Beirut playing 2009 Treasure Island Music Festival
Only three weeks away from the 2009 Treasure Island Music Festival. One of the bands I am most excited to see is Beirut. The indie band out of Santa Fe, New Mexico will be back in San Francisco after a year’s break and will be on stage Day 2, October 18, 2009.
I was fortunate enough to see Beirut last May at the Regency Ballroom on my birthday. It was a surprise from my friend. What a show… They totally rocked and since then have been one of my top 25 most-listened to artists on iTunes. If my memory serves me correctly, they were supposed to play late last year or earlier this year, but had some issues and canceled the tour. I thought they had broken up, but I am very glad to be wrong about that. Do yourself a favor and get out to Treasure Island Music Festival this October 2009 and catch Beirut on Sunday.

Saw Beirut as well in SF last year. Was totally surprised to see them on the bill for Treasure Island Music Festival
