Just statistically speaking, there's a good chance your Humboldt Saturday is going to be spent balancing beer and bivalve consumption at the 34th annual Arcata Bay Oyster Festival. It can be a lot for a brain to handle. So we thought we'd dedicate this space as a quick reference for the event's musical offerings. Here's your Arcata Plaza soundtrack.
