I have nothing against wine, I drink it fairly often and am an unabashed cross drinker. But this is still a little odd, to me. The Outside Lands two-day music festival that will take place in Golden Gate Park in mid-August appears to be wine only. And that’s despite having Heineken as one of the “partners” of the festival. The tagline for Outside Lands 2010 is “Music — Food — Wine — Art,” listed that way even on the Tickets page — they go on sale tomorrow. There are some great bands playing, including a favorite of mine — Gogol Bordello — a band I can’t imagine without beer. To me that seems like an epic fail. Rock & Roll without beer is like … well, I can’t think of an apt metaphor. It’s just wrong.
