Krazy Fest 5/20-22

Krazy Fest, one of my favorite annuals ever, is Back. in just a few short months, one of the first annual indie fests in louisville will tear this town apart.. hopefully.
The first Krazy fest (1998) ended with an explosive lightning storm that halted a set by one of my favorite bands, Superchunk. The last Krazy Fest (2003) ended with an explosive set by Andrew WK, and a riot resulting with a clash with the cops at a motel on Market Street. (very fun strangely enough).
Krazy fest has always lived up to it's name, and always had a large array of indie bands.
this year though, seems like the line-up is heavy in the hard core bands; By The Grace of God, Against Me!, Anti-Flag, with a slight departure with Hot Water Music.
In the past Krazy Fest has added big name headliners at the last minute, so we'll see. but no matter the line up, Krazy Fest is always interesting, with the crowd and vendors being as interesting as the bands.
This Year Krazy Fest will be May 20-22 at Expo 5, with a 3 day pass for just $75, very worth it, if it's anything like the crazy Krazy Fests of the past.
