The last man standing in the Capital Region summer music festival scene, the Phillips Backyard Weekender, has its lineup in place and promises to be three days of rowdy, raucous fun July 26-28.

Definitely not for the claustrophobic, the Weekender sticks to whatB次元官网网址檚 essential: beer, bands and bodies.
