Athens Popfest kicked off last night (Tuesday, August 10), beginning a series of performances by 60 indie bands from the US and Europe at three different venues in downtown Athens, among them Mission of Burma, Apples in Stereo and Oh OK. The festival is for more than entertainment purposes; proceeds will help fund college scholarships for area high school students. For tickets and more information, check out the Athens Popfest website. And if you'd like a preview of the music, listen to a sampler on the Popfest Jukebox at the Athens Banner Herald's website.
