Summer Music Festivals 2010

While a couple of the big ones have already passed this spring (Coachella in April, SXSW in March, etc), there are still a boatload of great festivals to look forward to for the summer. Pack your suitcase, plan your vacation days and get your passes early.  I may very well be making a trip to Chicago for Lolla this year.

**Sad news: The All Points West Festival is NOT happening this summer. For those of us who enjoyed the rainy mud-fest that was last year’s festival, we can only hope for its rebirth in 2011.**
