I mean, what does one exactly judge specifically when it comes to this type of list. The criteria is vague to say the ... Read More

Epicenter Festival 09 08/22/09 Fairplex: Pomona, CA Words/Photos by Reverend Justito Why waste time with a long introduction about the Fairplex at Pomona (you know, where they race ponies) lets just get to the f’n music!
