Day 7 of the 2024 Duluth Homegrown Music Festival dawned cloudy and so rainy that, to much online disappointment, the annual kickball game at Chester Bowl was canceled to prevent damage to the field. By evening skies had partially cleared, and it was another busy night at venues from Wussow's in West Duluth to Sir Benedict's Tavern on 8th Avenue East.
