Wakarusa Music & Camping Festival Report and Photos: Day 2

The biggest enemy at Wakarusa is the heat. As soon as the sun comes up each day, the inside of the tent transforms into a sauna. No matter what time you went to bed the previous night, the heat acts as a natural alarm clock locked in at 7:30 a.m. The only way to hit the snooze button is to ooze out of the tent door and grab a few extra winks on the cool grass in the shade of the cars. But that only buys so much time as the sun climbs higher and higher into the sky....  read more

Bonnaroo 2008: Day 3

Apologies: I was unable to blog about Saturday at Bonnaroo because of Saturday at Bonnaroo. It's Sunday afternoon now, and with the festival still buzzing and thumping all around us (am currently at our tent in the Sonic Village, with a band called Harrybu McCage doing their thing on the stage next door) I'm just now getting around to processing everything from the past thirty-something hours. ...  read more

Ghostland Observatory readies for tour, new album

Electro-rock outfit Ghostland Observatory is ready to release its third LP, Robotique Majestique, on Feb. 23., and to celebrate, the band has lined up a few live dates. And much like the lovechild of The White Stripes and The Rapture, Ghostland will let you groove to the big beat before leveling you with a massive chorus. The hard playing duo will kick off the tour in its hometown of Austin, Texas, and will be making a stop at the Langerado Music Festival on March 8 (no surprise, as pretty much everyone in the world is playing there too, including the...  read more

Ghostland Observatory takes it to the Austin City Limits

Usually, PBS' Austin City Limits series inspires images of restrained gentility: Patty Griffin performing a spare acoustic set, Norah Jones tickling the ivories, or Wilco its thing. But occasionally, the organizers will throw viewers a curveball. Grindin', dirty electronic duo Ghostland Observatory certainly doesn't confirm to the Austin City Limits stereotype, but such exceptions to the rule are just what makes the series great. On Nov. 13, the Observatory will release a DVD of its performance for City Limits. It's the group's milestone first DVD release, so some sort of awkward celebratory dancing might be in order. Ghostland Observatory actually...  read more
