Yesterday, Milwaukee celebrated ‘Bon Iver Day’, and the festivities included a show from Justin Vernon himself at the city’s Riverside Theater. Also serving as the first live performance in support of his masterful sophomore LP, Vernon and co. swooned the at-capacity crowd with a 16-song set, but not before he was honored by Assistant City Attorney Tom Gartner. CJ Foeckler was there and we have his photos below.
