Highly recommended. Went last night. An easy walk from the north/clyborn el stop. Suprisingly non-gouging prices on food and beer (I consider $4 for a cup of beer at an outside venue fair). Bands today are excellent from top to bottom. They've already sold over 6000 tickets to tonights show so get there early; its going to be crowded.
