S.F. has Outside Lands, Manchester has Bonnaroo, Chicago has Lollapalooza... so, what about L.A.? Sure, we like to call Coachella our own, but these days, we're rooting for a new kid on the block. Yes, literally right around the block — FYF Fest is about to give all of those festival heavyweights a run for their money!
Come August 24 and 25, music lovers will be infiltrating DTLA to jam to the likes of My Bloody Valentine, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Toro y Moi, Beach House, and Solange. Tickets for the two-day fest (held at the Los Angeles State Historic Park) ring in at only $99 a pop — a steal when considering the big bucks we shelled out for tickets alone (not to mention gas!) to get to Indio. Mark those iCals now, because passes go on sale at 12 p.m. this Thursday. Read on to get the entire rockin' lineup.
