Soundset Do’s and Dont’s: Everything You Need To Know

For those of you who live under a rock, Soundset is this Sunday, May 25th at Canterbury Park. Here at KicksOneTwo, we love Soundset. We go every year, and we figured we’d whip up a quick guide with do’s and dont’s for those who might be a little bit newer to the game.

Continuing with our coverage of last Sunday’s TCSAX III event at the Cabooze, here are a few on-feet pics from the event. As lighting was not optimal, it was somewhat challenging to get a ton of snaps, but we still managed to get a few solid shots! Enjoy.
