Sunny Day Real Estate was one of three headliners for the brand new Best Friends Forever festival in downtown this past weekend, which is part of the ever-expanding music fest calendar in Las Vegas.
That trend is flying in the face of a pretty dismal year for music festivals nationally, with low attendance, cancellations and booking issues being reported.
Another festival hits the city this weekend: When We Were Young, celebrating all things early-aughts emo and pop punk.
