However, if you can't make it the Friday's show, Saturday should be a fantastic consolation prize. Two bands from Chicago, Tornavalanche and Tight Phantomz are playing, as are MFR Favorites Vampire Hands. Also on the bill, making their live debut, is Double Bird, an offshoot of Modern Radio flagship band Signal To Trust. Listen to MP3s of some of the mentioned artists above.
