A simple, yet all-encompassing ‘GOOD MORNING PITCHFORK’ was our first exchange of the morning. And what an early morning it was, a 5:30AM departure from Minneapolis, to be exact. After embarking on our 6-hour journey to Chicago, we arrived in Union Park, greeted by the clamor of soundchecks, pre-show setup, and frantic last-minute festival preparations. Before we knew it, the first artist, Nourished By Time, was onstage and starting the festival off on a great note.
