Eleven has a lot planned for the months leading up to the festival; be on the lookout for upcoming previews, interviews, and music from the bands playing LouFest!
Go to loufest.com for more info, and to buy tickets.
Pretty excited about this festival. The only thing I’m not excited about is She & Him… Makes me want to throw up.
This is a good thing for STL. I hope it is sold out and somehow the “children’s area” is taken away… Let adults be adults.
Props to everyone involved. I hope it is a big success.
P.S. The end of August is the best time to be outside in the park. 100% humidity + 110 degrees = sauna!
