Damn dude, that's awesome. What kind of place do they place in? Auditorium-size?

Nice schedule. Make sure you send an email to whoever is behind that series. Good feedback will keep it going. How long have they been doing it?

actually, it's been running since 1993 and it's getting better every year. It's only 2.50 a beer and they sell alot of it, so the series stays srong.
It actually outside in laffayete square, it's a nice little park area in the middle of the city

local band ussually open for the main acts, brings alot of joy to the city

you are one lucky s.o.b. I paid 24$ to see umphreys and you get it for free. But there is a chance they are playing a free show in st louis too.

Wow, that's a lot better than the "Alive at 5" thing that Portland throws down every Thursday from now until sometime in September. Same kind of deal, though; it's outside in Monument Square in downtown. But beers are around $5, I think....

The best we get is Assembly of Dust. Hooray.

Damn you guys and your free concerts!!

My best summer concert options are to go see Shakira for $120, or one of the guys from Buena Vista Social Club for $100. I gotta move to Buffalo!
