7/15/2007 Fort Wilson Riot at the Hexagon

Photographer extraordinaire Dan Schultz captured this shot of Fort Wilson Riot drummer Ben Smith at the Hexagon during the now-infamous 7/7/7 festival.  Seven venues across town offered seven bands each, and to make the evening even more irresistible--it was all free.

Dan has a great set of photos from the evening on his website, Mordac.org.
