Summer Music Festivals are coming!

But that doesn’t mean we’re very excited about all that’s going on this year. Specifically, Mile High Music Festival’s line up feels like a miss. Tool and Widespread Panic may be cool to see in concert, but they don’t seem like great headliners in comparison to last year’s big names. And while the Fray is great, they play in Denver rather often and are great as a one band show. But, if you still think you might want to go for $90 a day or $165 for two days, the other bands you can see on July 18 & 19th include:
Incubus
Ben Harper & Relentless7
G. Love & Special Sauce
Ani DiFranco
The Black Keys
Galactic
Paolo Nutini

The Greyboy Allstars
Railroad Earth

Then there’s the Monolith. Coming back September 13 &14th, 09 are quite a few bands we saw last year. We liked them, but we don’t know if we want to see the same show two years in a row. Although last year was a really great time. Tickets are $110 for both days, ($85 with the “green package) or $59.50 per day.
