AS220’s FOO FEST is an all ages summer celebration of Rhode Island’s vibrant arts community with plenty of fun for families. 
Empire Street will be fenced off and transformed into a lively party with dancing, eating, interactive art installations, homemade games, and two dozen acts ranging from national headliners to up-and-coming local bands.
I have four 4-packs of Foo Fest wrist bands to give away. Each band allows one person entry into the festival on August 14th between 1 PM to 1AM.. I’m giving away one 4-pack this week. Want to win?

Email your answer along with your name and phone number to: contest (at) kidoinfo (dot) com and put “Foo Fest 2010” in the subject line. Contest ends on Thursday, July 22, 2010 at Noon.

Congratulations to Sue Gallogly from Cranston. She won 4 tickets to Foo Fest. Her son’s favorite band right now is Jack Johnson.
His first concert was the Toe Jam Puppet Band in Ptown.
My boys (7 and 5) and I like The Backyard Band!!
Seems to be whatever I am listening to in the car, right now they love the Foo Fighters!!
Miles – The Benedictions (dads band)
Quincy – The Beatles
Our son’s musical tastes vary like his parents but right now he likes Keith Urban, The Black Crowes and Lady Gaga.
My 8 yr old daughter loves the Beatles!
Jack’s favorite band—The Who.
Abbey’s favorite—varies, but The Beatles.
Kid’s taste in music runs the gamut from kid-geared bands like Toe Jam Puppet Band to family music like Dan Zanes to anything the parents are into. My kids used to be into Elvis Costello but now that they are so movie-focused they love John Williams and Danny Elfman. I’m not entering the contest – just wanted to share.
My 4 yr old-Social Distortion
My 6 yr old-Scarce
My 8 yr old-Dan Zanes. We have seen Dan Zanes a ton and love every show.
They Might Be Giants…hands down. Pascal’s pick (one I’m quite happy with). Bjork: 2nd runner up. Weirdo toddler.
Unfortunately we’ve reached the tween stage where it’s all about the rock and roll….nickelback.
I will accept answers as a comment or via email!
BNL’s SnackTime is a popular band/album in our car.
Thanks
Karen
