Your mission should be clear at this point, right? No? Well, we guess you could turn up your nose at all the spectacular-ness and head over to HumBrews where The Shook Twins will fill your soul with talent jealousy. Identical twin sisters Laurie and Katelyn Shook have more than secured their awesomeness credentials at this point with their tight harmonies, compelling songwriting, inventive use of loop pedals and hypnotizing stage presence. OK, you're right. That will almost assuredly be a classier affair. Do that, HumCo.
But wait! Joel: The Band starts at 6 p.m. and The Shook Twins don't go on 'til 9 p.m. You don't have to choose! Humboldt wins again!
