Duluth Homegrown Music Festival 2012 - TwinportsNightlife.com

The Homegrown Music Festival is Duluth’s annual showcase of rawk and/or roll devil music.
It began as a simple birthday party with a handful of bands and a bunch of beer.
Now it’s a complete bureaucracy, run by a volunteer steering committee and a fiscal agent,
featuring about 150 musical acts, along with a few filmmakers and other artists — and a bunch of beer.

Tickets: Available in advance at the Electric Fetus. During events, admission wristbands
can be purchased at any venue that requires them.
A Weeklong Pass is $25, a Single-Day Weekend Pas (Fri or Sat) is $15.
A Singe-Day Weekday Pass (Any weekday) is just $5.

Note: The Turtles Exception...The $5 single weekday pass does not include the Wednesday night show at Clyde Iron Works.
To attend that show you must have a weeklong pass, which will be available at the door.
There will be limited space at this event because, this just in:
Trampled by Turtles is a popular band. So arrive early, the TBT show will be first come, first serve.
