The actual gig in question will be August 28th at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Alpharetta, GA. And while the prospect of Big Boi is enough to make even the biggest jam band detractor rethink his or her distaste of nine-minute guitar freakouts, Mos Def will also be at the same show, along with opening for Disco Biscuits on August 21st at Chicago’s Aragon Ballroom. If that doesn’t appeal to you (why wouldn’t it?!), there’s also going to be appearances by Big Gigantic and John Hughes at the same gig, making this one awesome day in ATL.
Check out both Disco Biscuits and STS9′s tour dates below. Make sure you buy your tickets for the magical show here.
