Festival Time!

Summer is upon us, and you know what that means: Mandatory attendance at the music festival of your choice! Which, if you've got any sense, you should make the DIY noise fest at the most happening farm currently in existence. For on the 19th to the 20th of June, Støy På Landet kicks off in Selbu—the rural heartland of the heaviest traditional binge drinking of illegally potent and recklessly homemade alcohol in the world, about two hours out of Trondheim, Norway.
