"Festival Song" is the third single taken from Good Charlotte's self-titled debut album "Good Charlotte". Joel Madden of Good Charlotte says the song is about the HFStival, an annual rock festival sponsored by Washington, D.C./Baltimore, Maryland radio station WHFS, "I grew up coming to the HFStival. . . I wrote this song about being here, how we wanted to quit our jobs to be in a band. We have all our friends, the fans and the radio support right here."
