Free Press announces Summer Fest

    FlyerFlyerFree Press announced its Summer Fest today. It's a good idea, we're just worried about the August-in-the-outdoors-with-little-shade part of the equation. Then again, that never hurts ACLFest.

    Headliners: Of Montreal, Broken Social Scene, Voxtrot, Explosions in the Sky, The Sword, Octopus Project, and What Made Milwaukee Famous.

    Locals: Like, just about everyone in the Houston indie scene.

    When: Noon-10 p.m., August 8-9.

    Where: Eleanor Tinsley Park.

    How much do I have to fork over for this? An astounding low $7 presale, $12 two-day pass. Or the "Fancy Pants Premium Pass" for $35, which gets you a bit of free food and drink and "shorter bathroom lines." WORTH IT.

    Wow! This lineup is amazing! At first I thought it was some type of joke when I got the e-mail from the folks at Pegstar. The "Fancy Pants" pass sounds great. I cannot wait for this to happen. Will people from Austin have to drive to Houston for a show/festival?

    (also, have yall heard about the Texas Heat Music Festival? I heard from my friend Kwesi it is happening July 4th & 5th at Jones Plaza?!? crazy stuff.)
