Annual Phono Del Sol Music and Food Festival this past July. 
Wrapping things up just before 7pm with  two high energy closing acts; Thee Oh Sees and YACHT, this smaller SF festival was the right amount of sunshine, music and food

With as many great acts as it had: MGMT, Modest Mouse, Father John Misty, Capital Cities, Passion Pit, Washed Out, Niko Case and Purity Ring to name a few, it's easy to say that the First Annual First City Fest in Monterey was a success!
Check out some of the awesome shots my friend got of some acts and festivities.
Here's looking forward to the next First City Fest!

The Treasure Island Music Festival is easily one of my favorites. The views are spectacular, the crowd is chill, the sets never overlap and you don't have to walk far to catch the next act. Here are some shots my friend got of my favorite acts at T.I.M.F this year.
