Live 105 BDF Bloc Party Rock Festival Countdown to June 9 "Mini-Cochella"

Did you miss Coachella? Well, there’s good news for alternative and indie rock fans in the San Francisco Bay Area and elsewhere who did.

There's a "mini-Cochella" (what's Coachella?) without the searing heat of the central southern California desert.

On Saturday, June 9, San Francisco rock station 105 Live FM is hosting an impressive line-up of artists from the indie rock scene, including Bloc Party, Interpol, Social Distortion, Kaiser Chiefs, Cold War Kids, CSS, Shiny Toy Guns and many more (full listing below).

The all-day festival begins at 11:30 am at the famous Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mt. View, California, approximately 30 miles south of San Francisco. The Shoreline has both enclosed and lawn seating (see below for ticket information)

The all-day concert is expected to sell out, so get your tickets now. You can subscribe to IRC and get updates on the show, including an MP3 podcast special that will include great rock songs from the various artists scheduled for the Live 105 concert.

While the line-up is always subject to change, as of May 22, 2007, here is the official rooster of artists billed for the Live 105 Bloc Party BDF:

*Note: My aim is to provide websites, profiles and MP3s of each artist appearing at the Live 105 festival. Sign up for the IRC feed or check back to this page often for updated information, links, free music and even a free ticket contest. http://www.live105.com/pages/547604.php
