Play:STL '08 Festival...

...is happening September 18-20, in the Loop.

PLAY:STL '08 Rocks Your World.

Yay! And I'm working on it, so drop me a line if you have questions.

If you play music and want to submit to be in the festival through sonicbids go here.

And you're going to be hearing about it a lot, so get used to it, my lovelies.

Oh, and PS...I'm also going to start writing content for Playback:STL, so I'll be looking for local music news, and musicians who want to be interviewed/featured/watched/listened to/my new friends. I'll be contacting people myself, once I get going, but again, you can always contact me.

PPS. Sorry for the somewhat shameless self-promotion, but I'm excited for the festival.

Title

There is a new Throwback Track of the Week above. Yay! This is one of my favorite new weekly tasks, one reason being that it makes me smile maniacally when I listen to all these old bands again. Leaping lizards, is there anyone more nostalgic than current twenty-somethings?! So I'll try and do a real update tomorrow with whatever news I can scrounge up. For now, listen to Nerve, and pour some out for one's homies (um...sp?) because an era is ending soon. Bernie and Barbara McDonald are ending a VERY long stint of performing at McGurk's in Soulard in September, and Monday nights will never be the same. THIS IS TRAGIC. Furthermore, our favorite McG's bartender Justin has decided to further wreck my world, and his last day is next Monday. C'mon people, you can't just lay this all on me in one sitting. So I'll be working on some kind-of B&B tribute, and in the meantime, go hear them Sun/Mon at McG's while you still can.

*unrelated note of glee-OK, read the note about "woot" above in the TTW disclaimer. Seriously. It came from D&D? Even if this is not true, I am going to pretend it is, because that. is. awesome.
