Pitchfork Music Festival Three-Day Passes Sold Out!
As of right now, three-day passes for the 2008 Pitchfork Music Festival are no longer available. Those suckers sold out! That'll happen with tickets to the only festival that offers the remote possibility of witnessing an interaction between Les Savy Fav frontman Tim Harrington and Public Enemy jester/VH1 reality star Flavor Flav.
But never fear, dear snoozers, you haven't lost out. Still available are $50 two-day passes for the Saturday and Sunday portion of the festival as well as $30 individual tickets for all three days. We recommend making your way to TicketWeb sooner rather than later.
Just a reminder: The festival takes place July 18-20 at Chicago's Union Park. Like last year, the whole shebang kicks off with an ATP/Don't Look Back night, featuring Public Enemy, Mission of Burma, and Sebadoh each performing one of their classic albums in its entirety.
