Is there any better price than $0.00 free? Not when the electric bill looks like the tally from a bad night in Vegas and your 401K is smouldering to nothing. It's good to know that you can still enjoy great live music completely free if you know where to look. Baltimore offers the frugal many chances to get out and do the wallet-free hokey pokey. For instance, get in step with the pre-Preakness party crowd for two nights of free concerts leading up to race day, just one example of free music if you know where to find it. Here's some more information that should help.

There are free outdoor concerts at several sites in and around Baltimore:

• Harborplace Amphitheater
• Patterson Park & Belvedere Square
• Lurman Woodland Theater (Catonsville)
  
• Lexington Market

Other venues in the local area that will offer free shows this season are the Carter Barron Amphitheatre at Rock Creek Park, the SoWeBo Festival, May 24 at Hollins Market in Baltimore (scroll to the bottom for music schedule), and Artscape, in the Bolton Hill Neighborhood, July 17-19 (schedule TBA).

This is just a small collection of what's on tap for free. Check back for future installments of where to find free music in Balitmore.
