2002, I contacted Gaynor, the owner of Ink Fetish Tattoo Shop and organizer of Freedom Fest after 2002 flyer was distributed around downtown Barrie. I went to Ink Fetish Tattoo Shop and promptly purchased my ticket and chatted up a storm about the event. Once I had the ticket in hand, they ogranized a ride up to the site the night before and excited to be out of my fathers trailer for a few days, my first vacation on my own before I started college.
In 2003, I attended the Fifth Annual Freedom Fest at the Hideaway in Moonstone, Ontario. I promptly went to Ink Fetish and bought my ticket and organized my ride. The festival had its largest line-up including a series finale of the Ebombs Squad, Evil Bill and many more.
I would like to thank Rachel Rose for providing the photos of the Freedom Fest Flyers. Keep your ears to the tracks as more photos get shared via the Facebook.
