If you’re one of the many people turned off by the Lollapalooza lineup this year (i.e. Lady Gaga), may I suggest heading over to the Pitchfork Music Festival. With acts like Pavement, Broken Social Scene, LCD Soundsystem, Beach House, Panda Bear, St. Vincent, Liars and Neon Indian scheduled to play, the festival is a serious contender for your money. Tickets are still on sale for the July 16-18 festival, so act now before they’re gone. You can purchase them over at Ticketweb.
