It's never too early to think about the Fest apparently. Dates and artwork for the sixth installment of the No Idea-sponsored, Gainesville-based testament to independent music have been posted at TheFestFL.com.

The art features designs by Richard Minino (aka Horsebites Designs) from New Mexican Disaster Squad who's been behind artwork for bands like Strike Anywhere, Western Addiction and Dead To Me.

The organizers tell us that there's a band application on the webpage however there is no list of confirmed bands yet. There are promises of "more fat guys with no shirts and more bands that will not be playing Bambino this year," whatever that means.

The fest-ivities will take place on October 26th, 27th and 28th of this year.
