			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a few days old, but check out this mind-destroying promo for the Old Bridge Festival on Aug. 1 and 2:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="447" height="275" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gqNguWzkwLs&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="447" height="275" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gqNguWzkwLs&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Per the video, location is 1256 Old Bridge Rd., Amissville, Va. (about an hour west of D.C.), and the cost is $10, which also gets you burgers, &#8216;dogs, beer, and space to camp (the property is over 150 acres).</p>
<p>Oh, and the bands! So far, the list includes <strong>Future Islands</strong> (!), <strong>BLDGS</strong>, <strong>La Otracina</strong>, <strong>Laughing Man</strong>, <strong>Hume</strong>, <strong>Age Sixteen</strong>, <strong>The Black Powder</strong>, <strong>Cave Caverns</strong>, <strong>The Fordists</strong>, <strong>Ga&#8217;an</strong>, <strong>Gay Knowledge</strong>, <strong>Google Earth</strong>, <strong>The Independent</strong>, <strong>Invisible Hand</strong>, <strong>Landlords</strong>, <strong>Mystic Flavor</strong>, <strong>Paper Mice</strong>, <strong>Pretzlcoat</strong>, <strong>Rifle Recoil</strong>, <strong>Surf Nazis On Ecstasy</strong>, and <strong>We&#8217;re Glad You&#8217;re Dead</strong>, with apparently more to be announced.</p>
<p><span id="more-8332"></span>Looks like the overall vibe is experimental and noisy, with some more straightforward punk and indie rock thrown in. Most of the bands are from D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, with a handful from New York and elsewhere.</p>
<p>Apparently, the people behind the Fairfax space <strong><a href="http://www.myspace.com/countpyros" target="_blank">Count Pyro&#8217;s Castle</a></strong> are organizing the fest (and local polymath <a href="http://www.myspace.com/humesongs">Hume</a> tells me he&#8217;s helping curate). And this Saturday, Count Pyro&#8217;s is <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=99314678855&amp;ref=ts" target="_blank">hosting a benefit</a> for the festival featuring<strong> Ape!</strong> and <strong>A City Safe From Sea</strong>. Groovy.</p>
<p>More info is on the Old Bridge Festival&#8217;s <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=97019824349&amp;ref=ts" target="_self">Facebook page</a>, along with some Old Testament-y ramblings.</p>
