…………………………..It’s that time of year again. The sun magically seems to come out for one weekend in Golden Gate Park to shine down on those in attendance for San Francisco’s Outside Lands Music Festival. With headliner heavyweights such as Stevie Wonder, Metallica, Jack White, and Foo Fighters playing this Friday thru Sunday, the musical diversity of the lineup offers something for everyone. Also performing are acts such as Wallpaper, Alabama Shakes, and The Walkmen, as well as comedians, David Cross, Neil Patrick Harris, and Kristen Schaal. If you weren’t able to get tickets to this year’s sold out festival, you can still see some of the bands at night shows spread throughout venues in San Francisco. Some of those performing in these more intimate settings are Of Monsters and Men, Washed Out, Andrew Bird, and Grandaddy. For more information including the schedule and list of food vendors, visit the Outside Lands website.
