Winter Waka Classic

If you're not doing time in the big house 'cuz the fuzz busted your cheeba-toking ass with some totally harsh night goggles, perhaps you'll be interested in a preview of the upcoming Wakarusa Festival. Granted, the local bands participating in the Winter Waka Classic aren't exactly cause for Widespread Panic, but they do aim to play on the same stage as the revered jam band at this June's festivarian freakout in Lawrence. Like so many sorostitutes parading around in wet T-shirts, five acts — the Border Band, Grazgrove, the Down Trunks, the Bolt Ons and Choosey Beggars — will beg for your affection and a back-alley pass to the Wakarusa festival stage.
