The Best Fest

Greetings fair readers.

Are you feeling the summer blues? Lazy and bored and searching for a delightful way to fill up a Saturday afternoon? Well tomorrow June 7th from 1-7 PM at Clark Park in West Philly all the forces of awesomeness that this fair city has to offer shall convene in a massive celebration of rock & roll known as BEST FEST.



Check out their website at http://www.myspace.com/bestfest and see the ridiculous amazingness that their set list has to offer.

Want pretty singalong 50s-rock? The Chimeras have you covered. Acid-washed genius-rock? (Note: I made up that last term). Kurt Vile is here. Foot-stomping mountain-rock? The Citywide Specials move out of their hipster hideout Fiume for the afternoon. How about intricately-arranged harmonious...rock? Soft People will be playing just for you. And if you're feeling a bit more aggressive, Badmaster mainstays Drums Like Machine Guns (you can probably imagine) and Serpents of Wisdom (some math attack for the thinking part of your mind) will be along as well. Plus the bands that I'm just not cool enough to know much about: L'Ananas, Crestmont Steppers, Club Lifestyle, Beatjams, Vice Versa, Stinking Lizaveta, and the Extraordinaires.

So strap on your walking shoes and your sitting pants. Make it a picnic! Enjoy Clark Park Park! And check http://www.phillycollegeradio.org for the exclusive Best Fest review.

Until next time....
