Musicfest NW (Preliminary) Lineup Announced

It’s another festival lineup, yes, but this one takes place in our neck of the woods. From September 16th through September 19th, Portland, OR will host the eighth annual Musicfest NW festival.
MFNW is currently one of the most budget-friendly festivals around, offering four-day wristbands for just $60. So, you know, shower with caution and try not to spill too much beer on it — it has to last you four whole days.
