Episode 133: Summer shows with Sid McCain (WMSE)

Summer is here! Yes, today officially marks the first day of the
best season in the best city for festival fun. Milwaukee earns
its "City of Festivals" nickname every summer with dozens upon
dozens of block parties, outdoor celebrations, weekly concert
series, and a myriad of other events ending with "fest." All the
while, traditional venues are still hosting great concerts and
comedy shows with regularity. It's tough to keep a handle on
everything happening between mid-June and the end of September,
but dammit if we won't try.


In the waning hours of spring, host Tyler Maas invited WMSE radio
personality Sid McCain (aka Squid Inc.) to the sweltering
Milwaukee Record office to discuss how Milwaukee summers differ
from those in the various other North American places she's
called home, what festivals are their personal favorites, events
they're especially excited for, things their media companies are
doing, and Warped Tour. Yes, a ton of things were missed, but
this is a pretty good start!
