I got to House of Blues just a few minutes after doors opened for up-and-coming Mexican singer Kenia OS’s first show in Chicago. The line to get in, which I opted to skip after picking up my photo pass, went around the building, down the block, and past the river. The longest line I’ve ever seen for a show there.

I’m sure it was great, but I spent the day at home editing a couple thousand pictures that I took over the first two days of the fest. It’s crazy, but every year I tell myself I’m going to take less photos and make it easy, and every year I stick the … Continue reading 2022 Pitchfork Music Festival-Day 1
