The Capitol Hill Block Party has begun! The gates are open and the first bands, Radiation City and Stickers, go on at 4 pm on the Main Stage and the Vera Stage, respectively. Read all about every artist playing the festival here.

Friday tickets have SOLD OUT online, but there may be a few limited tickets available at the gate. Get there quick! Saturday and Sunday tickets are still available online, but they're going fast. You've been warned.

We'll be running around like mad to cover all the music, the parties, and the puke all weekend on Line Out! And, new this year, we have a live Twitter feed of all the Stranger writers who are at the Block Party, too.

Here we go! It's gonna be awesome.
