It was exactly what I expected...

With the direction in which music sales have traveled lately, record labels have become less important. Social networking and learning... 

The Pop Punks not Dead Tour didn’t make it to Indianapolis but it did make a stop at the Chicago House of Blues (HOB.) The night at the House of Blues was amazing from the moment we arrived til the moment the show ended.
