Day 1 was long and tough, but Day 2 wasn't as bad. We got a later start and watched a bunch of NCAA basketball before hitting the circuit. We got to see a secret performance by Slash @ a Red Bull Party and then hit up the Blender Bar for the New Line showcase for most of the night. More than enough to keep us busy.
Slash @ Red Bull Party We got into the "secret" Red Bull Party and saw Slash play with a cover band. They rocked out on "Feel Like Makin' Love" and some Southern rock classics. Epic. ~ The Sights @ Blender Bar Click image for full gallery One of the earlier acts of the New Line/Scratchie showcase @ Blender Bar. Totally ripped through a half-dozen songs, eventually bringing out guitar pimp Danny Muggs on stage. Some serious fun was had on stage ~ Midnight Movies @ Blender Bar An interesting mix between all of the rock bands. Grooved their way through some new stuff off their upcoming album. ~

Detroit threesome back with main drummer, Dave Shettler. Rocked out with strobe lights and the works. So sweet. ~ Office @ Blender Bar A solid in-betweener. Lead singer Scott Masson wore a wig onstage, which he pulled off about halfway through. They played a bunch of solid tunes from Q&A, including "Dominoes". ~ Robbers On High Street @ Blender Bar Click image for full gallery Definitely kept the momentum going. Some songs off their recent EP made them stand out. Members of Office eventually joined them onstage. ~
Menomena @ Buffalo Billiards Unfortunately, it took them about 45 minutes to set up, which left them really short on time. They played about four songs, which was a mix of old and new. Most of the time, however, a really crappy mosh pit broke out near the front of the stage.
