Once again we'll have 4 afternoons of music, Wednesday through Saturday, food and drink out back and a gallery full of art to see. FREE ADMISSION.<br /><br />Party schedule & sponsors:<br />Wednesday, March 15, 1 - 6 PM<br />BAAMO (Florida music lovers group)<br /><br />Wednesday, March 15, 6 PM<br />Special Yard Dog show: Steve Wynn and the Miracle 3 at 6 PM<br /><br />Thursday, March 16, noon - 6 PM<br />Schuba's (Chicago's coolest club & restaurant)<br /><br />Friday, March 17, noon - 6 PM<br />Bloodshot Records<br /><br />Saturday, March 18, noon - 6 PM<br />YepRoc Records/Harp Magazine<br /><br />We don't make the party lineups available in advance for 2 reasons: 1) we get all the people we can handle just relying on word of mouth; and 2) it's a party, we're not a venue, and the whole idea is for you to come hang out. Favorite highlights from past years include the Mekons (pictured), the Waco Brothers, Robyn Hitchcock, Drive By Truckers, Calexico, Casey Chambers, Chuck Prophet...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14024895-113916778331311074?l=yarddog.com%2Fnews.php'/></div>Yard Doghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00354248269348569784noreply@blogger.com
