The Dive Poets will play an acoustic show in the Halo Bar at The Pageant after the June 8th Twangfest concert.

Mike Mills of REM is “pinch-hitting” for Peter Buck during the current leg of The Baseball Project’s tour. Here he is singing “(Don’t Go Back To) Rockville” with The Baseball Project just a few days ago. Get your tickets now so you don’t miss them on Sat. June 11:

With Twangfest quickly approaching, we’ve got a couple of hot tips:

* Get your tickets today. Last year, we had sold-out shows and we don’t want you to miss out this year.

* Buy a Friends of Twangfest Dan Pack online at the KDHX store. You’ll be supporting KDHX and Twangfest directly, get a guaranteed four-night pass and all the official merch. Plus, you’ll get to hang out with the Baseball Project at a special afternoon house concert on June 11.

* If you’re in St. Louis, stop by Blueberry Hill or the Pageant during regular business hours, bring cash and buy advance tickets. You’ll save on processing fees.

* Like Twangfest on Facebook and RSVP at our Facebook events.
