The return of the Prairie Dog

All of us here at WPGU take a lot of pride in the music we provide for our listeners and feel it’s something we should be sharing with everyone in the community in all forms. Therefore, we’re extremely proud to announce that our very own Laughing Prairie Dog Festival is coming back to the CU this semester! As round two of the event, we’re hoping it can be bigger and better than last time, which featured a bunch of excellent local bands as well as national touring acts.
Our inaugural event featured Chicago-based Smoking Popes, Pet Lions and The Hood Internet, as well as some great Champaign acts including Common Loon, Headlights and Santah. For a mere $10 a ticket, Laughing Prairie Dog Fest was a fantastic night of music, and we’re looking forward to providing that to the CU community again. The event was a great success last semester, and we hope to bring about an even better result this semester.
Come out to one of the best nights of music of the year on Saturday, May 8, 2010 to see a slew of great bands perform and do what they do best for the Laughing Prairie Dog Festival. More details about artist additions in the coming weeks, so stay tuned to your True Alternative, WPGU 107.1, streaming live at the217.com .
