This summer, a fantastic variety of musical talents have scheduled shows in the Lou, including a multitude of small, free acts and a decent amount of large headlining bands.

The Saint Louis Zoo is offering their annual concert series Jungle Boogie 2013 for free for a span of warm summer nights with cool drinks, music, and friends – furry or otherwise.

Fair Saint Louis is also bringing back their yearly music sequence over the weekend of July 4th, featuring Bret Michaels, Counting Crows, and Trace Adkins in the Downtown Area.

For a different sort of experience, head to The Firebird, where nearly every night an act plays for under twenty dollars. Show up at random for a cheap, fun surprise or take a glance at their schedule and pick a few you may have heard of.

The pinnacle of the Saint Louis summer music scene comes to fruition with Loufest, a raved-about two day outdoor music festival, heading famed talents The Killers and Wilco. Tickets cost a pretty penny but seem well worth it to past visitors.

Overall, this summer in Lindbergh’s hometown will provide, musically, something for everyone.

The team’s success stemmed from their terrific chemistry. The only set they dropped was in tournament play and the only question facing Lindbergh was would the pressure get to the team as  the beacon of an undefeated season was getting closer.

As it turned out, it did not.

“It was an amazing season to be a part of. We’re all really excited about what this could mean for the program,” JV coach Rick Czouppon said.

This year’s team became the first JV team in any spring sport to go undefeated in school history now as the seniors more on and this core group moves to the varsity level will the exception of winning one or maybe even two state championships be too much for them to handle.

“As a team, we’re only getting to get better. Next year, the real fun will begin,” Matt Reinsel (10) said.
