Well... we did it again.

On Sunday, September 6, the Garden Patio transforms into Georgetown's loudest backyard for MEZZFEST III, our annual celebration of the musicians, friends, and generally questionable decision-makers we love most.

Pino has been quietly plotting this lineup for months. We're not saying it's the best one yet because we'd rather not start a fight. We are saying you'll probably discover your new favorite band before the sun goes down.

$20 gets you eight bands:

Fan Club

Sux

Ononos

Dish Pit

Scott Yoder

Brat

Microfoam

Understater

Doors at 3:30. Music at 4. Done by dark.

It's all ages, and kids 15 and under get in free, because it's never too early to develop excellent taste in live music. Or at least excellent hearing damage stories.

Cold drinks. Hot food. Great bands. Come hang. Or don't. But if you skip it, you'll eventually find yourself saying, "I heard it was awesome," and technically that's not the same as being there.
