Krazy Fest 2011
Coachella, listen up. THIS IS HOW YOU DO A FESTIVAL.
As far as 3-day festivals go, there are a bunch and they all have a few really good bands on them, but the weekend of May 21 will be quite legendary. Louisville, Kentucky is home to Krazy Fest, a 3-day hardcore and punk rock festival that pulls no punches. Sure, it doesn't have the clout that Coachella has, or the brutality of the New England Metal and Hardcore Festival, but this is a wet dream for any fans of underground hardcore. Every band in The Wave will be in attendance, This is Hell, Former Thieves, Title Fight, 7Seconds, Frontier(s), Cave In, Coalesce, and so many other great bands will be playing.
The best part is that a 3-day pass is just $75... no, wait, the best part is that there won't be any of that Attack Attack/Vanna-type bullshit there, the second-best part is that a 3-day pass is just $75. I'm tempted to say that there won't be any Warped Tour fluff either, but Anti-Flag will be playing. Here's hoping that I'll get to go.
