Eight years ago, Harlan Anderson started Lumberjack Fest as a way to make money for charity and his Denton-based literary magazine, The Porch. Today, the magazine is defunct, but Lumberjack Fest continues. This year's lineup features Denton all-stars The Spitfire Tumbleweeds, Pinebox Serenade, Shiny Around the Edges, Dim Locator, Hares on the Mountain, PVC Street Gang and Pearl Snap Shirts. Also on the bill are veteran Gainesville country rockers Hollertime. The show starts at 6 p.m. and tickets are $10. This one's going to be packed, so be sure to get there early.
