Shaky kneeees… Makes me feel fiiiine…
Lineups are spewing out from all around the country right now, but few hold a candle to that of Shaky Knees! Every year, it seems that this festival accrues more and more unstoppable artists to grace their stages and blow their fans’ minds out.
Its Atlanta, GA location roots it in a major travel hub, making it easy for people all over the nation (and bordering nations!) to reach the festival cheaply and effectively.
Better than that, is the agreeable price of $215 for a three day pass to see some of these amazing acts. That price is sure to rise, though, so if you are interested (which you will be), act fast for sure! Here’s the 2016 lineup:

There is way too much awesome happening here. It hurts. It makes me angry, with delight. It makes me sick, with not-sickness. It makes me feel plenty of other confusing things, like my thinned out credit card being bashed yet again to get a ticket.
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY, SHAKY KNEES! If you are interested in more information, or buying a ticket (Hint: you are interested), check out http://www.shakykneesfestival.com/ as soon as you can!
