LA Weekly's inaugural Detour music festival rocked downtown last October, with frenzied dancing, drinking, and dope smoking on the downtown streets, City Hall lawn, and even St. Vibiana's Cathedral with the likes of Beck, Blonde Redhead, !!!, Queens of the Stone Age, Basement Jaxx, and Nortec Collective.
The second Detour is a day-long music extravaganza that's set up to be quite the, um, party, with headliners: Bloc Party, Satellite Party, Justice, Celebrity Skin, and Kinky on 4 stages.
Saturday October 6, 12 Noon, 1st & Main. Tickets on sale now, $30.50+ fees (code: Downtown).
See you there. Video of Beck from last year's Detour fest and a list of acts slated to perform this year after the jump.
