Whew! Well that was fun. The rain dried up just in time, the temperatures hovered in the seventies, the people came out in droves, and the bands -- oh the bands. Washington Avenue's regulars didn't know what hit them, as over fifty of our city's finest musical acts brought down house after house for twelve solid hours from 3 p.m. to 3 a.m.

Brad Paisley Fans Split on "Accidental Racist" in the Parking Lot Last Night Before His Show

We asked Brad Paisley fans what they thought of "Accidental Racist", now that the dust has settled.
It's been about a month since the controversy surrounding bad-idea song of the decade "Accidental Racist," the duet by Brad Paisley and LL Cool J, exploded all over everyone.

Paisley's on tour now, and last night he arrived at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in suburban St. Louis. Photographer Jon Gitchoff took a quick survey of fans about that song, now that the white-hot heat that only masses of bloggers can create, has cooled.

Most fans liked the song -- "it's an amazing song", "[it's] a truthful song" -- but a few, not so much: "it sucked."

Kansas City rapper Tech N9ne performed at Pop's last night to a pacPop'sked house of hip-hop heads, wicked clowns and juggalos. Though the artist is not officially a part of Psychopathic records (Tech N9ne releases records through his own label, Strange Music), the rapid-fire rapper gets a lot of love from that camp, having performed repeatedly at the Gathering of the Juggalos.
