Noise Pop Announces Early Bird Badge Sale

Hey film and music junkies, can’t wait for SXSW in Austin this March?

Easy solution: Take a trip up to San Francisco Feb. 24 – March 1 for the 17th annual Noise Pop Festival.

The festival’s promoter, Noise Pop Industries, has just announced additional headliners Stephen Malkmus (making his live solo debut), Ra Ra Riot, St. Vincent and The Submarines among others.

Noise Pop’s artist additions coincide with a special early bird offer on 2009 badges; fans can snag the badges for 10% percent off, slashing the price from the usual $150 to $135.

Badges, which grant access to all general admission shows, film screenings and happy hours, can be purchased at www.noisepop.com.

For a lineup that includes such a wide variety of music (including The Flaming Lips, Band of Horses, MSTRKRFT, The Black Keys, Fleet Foxes and more than 100 others) and a slew of film and art installation premiers in one of the nation’s most eclectic cities, you can’t beat the price.

Forget about South Padre. You can go to Cancun next year. This year, spend Spring Break at Noise Pop!

View the lineup in its entirety on Noise Pop’s Web site.
