Friday Free-Style

There's a whole bunch of stuff going on in Atlanta this weekend. The Inman Park Festival is always a good time. I'll definitely be checking out the Space Rock Con 2007. Silent Kids, The Preakness, and Mary O. Harrison at Lenny's will be a great Friday night show. No matter what you do this weekend, make sure to record the Henry Rollins Show on IFC tonight because The Mars Volta will be performing some kick ass stuff you can check out here. In fact, you should watch this amazing performance in its 47 minute entirety, Live At the Lowlands (aka one of the best DVD Bootlegs I Own):



Seriously, if you didn't watch that TMV video, you are missing out.

Pitchfork Fest, aka the Best American Festival of the Year, just added Califone, The Sea And Cake, Yoko Ono, and some bands i don't recognize. Chicago gets some killer fests.

The awesome Coachella Festival kicks off today. I wish I could have gone because the two I went to before were amazing. The hotel in the desert that I paid to stay in before tickets sold out keeps calling me and it's annoying. I'll be checking out the webcast as you should. I've watched several fests on webcast and they are pretty cool. Remember when you're wasted late night, go to your computer and watch Sonic Youth and Bjork. You won't be disappointed.
