X&Y Fest to rock Talent Farm
Gen-X and Gen-Y music junkies can score their acoustic fix in the same building thanks to a two-day jam session and rock concert at The Talent Farm, 20911 Johnson St.
The mega soft/hard rock-infused X&Y Fest cobbles 21 local bands stretching across 48 hours of nonstop live performances. South Florida’s wellspring of area talent first hits the black-painted stage Saturday by crooning out Gen-X favorites, from early-‘90s grunge to nu metal to pop punk.
On Sunday, rock leaps a generation as Gen-Y bands stride onstage to crank out the last decade’s most-venerated hits in emo, electronic rock, dance punk and new rave.
Each performing band is vying for $1,000 prize money for the top-voted Gen X/Y’er.
The slated lineup of performers are:

2:00 Forever From Now
2:45 Mirrodyn
4:15 The Rock Music Band
5:00 Dusty & the Robodrum
5:45 Coia
