Truck Festival
After lengthy negotiations with the council, the Truck Festival organisers have completed their licence amendment for this year. This means they're able to increase the site capacity from 5000 to 6000. This means ore tickets are available! Buy one now!
La Plagne
I realise this isn't at all music related but with all the adrenaline filled competitions we've been running recently (Wakestock + Boardmasters) I thought I'd let you know about La Plagne. Basically it's a ski resort which turns into an extreme mountain biking trail when the summer rolls around and the snow packs up it's bags to head for Austria. So yeah, if you fancy battling the elements this summer I'd suggest going there!

I ask for a round two against the pills! I liked how the pill ladies are on screen during the bridge portion of the song. I guess nothing can stop us music lovers from hearing music. :) [view article]

Thanks for sharing! I really like the use of the tom toms and the harmonics on the guitar. Nice touches. It adds more dimension when appropriate. [view article]
