July 19th is going to be one awfully long and music-packed day for those attending both Summersonic and Deerhoof (that night at the Marquee with Dog Day and Rich Aucoin). And don’t drink too much, the next day is also set out for you, as the festival continues on the Sunday. Why, oh, why does everything come at once here? On Saturday, witness City and Colour, <a href=”http://www.theweakerthans.org/” target=”_blank”The Weakerthans, Tokyo Police Club, Rebekah Higgs and In-Flight Safety, and Stars, Wintersleep, The Black Keys, Hey Rosetta! and i see rowboats on Sunday.
