Been waiting for a new video from The Gaslight Anthem for a while now and here it is…
They are playing in Columbus on July 28th with Chamberlin and Tim Barry.
Yeah, I’ll be at that show. Would not miss it for the world…

Congrats to Jeremy who just won a pair of tickets I had up for grabs for the Scion Rock Fest.
Thank you to everyone who entered!!!
Ok so that is not entirely true. Rock lives everywhere. Rock is where the heart is? Ok, I will stop.
Now you can buy rock in Columbus, not that I know that personally or anything, but you can also rock out hardcore for a weekend thanks to Rock On The Range returning to the Columbus Crew Stadium on May 22nd and 23rd. This will be the festival’s fourth run in the center city of Ohio and the lineup caught my attention more so this year than any other year before.
When I see that Coheed & Cambria, The Deftones, Helmet, Rise Against, Mastodon, and Killswitch Engage are all playing over one weekend I immediately want to go.
Other bands appearing at the festival are Godsmack, Rob Zombie, Three Days Grace, Limp Bizkit, Seether, Slash, Papa Roach, Five Finger Death Punch, Bullet For My Valentine, Theory of a Deadman, Puddle of Mudd, Sevendust, Drowning Pool, Skillet, Apocalyptica, Halestorm, Airbourne, Mushroomhead, Adelitas Way, Escape the Fate, Cold, Anberlin, Nonpoint, 2Cents, Violent Soho, Janus, Shaman’s Harvest, Year Long Disaster, Taddy Porter, Like A Storm, and Noise Auction
I can tolerate some of the acts but others I just can not stand and I fear if I go I am going to be punished…
Couple other personal comments in regards to the line up:
I’ll be thinking about this heavily over the next few weeks. I would hate to miss the opportunity of seeing a couple of my favorite bands but I do not know if I have it in me to sit though the whole weekend. We shall see.
If you are interested in the festival head over to Rock On The Range’s website for ticket information as well as other info in regards to the weekend rock-out.
Looking for a way to rock out for free? Well if you live in the Columbus area you are in luck…

So how do you get your tickets to this free event you ask? You can RSVP by 02/15/2010 or you can post a comment on this here blog and I will choose one winner and give them a pair of tickets I have acquired thanks to Revolver Magazine. My only rule for this contest of sorts is that you are over the age of 18 and actually plan on attending.
I read the FAQ on the Scion Rock Fest site and there is something there that states “entry is not guaranteed” and I am thinking that is for the folk who did not get tickets or their name put on a roll call.
I’ll pick a winner on 02/20/2010. Don’t forget to enter your email address!
