Walk The Rio win a spot on this Sunday's WARPED TOUR!

CONGRATS to Fullerton band Walk The Rio. They just won the Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands, which means they are playing this Sunday's Warped Tour in LA! WTR went up against 1,200 bands and kicked BUTT! Not surprised... Orange County music rocks.

Go check them out this Sunday at Warped Tour and please hoot and holler for them since I can't be there, unfortunately KUCI has a concert in the park to support that day.

Happy holiday weekend!

On this week's show I played a few new bands to Press Pass Music. They included Moostache, Andrew Heringer Band, Hollowell, Will Crum, Marc B and Walk The Rio. Just by looking at these bands and hearing the sounds they produce, you can tell how diverse Orange County music really is. I love it!!!!!

What are you doing for New Year's? Well, whatever it is, hopefully you'll spend it with good friends, good booze and good spirits. It's what you make it. You have to know you're going to have a great time. It doesn't matter how much you spend on a hotel or club party, ex. Party hopping in Santa Barbara last year and getting locked out of a friends and crashing at some random but very nice people's house. ; ) The best New Year's ever! Again my New Year's Resolution for 2009 is to bring Orange County the biggest New Year's party with five to eight local bands for 2010 and to go to more shows!

Have a wonderful time you guys! OH and next week's show is my pick for the best songs of 2008.... also, I will be surveying locals on their favs too. If you have a favorite song from a local musician... send me an email: ashleyeliot@yahoo.com and I will dedicate that song to you.

Keep supporting local independent music!

<3 Ash
