Get High In The Pines

If you’re looking for a good excuse to play hooky today (and who isn’t?), head high for live music, cool weather and quality local brew.

Give your boss your best fake sniffles and cough, pack the car and hit the I-17 to Flagstaff for the High Life In The Pines festival kickin’ off today through Saturday. Featuring bands such as 90s-alt rockers Lit and AZ-bred What Laura Says, the indie music festival is rocking the stage at the Pepsi Amphitheater at Fort Tuthill Park, with tickets starting at $14 for single day and $24 for two-day passes.

Tickets are available at Pro Tix Online, by phone at 866-977-6849, or at Flagstaff’s The Museum Club. Better yet, we say head to the Flagstaff Brewing Company where you can pick up your tickets while while chugging an Agassiz Amber, Blackbird Porter or any of their tasty small-batch brews.

Check out the festival website for the complete lineup, ticketing info and for the brave, camping info.
