"The 2008 POPPED! Music Festival pops off at Philadelphia's Drexel University June 20-22, and based on the first act alone, we can tell you this thing will be a doozy.
Not only will Philly's favorite sons the Roots curate the first night of next year's fest, they will also perform catalog hallmark Things Fall Apart in its entirety, Don't Look Back-stylee. Hot dang." [Pitchfork]

Wow. That is kick-ass. What a great album - worth the price of admission (and more) to see that performed live and in its entirety.

Yesterday, the Fairmount Park Commission voted to table approval of a multi-day, multi-stage concert in Fairmount Park. In the next 2 weeks, they'll be taking public comment. In order to keep the
festival here in Philadelphia, we need you and your readers to reach out to the Executive Director of the Park and your local Councilperson. LET THEM KNOW WE'RE NOT GOING TO LET THEM BLOW THIS!
