A relative baby to the festival scene, Outside Lands in beautiful Golden Gate Park in San Francisco began in 2008 with a swing for the fences lineup including Radiohead, Tom Petty and Jack Johnson as headliners. It’s since stayed huge (although it’s hard to top that first lineup) and continues to draw crowds to The City.
Ice Cream Man, having success with Superfly produced Bonnaroo, was invited to tag along from the start and was an instant hit, giving away ice cream from the stage during Devendra Banhart’s set.
