Just Announced

What does he sound like? This is all I could find:

Morgan Clamp is writing songs for YOU. â??Make no mistakes about it, I'm only interested in making songs that lots of
people can feel a bond with� says Clamp. After several years of writing and recording, this young artist has found his voice.

With an arsenal of catchy songs that have been described as both Alternative Rock and Pop, and compared to the likes of Matchbox 20 and U2, Clamp has created a simple recipe for great songs â??Keep them relatable, and keep them real.
There are enough bands out there singing about nothing.�

Born outside of Toronto , Canada into a British family, Morgan caught onto his love of music at an early age.
â??My dad was always playing his John Lennon tapes in the car during our long drives and when I would get home my older
brother would let me into his room to listen to the records of his favourite artists such as Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty�.
The music bug had begun to set in.

Field Day Festival is off

The Field Day Music Festival for 2005 is off. The festival, which rumoured to have Radiohead as headliners, had scrapped plans for a July concert at Greig Farm. Instead, promoters will focus their efforts on summer 2006.

The festival was scheduled for July 16-17. It was expected to draw about 30,000 people a day, with three nights of camping. Promoter Andrew Dreskin had hoped the show would be the first of many Field Day festivals at the farm.

The Red Hook town board had given approval for a mass gathering permit last year on the condition all other state and county requirements were satisfied.

In a press release, show promoter Andrew Dreskin said difficulty scheduling talent, along with the challenges of meeting the requirements of state mass-gathering permits, led to the decision to cancel this year's show.

This isn't the first time the Field Day show has run into difficulty. In 2003 when Radiohead were on the bill as well, the venue had to be shifted from Riverhead, Suffolk County, to Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., because town officials backed out at the last minute.

lolol !!!!

i seem to be mis-typing a lot this morning … i meant to say, "I wonder if I, like many others, could also contract herpes from Carlos D?" not "I wonder if I could contract herpes from Carlos D, in addition to the others who have given me the socially debilitating disease"

it's probably another kids show. . .
Of my friends in VA, no one has an SUV and two have hybrids. Not bad, really.
