Sasquatch 2008: Day 2

image not available

The early hours of Day 2 were less than stellar, but not for lack of talent. To quote the legendary Milli Vanilli, "Blame it on the rain." Although the drops fell for much of the first part of the day, the music played on, ultimately winning out over the weather....  read more

Tonight, they play a benefit for the American Museum of Natural History in New York City (tickets are still available here), the theme of which is "Enchanted Forest" (awesome!).

Band of the Week: White Rabbits

London is rather fond of unyielding, smash-guitar-and-everything-in-sight rock. Which is why the stoic response the city gave White Rabbits on their recent England jaunt is surprising, especially when you consider the six members of the band specialize in locomotive-piano rock...  read more
