   I love music. For years, I have longed to go to one of the big annual music festivals that take place on each corner of the United States. South by Southwest, Cochella and Bonnaroo have eluded my grasp, though, due to a lack of money and a reliable car. There is some hope, however. The Philadelphia Experiment, a local underground music company, has recently announced that their PEX Summer Festival is scheduled for July 3 through 5.
    The PEX is a multi-dimensional celebration of both music and art. It will be held on 200 acres of private land that is only an hour south of Philadelphia and a convenient ninety minutes away from Washington, D.C. PEX is promising 40 different musical acts, including live bands, DJs and other performers. The actual lineup will be announced on April 1, so check their site.
    PEX will offer their guests dormitory style cabins with showers and bathroom facilities. In addition to all of their live music acts, PEX will also offer art, education and dance. They will also have an Olympic-sized swimming pool with daily pool parties, half-a-mile of scenic river views, three sound stages, fire and drum circles, an outdoor amphitheater, lectures and workshops Including Yoga, Aerial Silk and fire staff, tent and car camping, free drinking water, a ropes course, a meal hall with optional standard, vegetarian and vegan meal plans, and secure car parking.
    If you want the Bonaroo experience without having to drive all the way down to Tennessee, then this is the music festival for you! For more information, please visit www.pexsummerfestival.com.
