September 29, 2008

About a month ago I realized that I had the opportunity to see over 20 bands in about the same number of nights; I figured it could be a cool little “feat of strength” while on vacation. But I ran into something much bigger and more powerful than myself: mother nature. The adventure came up [...]

Black Moth Super Rainbow @ The Empty Bottle, Chicago 9/11/08

September 29, 2008

Forward Music Festival 2008

September 25, 2008

I knew coming into this past weekend that Forward Music Festival (FMF) would be fun and a chance to return to the city of my college years, but I was also impressed at how easily that fun was had. It was one of the better weekends that Madison has ever had to offer me, and [...]
