The Utah Arts Festival is in full effect - rain, shine, celebrity death ... nothing can stop the annual event from going off! I used to spend all day every day hanging around the grounds, eatin' sno-cones and purchasing ghastly caricatures by artists fixated on my pointy chin. In recent years, UAF organizers have really stepped up their game on the music front, giving local artists first dibs on center stage and prime-time slots. The move has been so successful, in fact, it's impossible to catch every out-of-sight act. Some folks to keep in mind:
Friday
Band of Annuals, Elizabethan Report, Marvin Payne & The Gifted Seed, Oh! Wild Birds
Saturday
Haun's Hill Massacre, Two and a Half White Guys, James Shook & The Resolutions, Afro Omega, Mana Poly All Stars
Sunday
AJ, Slim Chance & His Psychobilly Playboys, Andrew Goldring (all grown up!), M. Sartain, Laserfang (do NOT miss these guys), TR Ritchie
Check the schedule for details. I'll be there - eatin' almonds
