You're really lucky if you know about AT&T Blue Room*

*And now you do.

I'm pretty lucky, too. AT&T Blue Room is once again bringing Lollapalooza to the Internet for anyone who is interested in watching.

While I do have to work Friday night, I've got the rest of the weekend off. My lovely wife can read the below schedule and make note of certain blocks of time indicating my extreme interest in exercising sole ownership of the laptop.

Have fun and enjoy some free music. I do love The Blue Room.


A question for my readers:

Are there any bands I haven't placed an asterisk next to that I really must hear? Watching the brilliant mayhem that is Gogol Bordello at Coachella earlier this year made me a fan of theirs. Surely, there are some here who I'm not already familiar with who will knock me out.

All times are E.T.

Holy cow, Flogging Molly and Blues Traveler on the same day. I know what I'm watching Sunday.

Oooh, Flogging Molly sounds great. I had only heard of them until now. This is likely the band that will get me the most when I tune in.

Oh, AWESOME.

You hit all the ones I would have. I've also heard good things about Margot and the Nuclear So and So's, DeVotchka, and The National, though I haven't heard enough to judge for myself on any of them.

Thanks for the heads-up :). Oh, and nice new design. Reminds me of something...;).
