Early bird tickets for Montreal's Osheaga Music and Arts Festival are already sold out, but there are plenty of regular passes still available for the 2-day indie rock/electro jam August 3-4. More than 40 bands on 4 stages will take over St-Helene Island's Parc Jean-Drapeau, including top billers Jack Johnson, The Killers, Cat Power, Matt Costa and Canadians Broken Social Scene and Chocolat.
Leave your SUV stateside 'cause festival organizers recently announced free public transportation to and around Osheaga thanks to eco-conscious Société de Transport de Montréal. There's a decidedly not-green NASCAR race at Parc Jean-Drapeau on August 2, so this year Osheaga falls on a Sunday and Monday. Better ask for that extra day off now.
