We admit it, there are just too many awesome bands for us to choose to write profiles on. So what we will do here, is pick 20 bands we think you should checkout and tell you why they are great in ten words are less…go!

(Set times for bands can be found by following links)

Night of Joy…

Illegal Pete’s constructed a really nice write up on Air Dubai for the UMS. Come see AD play at the Hi Dive on broadway at midnight on Saturday!

Should this young man — whose nature was apparently so obvious to his mother that, when a ABC News reporter called, she said “You have the right person” — have been able to buy guns, ammunition and explosives? The gun lobby will say yes. And the endless gun control debate will begin again, and the lobbyists of the National Rifle Association will go to work, and the op-ed thinkers will have their usual thoughts, and the right wing will issue alarms, and nothing will change. And there will be another mass murder. That James Holmes is insane, few may doubt. Our gun laws are also insane, but many refuse to make the connection. The United States is one of few developed nations that accepts the notion of firearms in public hands. In theory, the citizenry needs to defend itself. Not a single person at the Aurora, Colo., theater shot back, but the theory will still be defended.

Governor Romney has stated that he would not reinstate that Assault Weapons Ban. In fact, Governor Romney does not support any new gun laws including a ban on semi-automatic firearms.
