More than ever, we're convinced that if the charmingly immature Wayne Campbell and Bill O'Reilly had a baby, it'd be Stephen Colbert. And just like Wayne's Waynestock, the Colbert Report host has his own eponymous music festival, StePhest Colbchella Rocktaugustfest, now in its second year, and he's lined up quite a roster of bands. The Flaming Lips, Fun., Santigold, Grizzly Bear and Grandmaster Flash will take over NYC's Intrepid, the former aircraft carrier that's docked on the Hudson. The whole shebang takes place on Friday, August 10th, starting at 7pm. Tickets are free and, though they sold out today, it sounds like more will be made available tomorrow. Watch Colbert's announcement above. Cameo by Michael Stipe!
