POPFEST!
Before any of you guys say it, I'll go ahead and save you the trouble: the Mavs just completed the most epic choke-job in the history of sports. I'm talking some Phil Mickelson, Boston Red Sox in the '86 World Series, Buffalo Bills "wide right"-type shit.
Metrognome Collective has just announced the lineup for their First Annual POPFEST!. The POPFEST! festival is a benefit show for the Metrognome Collective, and will get underway at 8pm on Friday, June 30th, 2006.

My boy Kevin has some live radio session mp3s from two of the West Coast's finest, Birdmonster and Cold War Kids.
And if you thought that CWK vs. Tapes 'n Tapes gridiron battle was intense, what about a Division Day vs. B-Monster rumble, complete with medieval weapons? I gotta give this one to D-Day. Come on Birdmonsters, what's so funny about a deadly knife fight?
