Awareness is Free is a celebration and reminder of community via music. It will be held at the PSU park blocks September 13th and 14th on Thursday from 12:45 to 9pm and on Friday from noon to 9pm on Friday. It is an illustration of a community working together. The event will host a wide array of local bands in an effort to build a community atmosphere and showcase different people working together to influence a result.
The line-up consists of a wide cross-section of local music, often skirting experimental and off-the-beaten-path genres. Artists performing will include: Celesteville, Miikomiiakii, Knuckle Children, Moodring, Neququam Vaccum, Mr. Pharmacist, Au, Eternal Tapestry, Paint & Copter, Atole, Cex Fucx, Truck Truck Ocelot, Waves Of Nightingales, Dash!, Soup Purse, Rob Walmart, Grouper, Dead Air Fresheners, Armadillo Speedbump, Strategy, Evolutionary Jass Band, Valet and EET.
The event is brought to you by KPSU & Cacophony, as well as sponsored by PMB and The Modern Age.

Does anyone know who was playing at 7 PM on Friday night in the Park Blocks? It was so good! Upright base, guitar, jazzy. Wonderful stuff.
I really enjoyed this event.
