Summer classes are over, but there are still three weeks of summer left. With that said, if you find yourself wondering how you’re gonna spend the rest of your week, you should know that Willamette Week’s MusicFest Northwest is going down, starting TOMORROW, September 8th, and running through September 12th in venues all around Portland. Trust me on this one, MFNW is the Portland festival of the year, as both local and popular acts flood the city’s venues all day and all night for five days straight.
Wristbands are $65 or $90, depending on whether you want to see only one or both of the acts on the (Nike) Pioneer Courthouse Stage (The Decemberists/The National). While the price might seem steep, $65 bucks is totally affordable for a possible 183 concerts that will be happening in venues all over town.
Notable acts that we here at the Oregon Voice are here to see? Finn Riggins, The Dirty Mittens, Astrology, Major Lazer, Panda Bear, The National, Surfer Blood, WAMPIRE, Boy Eats Drum Machine, Phantogram, Black Lips, Wiz Khalifa, and Red Fang.
Keep your eyes peeled on the blog for interviews, live reviews, and sweet photos from the festival.
Full lineup for MFNW can be viewed here.
See ya there!!
