Music to Our Ears

Over the last few months, we’ve had Atomicdusters skip out early on Fridays to go off and enjoy music festivals in far off cities like Chicago and Tennessee, so imagine our relief when we found out the next big music festival would be right here in our own hometown. 

On August 28th and 29th, several Atomicdust employees spent the weekend in Forest Park at the inaugural LouFest Music Festival. The festival featured eighteen bands on two stages and included both local and national acts. A few Atomicdust favorites were Broken Social Scene, Fruit Bats, She and Him, and Jeff Tweedy (who is pictured here). 

Besides music, Loufest had food, ice cold beverages, and local vendors touting everything from CDs and T-shirts to wireless data plans. And while the official gear may have been blue and orange, this festival was as green as it gets- with water and recycling stations, valet parking for bikes, and an EcoZone featuring local organizations committed to conservation, recycling, and clean energy.  

And one of our own, Jason Stoff- designer by day, concert photographer by night- had the pleasure of documenting the event. You can see his images on Flickr and read more about the festival over at the Riverfront Times. 

Thanks Loufest. You gave some of our employees a great weekend of live music, and allowed them to hold on to one of their coveted vacation days.

We want the Atomicdust blog to be a place where people can come and share their thoughts on marketing, design and how adorable they think our babies are, and leaving a comment allows you to do just that.

We will moderate the comments, and reserve the right not to post anything we deem inappropriate. That being said, we have created some guidelines to help ensure your post gets published:

Do: Be vocal
Share what you know. Ask about what you don’t.

Do: Spread the love
Feel free to share the posts on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn or wherever you play on the Internet. But if you could give us some credit, that would be nice. We work hard to write these posts... and want our fifteen minutes of fame.

Do: Watch your language
We’re all adults here (probably), but please, avoid using language that is obscene, vulgar, or lewd. (Lewd? That word just sounds gross.)

Don’t: Get all elementary on us
Spelling is hard sometimes. Please forgive people for their typos and spelling errors.

Do: Be like Honest Abe
No lies, please.

Don’t: Be like Kanye
TURN OFF YOUR CAPS. That is just annoying. (But not when Kanye does it. Then it is genius.)

Don’t: Be a hater
While we welcome criticism and open discussion, remember to be respectful. Make sure your comment is constructive and that it doesn’t offend, threaten or attack.

Don’t: Spam us
I’m sure that magic pill really works, but Atomicdust blog readers aren’t interested...
