On Election Night, November 4, 2008, Bad Brains will play Washington D.C. It's the first time playing as "Bad Brains" in a long time and the mystique of being "banned in D.C." many years ago will surely add significance to this performance.

Playing at the 9:30 Club on Election Day 2008 for the pioneering punk band is one of four shows being announced. Bad Brains (original line up) will play:

November 4 - 9:30 Club, Washington D.C.
November 6 - Irving Plaza, NYC
Novermber 9 - Waterloo Park, Austin TX

Boulder power trio Rose Hill Drive are back for a second time around with their new studio album Moon is the new Earth. The 12-song stunner was written, recorded, produced and mixed by Rose Hill Drive—the boys got their hands all over this one!

David Fricke --"The songwriting is fierce and sharp."

Raoul Hernandez of Austin Chronicle -- "Rose Hill Drive left my jaw on the skeezy floor of Emo's front room."

Guitarist -- "If this doesn't make you want to pick up a Les Paul, you have no soul."

Not only that Rose Hill Drive has had the honor to share stages with everyone from Wilco  to Queens Of The Stone Age -- Even Van Halen requested Rose Hill Drive to open for them. The band also performed at a slew of summer festivals including Bonnaroo, Red Rocks, Austin City Limits, the Warped Tour, and London's Hyde Park Calling.
