Phish Rocks the House at Super Ball IX

The Vermont quartet delivered a monumental series of performance that conjured a Scott Pilgrim vs the World status – “an epic of epic epicness”. There seems to be only one band that has the dedicated fan base to stage its own mega-festival with no supporting acts.

STS9: 20 & 21 April 2012 - Oakland, CA

In the end, the two-night stand leaves one with the feeling that a new age of peace and harmony could indeed be just around the bend. The vibrational arts of tone scientists like STS9 have a healing power and can conjure such a positive collective consciousness.

The Mother Hips: 24 March 2012 - San Diego

Willie Nelson & Family + Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real: 7 March 2012 - San Diego
