Virgin Music Fest is Free
June 29th, 2009 by Evan
There are perks that come with a crashing economy. The annual Virgin Music Festival in Maryland has now turned into the Virgin Mobile Free Fest because the huge event will now be completely free. In a statement made by the founder and president of the Virgin Group, Richard Branson said “In a time of economic challenges and daily sacrifices, we wanted to throw a fantastic party so people could let loose and have a great time – on us.” The line up for the August 30 show includes Franz Ferdinand, Weezer and Blink 182. It’s not as stellar as previous line ups which included Kanye West and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers. But then again, it’s still a free show.
