With Gainesville’s annual punk gathering Fest just around the corner, the Pre-Pre-Fest happens in Orlando as a warm-up for the main event. These pre-Fest shows give the touring bands an opportunity to play for fans in Central Florida and make some extra money (touring is more expensive than ever).

Taking over Will’s Pub, Lil Indie’s and Framework Coffee, this year’s lineup includes Rodeo Boys, Tiltwheel, Gully Boys, Tired Radio and Quit, along with plenty of other acts spread across the three venues. Since Will’s Pub and Lil Indie’s are attached at the hip and Framework Coffee is just across the street, these three venues are all within walking distance (suburban sprawl spit take) from each other, making your musical journey easy-breezy. Buying the pass gets you into all three venues, making it a great deal and a great way to support the bands before they hit the road to Gainesville.

3:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct, 21, various locations in Mills 50, willspub.org, $51.61.
