Adventures in Modern Music Festival Lineup Announced

For those of you who a) are 21+, b) have a fake ID, or c) are willing to make googly eyes at a bouncer in order to gain entrance into a club, Pitchfork comes bearing good news! This September, The Wire and the Empty Bottle are teaming up to bring the fine folks of Chicago the third annual Adventures in Modern Music Festival.

The event begins on September 21, running its course over a period of five fun-packed nights. Highlights from the lineup include Acid Mothers Temple, Akron/Family, Isolée, Gang Gang Dance, Earth, William Basinski, and Four Tet. The shows go on at 9:00 each evening and will run you $15 each-- a small price to pay considering all these delicious bands.

The festival came to life way way back in 2003 and has quite the record of past performances, which includes Lightning Bolt, Adult., Six Organs of Admittance, Wolf Eyes, Keith Fullerton Whitman, and Xiu Xiu.
