I guess myspace is still good for something. The bulletin below just caught my attention. I sure hope I can get in without a wrist band. I’m interested in seeing what other bands are “part of the Saddle Creek showcase”. As odd as this may sound, I hope Bright Eyes is NOT part of it, because there’s no way in hell I’d get in, as the place would be packed.
