This is off topic, but we wanted to pass it along anyway. The Electronic Frontier Foundation and five Bay Area bands are putting on an afternoon of live music and outdoor fun at EFF’s second annual Share In. The festival will be held in Golden Gate Park’s Music Concourse Bandshell on Saturday, September 14 from noon to 5 p.m. The celebration of independent music will be hosted by Grateful Dead lyricist and EFF co-founder John Perry Barlow, and former wife of the late great Jerry Garcia, Mountain Girl Garcia.

Artists participating in this event will permit recording of their performances by those in attendance in support of EFFs Open Audio License (OAL). Musicians performing at the event include: the Box Set Duo – clown princes of folk-rock, the classic funk band Funkmonsters, celtic world-fusion group Hy Brassyl, harmony based folk-pop band Atticus Scout, and Berkeley-based party band Shady Lady.

In addition to music, the Share-In will feature performers including Ashley Foster the One Wheeled Wonder, the Existential Circus, Frantastic Hands, the Metronome Dancers, and Willy Bologna and his Sideshow Circus. Bring your family and friends!
