Just Announced Riot Fest announces initial lineup with Circle Jerks and Bad Religion for early October

Bad Religion Bad Religion

Annual punk festival Riot Fest is seeking to outdo itself once again this year come Oct. 6 through 10, with shows at seven venues (plus the ubiquitous “secret” concerts) from the likes of Circle Jerks, Bad Religion, and a reunited Articles Of Faith. Those shows are made only more tempting with the addition of shuttle buses from the Cobra Lounge (235 N. Ashland Ave., 312-226-6300) to every venue and back. (The release also not-so-coyly alludes to there being additional free late-night shows at Cobra.) A full list of the bands slated to perform is available at the fest’s official site. Tickets go on sale here come July 10, and five-day passes run $115 for all 21 shows.
