Kiefer Sutherland gives good anecdote. From the motorcycle dreaming that got him through years of filming 24, to the near-miss with the cat that belonged to Robert Downey Jr and Sarah Jessica Parker. And musing that he’ll be outlived by his new outdoor decking, as we encounter Kiefer’s Wind In My Thistle Festival. Liking a challenge, he also offers up a whole other festival to the party as well and if there’d been more time, a third disco festival would’ve been up for discussion. Next time Kiefer,
