Motion City Soundtrack, Minus the Bear, Foxy Shazam at Popsickle Festival

Motion City Soundtrack has announced the Popsickle Festival. It will take place December 18th at Minneapolis' First Avenue. Other bands set to perform include Minus The Bear, Foxy Shazam, Gold Motel, A Great Big Pile of Leaves, Now Now Every
Children, One for the Team, Gospel Gossip, Take Cover and The Chord
and the Fawn with more to be announced.

MCS Frontman Justin Pierre explained:

We wanted to start a festival in the vein of what Lollapalooza was to
me in the early '90's -- a bunch of bands that most likely would never
have toured together, but were all doing something interesting and
unique in that particular point in time. Our version of that will be
much smaller of course, but the idea is the same. We hope to make
this an annual festival that takes place in Minnesota every winter and
hopefully can continue to grow in both scope and girth.

Tickets go on sale Saturday, November 13th at noon.
