Wooleystock 2009
Wooleystock 2009 was a music festival at the Wooley Street Gallery in Atlanta. It was based around music, love, peace and free beer.
Carnivores and Living Rooms performed until 2 am, illuminated by a projector playing "Bum Fights 2" on repeat. Admission and booze were free and the crowd was treated to an evening to remember (if possible). Not even a scuffle on an empty Peters St or a few local crackheads could dampen the mood for the crowd which dispersed shortly before 3.

Steel Harmony plays Joy Division's "Transmission"
My friend and I were having a conversation that begin with, If you're wearing a band's tee shirt, you better be able to name some songs. For me, Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures shirt takes the cake, worn by pseudo hipsters who never heard of the band until the film Control came out and subsequently "Love Will Tear Us Apart" became the anthem for a generation who for the most part doesn't know the first thing from postpunk.
