Last night we launched The Fest 7's new Web site. If you don't know what The Fest 7 is, go directly to the site, buy a ticket right now, and don't make any other plans for Halloween weekend. Trust me. It will be the most fun you ever had. For those who do know what The Fest 7 is, I'm assuming you already went the Web site to buy your tickets and that you aren't reading this sentence.

This year, just like last, Richard Minino (Horsebites Design) did some KILLER work, handling all of the illustration for The Fest 7. We've worked with Richard on a few Web projects now, and each time, when the project is over, I think to myself, "This shit rules! Wait...is that because we did a good job, or because we had amazing illustrations to work with?". I'd like to think it's both.

For me, the best part of this project was getting to hear a ton of awesome new (to me) music. Since every band has their own profile page on the Web site, we were sent all of their information, including mp3s. Early on, I promised myself that I would listen to each and every band that is playing The Fest. Best decision I've ever made. Here's just a few of my new (again, new to me) favorites:

• Laura Stevenson and The Cans
• City of Ships
• Vultures United
• Young Hearts

There's so many more. I may do a few updates.

Anyway, October 31st through November 2nd, Team Doom will be in Gainesville, FL getting sloshed and having the best time ever. You should too.
