EDITOR’S nOTE indie lifestyle for the masses
Many of you may be wondering why there is a
picture of a white girl with a bad attitude here
where there should be a picture of Rai-mon, our
founder and fearless LEGENDmag leader. For
those of you who missed the announcement
in Issue 23, my name is Amber Milner and I am
the new Managing Editor at LEGENDmag. I am
thrilled to have been given the opportunity to
work with such a killer staff to bring you the best
in Independent Lifestyle and media. Thank you
all for your warm welcomes and your continued
support for all we do here at LEGENDmag.
All too often, I will start thinking about my plans
for the weekend on Monday morning. Having
something to look forward to makes getting
through the work week just a little easier for
me. Living in San Francisco, I am fortunate
enough to be surrounded by the bizarre,
strange, and whimsical to keep me entertained
and educated. All of us however, are immensely
lucky to live in a country full of like minded
independent thinkers, creators and leaders
who put together amazing events geared to
promote, inspire and solidify new ideas. In
that spirit, we offer to you LEGENDmag Issue
24, where we focus on the best and brightest
Independent events and festivals throughout
the country. Do your best to get out and
support these events and continue to promote
and support the Independent lifestyle!
Again, thanks for the opportunity to bring the
gospel of Independent living to the masses.
Peace,
Amber Milner
