Orange County Goes Green With the Spare the Air Music Festival

What: The 12th annual Spare the Air Music Festival, the largest
festival of its kind in the United States.

Spare the Air is a program established by the Air Quality

summer, the season when clear skies, hot temperatures,
lighter winds, and a strong temperature inversion combine
and trap air pollutants near the ground.

of the festival will feature an acoustic performance by
The Used, Saosin, Lit, Sugarcult, Death by Stereo, John
Easdale of Dramarama, Divide the Day and Longway. The
line-up for the Ozone Dance Tent will feature Peanut
Butter Wolf, DJ Harvey, B-Side Players, Free the Robots,
DJ Pubes and Jamie Allensworth. Attendance is anticipated
to be upward of 20,000 people.

Board of Directors John Moorlach and Chris Norby; Miguel
