Bumbershoot Bound

We're off to Seattle today for Bumbershoot. We'll be live blogging the festival every day so check back often for whats happening at one of the best music festivals around. Our favorite photographer Kyle Johnson will be joining Sunday to shoot some more killer pictures and MJ, Chief Rocka and Myself will be getting you up to the date info on whats going down. You can look for interviews for the likes of Iceage Cobra, D. Black, Art Brut, and more. As well as video from some of the KEXP secret sessions.

Along with the festival we'll be covering our friends Eclectic Approaches performance at the Chop Suey and Whiskey Tango's performance at The Comet, which is being billed as the anti-Bumbershhoot. It's going to be a great three days of music in Seattle and we'll be bringing you all the action as it happens. Gander On!

Shit We're Digging - Fences

We discovered Fences aka Chris Mansfield about four months ago through our favorite photographer Kyle Johnson. We gave the demo entitled "Ultimate Puke Demos" a listen and we loved it. Now Fences is in the process of recording his first E.P. and we can't wait. His style is one you can't pin down and his music and lyrics paint pictures of finding happiness in a city where it rains more than shines.

Besides being our favorite photographer Kyle also directed the first video for Fences for "My Girl The Horse." It's a melancholy ride through a day in the life of one of Seattle's great up and coming musicians.

You can listen to a couple songs off of "The Ultimate Puke Demos" on Fences Myspace page and if your like us you'll probably have it bookmarked. You can also catch him on August 22nd at the Crocodile Cafe.

Gander On!

Sasquatch Festival Day 1 Wrap Up

As the Arcade Fire play the last few songs of the set we're looking back on a day that felt like it would never end. As we strolled in The Saturday Knights let us know that their 45 was droppin and The Hold Steady rocked a small crowd like it was Madison Square Garden. The Blow kept a smile on our face with her political satire and witty commentary, not to mention the girl dressed like a unicorn. Ghostland was the highlight of our day as they channeled Freddy Mercury and fought through a power outage to provide the sun burned crowd with plenty of energy to dance off. Mirah was a much needed break before the thirty minute wait for the Beastie Boys Instrumental Set. Money Mark hit the Korg with a fury and Mike D layed it down on the stand-up bass. Manu Chao brought the dancing fools to floor and kept us pumped for the Arcade Fire, who as I type just finished playing. We're going off the grid for Bjork so check back tomorrow for some of Kyle's great Arcade Fire pics and a review of our favorite Icelandic singers show.

Keep The Car Running..... We'll see you tomorrow. Gander On!
