Pineapple Fest 2k19

wow! would you look at that! pineapple fest is back for its 6th installment of 10 hours of sweating in a church basement! who would have thunk we would still be doing this after all these years. certainly not me! why is it happening so late in september, you ask? isn't this supposed to be a summer music festival?? you are correct, my friend, but we at blackburn hall are serial procrastinators so this is the best we could do. we're genuinely surprised we could even get it together this year. but hey, on the bright side, maybe it'll be a little less sweaty. (but definitely not.)

this year is a little tough for us a blackburn hall. one of our founders, Gordon Whitely, passed away over the winter. he was one of the original people who started hosting shows here and created the first pineapple fest way back in 2014. the amount of talent and energy that came through blackburn because of Gordon is tremendous and the impact he had on all of us and this venue's legacy will live on forever. so this year's pineapple fest is for you, Gordon. And we're doing it as a fundraiser for The Trevor Project, a suicide prevention and crisis intervention organization for LGBTQ+ teens and young adults. the profits from ticket sales will go directly to them.

so come on out on a random saturday in late september, jam out to some cool local and touring bands, and help out a great cause.

as always we will have two indoor electric stages, and one outdoor acoustic stage.

$15 all day admission.

official lineup will be announced over the next few weeks. stay tuned, homie.

goodness, that was a lot of words.
