Across the vast miles and into another country, this serene sanctuary is calling you back. It is time to once again rejuvenate mind, body, and spirit amongst the warmth of family. It is time to set aside our inhibitions and realize that we already are the people that we want to be. It is time for us to define our own Bliss and return ourselves to the simple place of NOW. It is time for us to again be awed by the beauty of this hallowed haven.
Sandbag plays at the Main Stage on Friday at 10pm, with the lovely Shimmy Sisters and guest dancers, including Indirani.
Sandbag plays a five-hour set at camp hot tubs on Sunday afternoon
