Once again, organizers of the Block Street Block Party have found a way to pack a whole lot of music into the short stretch of pavement between Dickson Street and the Fayetteville square.
We tracked down the initial music and entertainment lineup for the third-year event this week, which will include over 40 performances on seven stages.
Times and specific acts are subject to change between now and May 19 (watch the Facebook event for changes), but the meat of the lineup is below.
