80 musical acts were packed into one weekend at the much awaited New West Fest in downtown Fort Collins. In addition to many Colorado-based bands, there were headline appearances by Blondie, the Decemberists and the Motet.
New West Fest is put on each August by the Bohemian Foundation, a local entity that provides local, global, musical and community programs.
