Alright. The rundown. Jet?? No. Lupe Fiasco, worth a shot. He's also at Sonar in Baltimore on December 10. Deftones, I'll be there. Gwar, that's worth seeing one time in your life. Ray LaMontagne, I would be there except, well, it's 30 bucks. Matisyahu does a pretty good live bit, but he's turning into somewhat of a parlor trick. Gogol Bordello is supposed to be wicked live, so that's worth checking into. Thievery Corporation, 3 days in a row? Aren't people over them yet? And Hatebreed, heck yeah. But I'm going when they are at Ram's Head Live with Killswitch Engage on December 15.

And here's some MP3s of pure effin' metal:
Cassius "Home"
The End "Throwing Stones"
