You know what is going to piss you off even more. I had tickets. Not only did I have tickets, I had a free airfare & accomodation too. Why didn’t I go? Well, apparently, I am an idiot…
Anyway, pity party aside, let’s move forward positively, shall we. Neither you, nor I are going to this awesomeness, but you can still catch tons of it via the power of the internet. You can tune in through Tune In to live performances at the festival. They even have an app that you can download. Hit up Tune In here to learn more. The full Tune In lineup is below.
You can also check out the Free Yr Radio webcast with another full lineup. You can’t get this one on the smart phone, but you can tune into Stanford University Radio to stream it live through your computer. The full lineup for that one is below too.
The music calendar in Nashville is oddly light this weekend for the music we all care about. Apparently, it is because everyone is apparently in San Francisco right now, so get out and listen to some live music.
