The Sunset Strip Music Festival, the Westside celebration of the riff (plus Kid Cudi, Common, and Fergie), have released set times for their August 28th street fair. This year's event celebrates the artistry of Slash, and is headlined by Billy Corgan and his Smashing Pumpkins.
Details of tickets, from the organizers:
General admission, VIP and 3-Day VIP tickets are on sale through Ticketmaster. Street fest tickets are $49.50 in advance ($65 day of at box office) and VIP street fest tickets, which include access to a private tented rooftop lounge with full no-host bar and seating area as well as access to On The Rox at The Roxy Theatre and Plush Lounge at the Key Club, are available for $100 in advance. A limited number of three-day “VIP” passes (which include entrance to Slash's tribute on August 26, the clubs all three nights and access to VIP tent at street fest) are $250. There will also be individual ticket sales for The Sunset Strip venues on Thursday and Friday nights. A portion of ticket sales will benefit the Los Angeles Youth Network (LAYN), a charity personally selected by honoree Slash. LAYN's mission is to end homelessness, one kid at a time, by providing shelter, food and counseling for the abused, neglected and abandoned.
