UMS Preview: “How?”

This will be brief, but still necessary (especially since I said I would write about “how” to do the UMS).
EAT: One of the best parts of The UMS is that it’s in a neighborhood. There’s no inflated music-festival economy with outrageous prices on food. Some of my picks for good eats in Baker include Persian Gourmet and, of course, Sputnik. If you can swing getting in to Sputnik between 11pm and 1am, they’ve got a great food-happy hour.
DRINK: Last year I think I drank so many Fuze fruit drinks that my body chemistry was permanently changed. Whoever the sponsors are, they’re pretty gung-ho about getting their products inside you. I don’t know if they’re doing it again this year, but Indy Ink had a keg and Hi-Dive (and most of the other bars) had UMS drink specials (mostly relating to the alcohol sponsers).
BE MERRY: You heard me, have fun. If you can manage to skip out on your other responsibilities go for it! This will ensure that you will have plenty of time to eat, sleep, and see bands.
