Thanks guys. Really hard to leave my current job but this festival is way more my style as I get to work with bands from all over the world from all
different genres. It's a festival that The New Breed has played a number of times in the past and I can't wait to work with the next generation of
bands.
I start there on April 12th.
Thanks for the kind words.
