MusicFestNW Day2-Free Booze and Fresh Beats

So I marched into Day 2 of fest 2008 by meeting up with pals Rachel, Drew and Brandon at a VIP party outside the Wonder Ballroom.

Nothing like free booze and snacks to properly begin a night. We also took great delight at the R&B hits of the 90's being spun by the House DJ.

From there it was inside the Wonder for Battles, a noiserock band out of New York that I was less than impressed with.

After that we quickly realized we had run into a situation of all the shows we wanted to see overlapping.

First was Singer-Songwriter M. Ward at the Crystal, Ward sounded great but I must admit I was a tad dissapointed it was him by himself and not his fantastic side project with actress Zooey Deschanel.

After a few tunes it was off to The Roseland for the tale end of a set by an up-and-coming Hip-Hop artist BuKu One, followed by a great set by Del The Funky Homosapien.

Tongiht brings many a highlight. Built To Spill and TV on the Radio among others.
