For those of you who love the music and styles of the 90s, 90s Flannel Fest will satisfy your appetite. 

According to 90sflannelfest.com,
Flannel Fest is expected to cause euphoria, spontaneous bouts of loud singing, uncontrollable air-guitaring, and strong sense of connection with hundreds of fellow attendees. Flannel Fest may cause index and pinky finger fatigue from throwing up the metal horns.  If you experience a s***-eating grin that lasts through the Fall, consult your doctor. They may recommend a Flannel Fest booster the following year.’
