Dear IC, I would like to cordially invite you all to LouFest this summer in St. Louis. It is held in Forest Park, which is about 2 blocks from my dojo. This is not some lame MN camping invite that turns to vapor, but instead a true event that will live in our hearts and minds for years to come. It is a two day event August 27-28 and is only $64 for a 2 day pass. Come, join me, won't you? Lineup includes:

THE ROOTS + TV ON THE RADIO
CAT POWER + DEERHUNTER + !!!
THE HOLD STEADY + SURFER BLOOD
DOM + DAS RACIST + THE LOW ANTHEM + KINGS GO FORTH
LOST IN THE TREES + UME + SLEEPY SUN + TROUBADOUR DALI
JUMBLING TOWERS + OLD LIGHTS + JON HARDY & THE PUBLIC

NOTE: If you dont come, you are a homo.

I know two bands from the following list. Get Jimmy Buffet on the line up and Bear is a shoe in.

Forest Park would never host such an event. This much I can tell you is true.

The Bear said...

Does the $64 pass include alcohol?

Butz said...

No, but there is a "VIP" pass you can buy for $250 that includes food and alcohol. The $64 is an in and out pass also, so we could leave for the acts we werent interested in and walk to my place to drink for free.

You have free drinks at your place?

Im going to consider this. Truth. Considering the concert lineup for Costa Rica in August includes Kings of Merengue, Kings of Salsa, Kings of Cumbia and Punk Ticos singing in bad English accents, I'd love to actually see a concert with good bands. Though I have only heard of 5 of these, I am sure they are un millon times better than the shit I get here.

Also, this trip has an itinerary, unlike Lubahn's fake lake trip.

Butz, can you get me a cheap flight from Latinoville?
