Lincoln Calling 2010

Well, it’s that time of year once again. Planning for Lincoln Calling 2010 is in full swing and we wanted to let everyone in on our plans so far with more details to come in the coming weeks.

First off, here are a couple quick notes on this year’s festivities. For the first time, we’ve taken the step of finding some sponsors to help with being able to bring in some bigger touring acts. So far we’ve secured close to 40 acts, with about half the lineup secured. The goal is to have all the lineup slots filled by September 1, but to help with visibility and exposure, we wanted to list off who is confirmed to play so far along with some other details of what will happen this year during the event.


We will kick off Lincoln Calling on Tuesday, Sept. 28 with the third volume of Kinetic Brew’s Homegrown Music Festival, this chapter focusing on local music videos. A Facebook group is available for additional information, specifically for bands seeking directors and directors seeking bands. The idea is to pair one of each to work on a music video together and at this event (at the Bourbon Theatre) we will show the finished products.
There has already been a lot of interest in this facet of the festival, but there’s always room for more. Feel free to hop on the discussion boards if you are a band in need of a director or vice versa.

Come September 29, the live music will start at nine venues around town including the Bourbon Theatre, Duffys Tavern, the Zoo Bar, 12th St Pub, The Alley, Marz Bar, Fat Toad, the Bricktop, the Black Market and Tavern on The Square.
