Creepy Teepee Festival

As the 2009 GASK Art Fest's musical counterpart, the Creepy Teepee Festival is about to start in Kuntá Hora, about 45 miles east of Prague. Put on by the DIY Czech art collective, A.M. 180, the six-day concert series features thirty bands, mixing local Czech, Austrian and Slovakian acts with a dozen names from North America, plus New Zealand, Portugal and Sweden. The bands will play on a stage in the courtyard of a Jesuit student dormitory, at the GASK Gallery. Celebrating artistic independence and progressive culture, the GASK Art Festival starts this weekend before the concert series and will hold free film screenings, art workshops and other events during the day and after parties every night at Klub Ceská at 11 PM.
