105.7 after 7pm on weekdays and all day on weekends

 

LOL, i didn't even know HFS was still around. I might go. TMBG are good. I have seen them at 9:30 club a few times and they played HFStival 1992.

Is it going to be at the RFK still? I can't imagine they still have the audiance to support that large of a venue now.

It's at M&T Bank (aka Ravens) stadium in Baltimore, much nicer place than RFK if you ask me. I went to the one they had there a few years ago and it was way better than RFK. Plus you have the option of being on the club level for an extra $25...



Last year's was somewhere around 60,000 people, there are pics on my website, gives you an idea of the size of the crowd, those were at RFK



The one thing that might hurt them this year is that on 105.7, which is located near Baltimore, they don't really have the DC/NoVa coverage that they used to have. I wouldn't be surprised if you can't hear the station down where you live Dave. They get a little advertising coverage on WJFK, but the taget audience for WJFK isn't really the same for the HFS'tival, maybe Junkies listeners, but that's about it...



in any case it's a decent time to hang out, have a few beers, watch idiots and listen to some decent music while doing it
