DCist reports: Gnarls Barkley and Raconteurs
"It all started with a mysterious mention on Pitchfork of a Gnarls Barkley date at Pimlico. Yes, that Pimlico. That lead The Upstate Life to do a little research. 2006_0613_pimlico.jpgThe mysterious event, taking place on September 23, will also feature The Raconteurs, and is called V Fest. We're hoping that this is an American version of the UK's Virgin-sponsored annual event, which this year will feature acts like Radiohead, Beck, The Dandy Warhols, Bloc Party and more. While this probably doesn't mean that Radiohead is playing close to home, it could mean that a very cool festival is coming our way. I for one would pay top dollar to see Gnarls and the Raconteurs all by their lonesome (and by top dollar I mean, of course, $18 or $19 bucks). If you've got any more information about who else may be on this lineup, let us know. And, big thanks to TUL for all that sleuthy goodness. You're the Veronica Mars of local tour news."
