Mayor Kasim Reed’s office said the city is reviewing a Freaknik-related permit application. Two separate events, Freaknik Nation and iFreaknik2011, are being promoted for April 15-17.
Some doubt this years Freaknik festival will live up to its heyday in the 90′s, and feel it should be left in the past.
City Profile: Atlanta“Freaknik is dead and they should stop trying to revive it,” said Travis Hudgons, a 34-year-old photographer and veteran of Freaknik in its prime. “It was a different vibe back then. It wasn’t forced. That’s just how we rolled. They need to do their own thing and stop trying to relive a past that they were never part of.”
