This summer was great for LiveFeed, what with all the people who donated and helped us at both PointFests, The LOT, Live on the Levee, Fair St. Louis, and our first annual garage sale. But we're not quite finished yet.

We need to make one last, big push this weekend to get us through the winter months, and we need your help at Taste of St. Louis this weekend.

It's easy. We just need folks to hang out in the LiveFeed tent, collect donations, and spread the word about how LiveFeed's fighting childhood hunger in St. Louis.

What better time to think about those who are going without, when our city's best food can be found at one place (Soldier's Memorial downtown, in case you didn't know.) Even with news that the hardest punch of the recession has possibly passed, that doesn't mean everything's a-ok.

If you can volunteer your time, drop a line to tom@livefeed.org and pick a shift. Five hours of work will do us a world of good. And it'll give you a chance to take advantage of the fun at Taste of St. Louis. Not only the good chow, but the great music.

One of LiveFeed's biggest local supporters, Illphonics, plays Friday night on the main stage at 7:45 p.m during the finals of Bud Light's Tasty Band Competition. Have you seen them live? If not, here's what you're missing:




Come support them! Then hang around for some '90s nostalgia with Presidents of the United States of America. You remember Peaches, right?

Take a look at the whole weekend's music schedule and sign up to volunteer with us while you're favorite's playing.

If you're not volunteering, stop by the tent, drop some change in the big soup can, and find out what LiveFeed's doing to make St. Louis a better place to live.
