Music Festivals?

[BigKid25]

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to get out of my state to go explore the country a bit this Summer, but I need a few destinations first. What better spots than some music festivals? The thing is I don't really follow any particular bands so I'm looking to find some fairly cheap festivals to get a fresh look on some different artists.

Does anyone know any really cool music festivals with tickets that are about <$60? Preferences are southern blues (I really want to head South this year, though anywhere will do if the right attraction's there) as well as most forms of rock, jazz and indie. I'm really not too picky though, and the whole point of this trek is to experience some new things, so let me know what you guys think.

I'm from Wisconsin and have been to Summerfest a few times. Really fun times. Tickets are cheap to get in and there are tons of stages to see all sorts of stuff. This summer I saw Arctic Monkeys, Third Eye Blind and Rise Against.

That sounds like a pretty cool collection off those 3 alone. Is Summerfest actually in Wisconsin or is it in a nearby state? and where about in Wisconsin is it?

Yep in Wisconsin Milwaukee to be specific.
