Brew at the Zoo Hosted by Notorious Nastie This Saturday

Notorious Nastie will fill in for John Belushi.

​If you haven't snatched up tickets for this year's Brew at the Zoo, better do so quickly. They are running out fast. Last year the event sold out a day before it opened.

But the 2011 gathering will definitely be bigger than last year's. Fifty-eight tents will serve beer, up from 30 last year. And Otis Day & the Knights will perform, as well as opener the Blues Brothers. And if that isn't enough, 14th Street corridor icon Notorious Nastie will play host to the drunken (remember to get a designated driver) crowd.

In fact, Nastie has concocted a video teasing Brew at the Zoo, where he channels John Belushi inviting you to the event. Tickets are still available -- $30 for general admission and $70 for VIP. For more information, visit newtimesbrewatthezoo.com.
