Hi! I held the closing ritual with help from Headstone Brigade and some dear friends. I'm so glad the ritual moved you like this. I've been attending, performing at, and teaching at this festival for 10 years, and this was my way of saying thank you for what I've received. Thank you for the kind words! Blessed Be Heathens!
Thanks for posting and for sharing the videos. I appreciate the content. Shout out also to these bands: Chrome Ghost, Forn, and Cowardice. Meagan Angus performed the closing ritual.
Very well said, Jameson. A lot of what you said reflects my feelings as well. It was such a great place of healing and music. It didn’t feel real until I left, can’t wait for 2025. I won’t be leaving Sunday for that one. Fauna ripped it up. They gained a new fan that night!
Well done Jameson! I am so proud of you and want to encourage you to keep moving forward. Remember, change comes from within, meaning comes from within. It was great to share time with you this year and look forward to 2025. Cascadian Midsummer has well-earned its place in my heart.
This festival was such an important time for me, and I think I'm only starting to understand the impact its had. Thanks for including me (the Jarnborg viking's skald) in a couple of these clips ;)
