Virgin Mobile Free Fest Lineup Announced

Sup errrrbody!? Today, Richard Branson, king of Virgin Mobile, announced the lineup for the now annual Virgin Mobile Free Fest. I have to say I'm a bit disappointed. There were rumors going around that Foo Fighters were going to play. It seems like Branson & Co. took a cue from the electronic scene that's blowing up right now and put a lot of emphasis on it. Now don't get me wrong, The Black Keys, an amazing blues rock duo is playing. A few other indie bands are playing as well, but Deadmau5 is going to be in attendance and you know what that means? The place will be flooded with mau5heads. I don't like electronic music too much, but sometimes it really hits me. I would have loved to see somebody like Bassnectar on the bill, rather than Mau5. I feel he's more creative and better suited for a festival atmosphere (but I've never seen either, only heard stories so don't listen to me too much (: ). Anyway here's a sick song from the Black Keys newest album "Brothers" to keep you guys happy. Peace and love.

Keepin' It Real

For anybody that knows The Black Keys, well this is their lead singer Dan Auerbach.
Pretty good lookin' fellow if you ask me. Dude plays some seriously good licks too, whether he's with the Keys or solo. Here's a tidbit from the solo album

...ps this is the song of the day, keep it real
