    "We are more than happy to announce that Bun B from the legendary UGK will be added as a headliner to Free Press Summer Fest. ‘The Trill OG’ will be performing Sunday June 6th alongside Slim Thug for a sure to be historic hour long set of H Town Hip Hop. Pimp C will no doubt be smiling upon us.",
    "Also, FPSF veteran Prince Paul and mash-up artists Hood Internet will be headlining the Official FPSF After Parties at Warehouse Live; Saturday and Sunday respectively. These after parties will be FREE to all 21+ up with a Free Press Summer Fest wristband.",
    "Free Press Summer Fest prices went up this morning but they are still absurdly cheap compared to other comparable festivals. And they will stay cheap. Prices are now 30 bux. Imagine, for the price of breakfast for one at Whole Foods, you can spend the weekend in pure bliss at FPSF watching The Flaming Lips, Girl Talk, Slim Thug, Bun B, Medeski-Martin-&Wood, Lucero, Stars, Dead Prez, and many more.",
