Melodica || February 22, 2008

Made plans to attend this weekend's Melodica Festival in Exposition Park? Don't know what it is? Head to Stereo On Strike for details about schedule, ticketing and so on, or go to We Shot JR for great info (such as a really solid interview with Silver Apples founder Simeon). Find a nice parking spot, hang out, and see the wide variety of crazy and forward-thinking music that Melodica has to offer all over Expo Park this weekend.

Remember that Sloppyworld will be alcohol-free to make the space all-ages friendly this weekend, so if you have a booze urge, plan accordingly by hitting nearby bars (which, of course, are serving up bands as well). The multi-day pass is $25, but this mix of locals and national acts looks to be worth it and then some. Enjoy it. -SM
