Warped Tour is the gift that keeps on giving, at least for this Phillyist. We got to hear some great bands there, and we're going to continue following some of them. One of those bands is Monty Are I. Monty rocked our socks off at Warped, and they'll be back tomorrow night at the Trocadero with Sum 41, Amber Pacific and Schoolyard Heroes. Monty's latest album, , is starting to pick up some buzz, thanks largely to the single "Between the Sheets," which you should be listening to right now. If you're not, hit play on the video above and check it out. So we love the song, and we think the whole album is pretty good, if a bit over-produced. We actually wish it didn't sound quite so clean. Monty won us over at Warped with a really raw, aggressive sound, and we're looking forward to more of that tomorrow night.

When we go to review events (or at least when this Phillyist does), we generally go into them with the presumption that we're going to really enjoy them. Unfortunately, doing so can really set us up for disappointment. And Linkin Park's Projekt Revolution was really something of a letdown. We're not quite sure who to blame for that: the bands, the day's sound engineers, or the Vans Warped Tour, where we had such a good time a few weeks ago. All day long, we couldn't help but compare the two all-day multi-stage festival-style concerts. And Warped Tour was superior in just about every way.

Summer's winding down—or at least that's what the weather has told us the last few days—but one of the big "festival" concerts is coming through town this weekend, so the summer can't quite be done yet. Linkin Park's Projekt Revolution tour hits the Tweeter Center this Saturday. In addition to headliners Linkin Park, the tour features My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, HIM, and a number of others. Plus, the Major League Baseball Road Show featuring batting cages and video game kiosks will be at the show, so if there are any bands you're not interested in seeing, you'll still have some fun stuff to do.

With so many amazing concerts in such a short period of time, it's inevitable that you'll run into a few doozies. Unfortunately for me, that doozy was Sunday night at North Star Bar. Earlier in the summer, I saw the band MAE open for Ok Go and The Fray at the Tweeter Center. Their six-song set was fun and enjoyable, but not completely engaging. I faulted the venue, crowd, and the fact that MAE had...

On of our favorite shows this summer was the MAE/Ok Go/The Fray concert at the Tweeter Center. Imagine 25,000 screaming fans, perfect weather and awesome seats. It was incredible. Though we are a huge fan of intimate settings and up-and-coming bands, we enjoyed the huge crowd, music and overall feel of the outdoor concert. It really was the perfect way to start the summer. Now, we are fortunate to end our summer with an intimate,...

We love when we get the opportunity to see a ton of bands in one shot. We love it even more when a couple of the bands are old favorites of ours and others are bands we've never heard of, because it gives us the chance to check out some new music, and if we don't like what we hear, we can always go back to the stuff we know and be completely satisfied. That's why we're pumped up for tomorrow's Vans Warped Tour at the Tweeter Center.

25,000 people packed into the Tweeter Center on Sunday night to see Mae, Ok Go and The Fray. Judging by how many people were there, I'm sure that some of you readers were there as well. I had a night that won't soon be forgotten. Treated like a royal, I was a escorted back to Mae's tour bus for an exclusive interview (look for it soon). I chatted, in the back of the tour...

Okay, the title is a bit misleading but good lord, there were a lot of teenagers at the Fall Out Boy concert on Friday night at the Tweeter Center. I miscalculated the strong presence of junior high girls that would be at this concert. I knew there would be some, but I have to say the majority of this sold-out arena were 14-16 year old girls with shirts that said, "I dig guys in girl pants." Yes, I did do a double-take and yes, I did make my wife write the saying down so I could mention it in this post. Girl pants? What? If a boy wore girl pants when I was in junior high, he would have been ridiculed to eternity. The only other shirts I saw were the variety of Fall Out Boy shirts that were being sold at the merchandise table.

Even though we kinda just bitched you out for not going to smaller venues and supporting smaller artists, we would love it if you joined us tonight over the bridge at Camden's large outdoor venue, The Tweeter Center. Yes, we're sure there will be a lot of emo and punk kids there but for whatever it's worth, it's going to be an experience and hopefully a fun one. The 2007 Honda Civic Tour features five...

The Graduate's debut CD entitled Anhedonia is definitely not lacking what the CD's title refers to. Anhedonia is the loss of capacity to experience pleasure. It usually occurs in people with depression and schizophrenia. This is not what we felt as we listened to their new CD. Again, Philly's music scene is rockin' and this is a show you should run to before The Graduate becomes so big you'll have to buy lawn tickets at...

Here at Phillyist, we were really excited to have Farm Aid come to Camden. What a great idea! We are, after all, Jersey fresh. We were still excited to see the likes of Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews talk on Saturday morning about how important it is to support the family farmer, about how food corporations are monsters, about how the high calorie/high fat food we serve our kids is killing them, about how important it is to know where our food comes from.

Going to Farm Aid? A few things to remember:
