LA Weekly Detour Music Festival Lineup Announced



The lineup for the LA Weekly Detour Music Festival has been announced. The event will take over downtown LA October 4th. Among the acts scheduled to perform: The Mars Volta, The Mae Shi, Cut Copy, and Shiny Toy Guns.

The lineup appears to be very light this year but I must commend festival organizers for putting on more LA based bands. Last year was slim pickins and this year the majority of the lineup calls Southern California home. Check out the complete lineup below.

The festival has also discovered this fandangled new thing called "FACEBOOK" and have set up an official page where you can get the complete lineup plus other pertinent informations.

Between Detour and Coachella this year, does Goldenvoice understand that some of us don't care what the Steve Aoki/cinespace crowd is listening to?

All Detour needs to do now is add Dan Deacon and Spankrock (or Does it Offend You? Yeah?) and it's set in stone that Detour Fest is a definite detour to avoid, unless you don't mind being next to coked out hipster douchebags.
