Editor’s Note: There are a lot of reasons to be miserable about life in 2018, but the live music calendar is simply just not one of them. Case in point: We get to spend a Saturday night in the summer down by the water watching bands like Sylvan Esso and Local Natives play outdoors under a big-ass amphitheater tent.
