The Sunset Strip Music Festival

If you like hanging in LA bars that have some 60s, 70s, & 80s rock history, overpriced beer and liquor, and mediocre music (with the exception of Ozzy, Fishbone, Talib Kwali, & Wild Child, with a few others) then you'll love The Sunset Strip Music Festival. It's a 3-day event going on from Thursday September 10th through Saturday September 12th, spanning the length of the famous Sunset Strip. The clubs participating are the Cat Club, House of Blues, Key Club, The Roxy Theatre, Viper Room, and Whisky A Go-Go. Basically the Sunset Strip will be closed down, street faire/block party style, where people can hop from venue to venue, street food cart to street food cart, and bar to bar! 


The festival is all ages, 21 and up to drink, 18 to smoke ciggarettes...You get the idea.

Just an opinion - I don't think I'm missing out on this because I went to Sunset Junction and that took care of my monthly needed recession red marks in my bank account enough, thank you! And, I don't necessarily care for the lineup on the bill. With exception to the artists I noted before. Don't take it personally.
