dfest starts tonight!

July 25th, 2008

if you’re in the tulsa area - or you’re up for a little road trip - the dfest music festival and conference starts tonight! it’s their biggest one yet and shows promise to be an excellent time.  unfortunately for me, i’m not going to make it in time to see the band i was looking forward to the most: ghostland observatory.  ah well. good things in good time.  check out the schedules for each day:

friday

saturday

also on saturday night, i’ll be heading out a little early from the roots’ set to catch heady p at tiny lounge.  as your attorney i would advise you to do the same.

have a fun weekend, folks.

so i found out some more interesting news… seems that edison glass will be playing dfest with paramore…pretty big deal for our small-town fest!! another rumor floating around is dirtfoot and all american rejects. but what really gets me going is this forum stating that justice and digitalism will be there - now don’t go messing with my musical emotions! can’t wait to see the whole bill.

official lineup announcement tomorrow!

carry on…

so for those of you not familiar with the tulsa music scene, dfest (or diversafest) is an awesome music conference and festival showcasing local and national acts in downtown tulsa, oklahoma. last year’s lineup blew everyone away when they announced that local heroes the flaming lips and leon russell were headlining, and the fun didn’t stop there, other awesome acts like shiny toy guns, the feds, and steel train were on the bill - so you can imagine that there is much anticipation for this year’s lineup release! they plan to announce the lineup this wednesday (4/23), and tickets will go on sale thursday (4/24). keep your eyes and ears out for the announcement for one of the region’s best up-and-coming music conferences & festivals. the announcement will come with a whole new face-lift for their website too! so be sure to check that out…word on the street is that it’s the biggest and best yet!!

update: rumor has it that zappa plays zappa is playing!!
