10 July 06 13:40focus show, other shows
Tune in to whpk this friday from 7 to 9 and you will catch a special show where I focus on the various work of insano drummer Zach Hill! It will be totally rad. I previously posted some links to mp3s by some of the groups he has played in. That entry is here.
Also, I added a few shows to the (recently empty) list on the right hand side of this page. This summer seems pretty stacked with cool punk shows. I haven't even included Lollapalooza, which will feature the second-to-last performance by Sleater-Kinney, or the Pitchfork Music Festival, which features Os Mutantes, Ted Leo, Mission of Burma, Mountain Goats, and probably some other stuff.
