How to watch the Flaming Lips at the Stern Grove Festival
SAN FRANCISCO – The Stern Grove Festival concludes its current season of free concerts at San Francisco's Sigmund Stern Recreation Grove Sunday, but you didn't have to have a ticket to enjoy the music live.
On Sunday, KBCW and KPIX.com will broadcast the Big Picnic, the festival's season-ending fundraiser concert featuring modern psychedelic rockers the Flaming Lips.
The free festival concerts have brought an array of talents to the grove on Sunday afternoons all summer long. This Sunday, the Flaming Lips play songs from the band's landmark album Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots after opening DJ sets from indie rocker Neon Indian (Alan Palomo) and DJ Foodcourt (aka SF scene fixture Parker Gibbs. The Big Picnic is the festival's annual fundraising event to raise money so Stern Grove can continue presenting admission-free concerts for Bay Area audiences.
This year marks the first time CBS News Bay Area and KBCW are partnering with Stern Grove to broadcast and livestream most of this season's concerts. Information on how to watch is below.
