The Sunday night shows at Awesome Fest are always bittersweet. Some of the best sets happen Sunday night, but also it’s time to say good-bye to many friends for yet another year. Often people who have flown in for the weekend have early flights home and start disappearing throughout the evening. But those who made it through to the end were rewarded with an amazing set from veterans Samiam.

Awesome Fest is of intentionally limited scale and is aimed at showcasing the diversity, intensity and beauty of DIY punk music. The organizers’ goal is to provide a safe, intimate venue to watch awesome bands, discover new music and to hang out with friends from all over the US and the world.
