Live Buzzer Katie and her boo David are off to cover Pygmalion Music Festival in Urbana-Champaign, IL this weekend. They will be posting the highlights of the fest once they have returned.
Pygmalion bosts two Bloomington representatives, Early Day Miners and Horns of Happiness.
Which brings us to some badass news: EDM’s Jonathan Richardson will be guest blogging while on tour for the next few weeks. Keep an eye out for that.

The band also did a recent guide of B-town for Aquariam Drunkard that is a pretty gread read.

If you felt a low rumble last night on the south side of Bloomington last night, don’t worry: it wasn’t an earthquake, it was just the effect of all the rocking happening at Russian Recording. The next issue of Weekend is going to feature a show review and an interview with Pink Mountaintops mastermind Stephen McBean, but in the meantime, here are some pics to tide you over.

Sorry for the last-minute notice, but if you haven’t heard already: Pink Mountaintops will bringing some glorious noise to Bloomington’s own Russian Recording tonight!
The show starts at 9 p.m. with tourmates Quest For Fire and locals Tammar providing the opening entertainment. It’s all-ages, the cover is $8 and Russian Recording is located here.
So, c’mon out: nothing says “summer night in Bloomington” like cool drinks, chirping crickets, and lo-fi psychedelic folk rock!
