AFI, Paramore to co-headline mtvU's Ulalume Festival

AFI and Paramore will co-headline mtvU’s inaugural Ulalume Festival on Oct. 23 at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland. Other bands on the bill include Kid Cudi and Death By Sunrise (the side-project of Linkin Park’s Chester Benninton). The show–with a moniker lifted from an Edgar Allen Poe poem–is a Halloween-themed festival, complete with a costume contest and assorted surprises. Performances from the show will air during a Halloween-themed week on the MTV networks.
