Fests are upon us: Part 2: Noise for the Needy

Noise for the NeedyNoise for the Needy is a local non-profit that sponsors a yearly music showcase in Seattle to benefit a charity. This year the event will benefit Rise 'N Shine, an organization that provides emotional support programs, stability, advocacy, and AIDS education for children and teens affected by HIV and AIDS.

The organization is as worthy as their lineup is spectacular this year. Check out these shows!

looks like they've really outdone themselves this year! my only problem with this set up is that they are competing against themselves, but as long as i get into the css, thee emergency and okkervil river shows i don't care.

I agree - the lineup is amazing, and the only trouble I can foresee is picking which show to attend. A good problem for a good cause to have, I suppose...
