New video from ex member of Blood Brothers, as if you couldn’t tell.
Off Hattin, available now.
In the summer of 1995, Kevin Lyman’s dream of a tour combining music and sports – with an affordable ticket price – came to fruition. THE WARPED TOUR has since become the longest-running, most successful traveling music festival in American history, attracting multiple generations and unmatched loyalty.
Unlike its competitors, WARPED is much larger than its roster of bands and activities; it’s a gathering place for a community. However much they may very in style, attitude and musical taste, WARPED fans share a sense of freedom and exhilaration that can’t be found elsewhere.
In a fast-paced assemblage of performances candid interviews and intimate moments, we see why WARPED is the contemporary festival that comes closest to the spirit of Woodstock.
This two-disc DVD gives fans and first-timers alike an unforgettable, in-depth glimpse of the WARPED experience.

Switchblade Comb started 366 days ago with the posting of a Daft Punk video. Tonight we celebrate our first year at the Nomad World Pub with some of our favorite people in the world. We hope you can make it too.
Again I’d like to say a big thank you to our readers and everyone else that has shown us some love this year!
A lot of people spend the holidays by themselves. Some people do what I did a few years back and spend the day drinking a bottle of Jim Beam and listening to Leonard Cohen records. Other people choose to spend the day posting demos, acoustic versions of their awesome rock songs, and new videos on the internet.
Guess which one Ryan Adams chose to do…
“Halloweenhead” (acoustic home jam)
“Evergreen” (acoustic home jam)
“Rosebud” (acoustic home jam)
“Wild & Hopeless” (demo)
“Please, Hold On…” (demo)
“So Quiet, It’s Loud” (demo)
“Angel-Smiles” (demo)
