Riot Fest & Carnival 2013 Announces Initial Line-Up


Riot Fest & Carnival has announced its initial line-up for 2013! Riot Fest will be happening this year on September 13-15 at Humboldt Park in Chicago. Tickets are already on sale (since last night) and you can see the 3 dates starting at $69.98. The lineup is quite impressive despite some bands I could care less about. Fall Out Boy seems to be headlining but bands I actually like playing include: Motorhead, Rancid, Public Enemy, Flag, Bad Religion, DeVotchka, Screeching Weasel, Pennywise, The Lillingtons, Against Me!, GWAR, X, Bad Brains, Quicksand, The Selecter, Toots and the Maytals, Chuck Ragan, Mephiskapheles, Masked Intruder, Deal’s Gone Bad and more to be announced later! I wish I was going to this but who knows if I’ll be on vacation or not. See the entire lineup and details below!

Phil Chevron of The Pogues Has Inoperable Cancer


Sad news was posted on Pogues.com today as guitarist Phil Chevron has made public that his cancer has returned. Philip had cancer few years ago but sadly, it has returned and doesn’t seem to be operable. It’s really hard fighting back the tears right now honestly. I’m hoping Philip will do what Wilko Johnson is doing and just keep on living each day to the fullest until the curfew. This news is such a fucking bummer.

Music Video: Dig It Up – “Eyes On Me”


If you like air guitar, air drumming, air bassing(?) then you’ll want to watch this Dig It Up music video of “Eyes On Me.” The band pretends to rock out in the middle of the woods with nothing but their air instruments. Eventually they play real instruments though. Sorry, should have put a spoiler tag in front of that.
