This episode is the first of a two-part special series on Shabang Music Festival in San Luis Obispo, California.

KCPR 91.3 presents SLO-FI, a podcast about the unique local music culture of San Luis Obispo. Nestled on the Central Coast between Los Angeles and San Francisco, San Luis Obispo has become a music destination, as well as a cultural hub for local artists, bands, and music venues.

In this episode, Sam walks us through his experiences at Day One of Shabang Music Festival, focusing in on Shabang's silent disco. He also answers the question -- when did Silent Discos start?
