bele chere - excellent way to spend the weekend or to be avoided at all costs? depends on if you know what you're doing. after going to at least a decade's worth of this summer festival, i've gleaned a little knowledge that i'd love to share.
1. go early or late - don't go during the day! too hot, too crowded.
2. shhh, but byob. unless you like shelling out $7 for a bud light. i like to bring my hydroflask full of my favorite cocktails. (also byo water!)
3. walk, don't drive.
4. as far as wardrobe is concerned, anything goes, so the less clothes the better!
5. the best part is the bars after the festival closes! go late, see a few bands, then hit the bars!
6. hate to share this one, but many of my favorite stores have super sales going on throughout the weekend. make sure to check out minx for big discounts. go today!
bands i want to see:
fri - floating action, the whigs, holy ghost tent revival.
sat - kovacs and the polar bears, jessica lea mayfield, railroad earth.
sun - common foundation, do it to julia.
