Despite the last couple of weeks of Southern California scorching heat, the Friday kickoff of Primavera was graced by a sunkissed picturesque day. The crisp breeze and festival atmosphere reminiscent of the carefree days of a pre-Covid era are warm but equally offset. For many long-time Los Angeles concert rats and music editorials, Los Angeles State Historic Park is a familiar reminder of yesteryear’s FYF Fest, which in some ways, laid the groundwork for the venue’s subsequent music events and festivals. Curiosity and anticipation peek, wondering if the Primavera Sound production and logistical operations will meet or exceed expectations from its promoter predecessors.
