Free Summer Festivals Rock

The Wicker Park/Bucktown Summerfest this weekend pretty much snuck up on me. If it weren't for the fine folks at Chicagoist who posted some of the lineup, I would have never have heard of it. Acts that I'm going to definitely see:

Starlight Mints
The Living Blue (formerly known as the Blackouts)
Youngblood Brass Band

Best of all, it all FREE. Well, almost free. Fine, there is a $5 suggested donation. *snicker*

We'll probably take public transportation there end up bringing our own beer and food and end up rockin' out cheap. And if there weren't this one, there are only a gajillion others this weekend.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Why would you about making a nominal donation to an artist who's entertaining you? That seems beyond frugal, to the point of being mean. How else should they provide for their families?
