Tickets on sale for GonzoFest.
Tickets are on sale now for the 2nd Annual GonzoFest hosted by Frederick’s own Flying Dog Brewery. It will take place on September 12th at the Flying Dog Brewery from 3:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Here is a little more about the event:
The annual throw down will feature live music and host the Hard Times Chili Cook-Off for the Maryland State Championships. In addition to the four bands playing a wide variety of music and samples from the chili competition, attendees will also be able to enjoy award-winning beers from Flying Dog Brewery. Flying Dog will be hosting a Hunter S. Thompson look–a-like contest. Three winners will be chosen and will receive Gonzo gift baskets, including a signed bottle by label artist Ralph Steadman.
“GonzoFest is a chance for the Mid-Atlantic community to come out and celebrate the life of Hunter S. Thompson, drink locally brewed Flying Dog beer, and listen to live music. It is a true representation of what Flying Dog stands for: purposeful, provocative, irreverence,” explains Stephanie Kerchner, Director of Marketing for Flying Dog. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the United Way of Frederick County to help support local poverty initiatives.
Tickets are 20 smackers online and 30 at the door.

Well if it’s for a good cause.
I am seeing on Facebook that tickets may not be available at the gate due to the large online demand. Last year there was quite a line to get in later in the afternoon as people wanted to pay at the gate. Well worth the $20.00 to imbibe for the afternoon and listen to some good bands.
