Get Perry Farrell's Autograph Tomorrow
The kids behind tomorrow's Detour Festival are doing some interesting things to make your October street festie experience sweeter.
Detour will be that joyful noise you hear downtown tomorrow starring Bloc Party, Justice, Satellite Party, Kinky, Comedians of Comedy,Turbonegro, Teddybears, Moving Units, The Raveonettes, Shout Out Louds, Autolux, Celebrity Skin, The Aliens, Aggrolites, Busy P, DJ Mehdi, Sebastian, Kavinsky, So Me, Noisettes, Cool Kids, The Deadly Syndrome, Scissors for Lefty, Johnossi, Augie March, Nico Vega, Mink, Franki Chan, Travis Keller, and Bruce Perdew
One thing they're doing is encouraging people to ride Metro to get down there. This is something we recommend too. If there's one place that our limited subway goes to very nicely it's downtown. Plus there's nothing better than to be able to drink, enjoy the music, and not have to worry about driving home (or drunk drivers).
In fact one lucky Metro rider will win a pair of tickets to next year's Coachella.
Another nice thing happening tomorrow is concert-goers will have the chance to get the autographs for some of their favorite bands and artists, including Lollapalooza founder, Jane's Addiction frontman, and Satellite partier Perry Farrell.
If you don't have your tix yet, don't sweat it, they will be on sale tomorrow at the gate, $40 cash.
