Description of Green Music Fest

Date: August 15-16, 2009

Cost: $11.50 in advance, $15 at the gate (kids under 12 free with adult); $20 for a two-day pass in advance, $25 at the gate

Organizer: West Town Chicago Chamber of Commerce

What to expect: An environmentally focused event in Eckhart Park, where all the vendors are earth-friendly (recylced crafts and solar-powered devices will be on offer) and the music is earth-shaking.

Why to go: Sure, the fest will help fun improvements to the Eckhart Park playground - but the real reason to check it out is Saturday headliner Art Brut (Tapes 'n' Tapes also plays). These English art-punkers are awesome live. Lucero closes things out on Sunday.
