SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3RD
FREE Daytime Line Up:
12:00pm – 12:45pm
DJ Fashen:
Fashen won the 2007 Rock Star Energy Drink / BPM Magazine's "Next On The Decks" national search.
1:00pm– 2:15pm
Yamn:
Yamn demonstrates the ability to breed a new monster. A diversified blend of Pink Floyd, Frank Zappa, Particle, and jazz influences produces a child of complexity and flare, losing the tattered flag waved by the typical jam band and raising a new one of zest and newborn personality.
2:45pm– 4:00pm
Something Underground:
Seth and Josh Larson, The Larson Brothers, have been singing and playing music together since the ages of six and two, respectively. Their tightness and tone could have you believing that the Righteous Brothers hooked up with the Indigo Girls, and had two Boys to Men. These two brothers fluidly switch between harmonies and melodies, as well as guitar, bass, keys and drums. They formed Something Underground in the year 2000 shortly after moving to Colorado and are approaching 1000 shows with the band.
SATURDAY NIGHT SHOW – Copper Conference Center - $12 - Doors Open: 8:00pm
ALL AGES SHOW – Parental guidance suggested. Some material may not be appropriate for children.

DJ Babu from Dilated Peoples:
DJ Babu born Chris Oroc, DJ Babu is a member of Dilated Peoples and the on-again/off-again DJ crew Beat Junkies. Babu has won multiple competition titles including the DMC Championship in 1997 and multiple ITF titles. As a revered battle DJ he has appeared in and hosted numerable videos and -- under the name Turntablist -- produced perhaps the genre's most popular battle record, 1996's Super Duck Breaks.
9:30pm - 10:45pm
Rahzel:
Rahzel the undisputed "Godfather of Noyze" has re-defined the beat box. A self-defined "vocal percussionist," Rahzel (rhymes with 'gazelle') has perfectly mastered this quintessential hip hop art form and has emerged as a "true virtuoso." To hear him is to be converted.
Billboard Magazine proclaims:
"Everyone should experience his fascinating rhythms…using just his lips, cheeks, gums, and Adam's apple he (recreates), with amazing accuracy and detail..., "His mockery of instruments/arcade of sounds leaves audiences captivated, wondering "is he for real?"
Rahzel is best known as a member of The Roots, hip hop's cutting-edge live band.
11:15pm- 12:30pm
The Beatnuts:
The Beatnuts are a hip hop crew from Queens, New York City. Their production is noted as some of the most accomplished, if unheralded, in all of hip-hop, often intricately detailed (as in their finely honed work for Mos Def on two tracks from Black on Both Sides) but more regularly barnstorming, club-friendly, flourish-laden party music. Recent Beatnuts albums are characterized by more Latin influences.
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 4TH
FREE Daytime Line Up:
12:00pm – 1:30pm
Tim Reynolds:
Reynolds is a guitarist who rises above the mere mastery of chops to a virtual state of communion with his instrument. Reynolds makes use of every capacity the guitar possesses. He has brought a whole new sensibility to his instrument with his wide-ranging musical ability. When this self-taught musician performs it is a symphony of the senses.
2:00pm – 3:30pm
Outformation with Sam Holt, Jeff Layne and CR Gruver:
After the 2002 passing of forty-year-old Widespread Panic guitarist Michael Houser, Sam Holt, Houser's guitar tech, experienced this moment of clarity as he realized the critical need to make the most of his time. It was Houser's death that served as the catalyst for Sam Holt to dedicate himself to Outformation.
In response to Outformation's auspicious entrance to the music world, the rising stars were named "Best New Band" of 2005 in Honest Tune Magazine's reader's poll. But it's not just readers and writers of Honest Tune who have taken notice, with tour dates selling out across the country it appears that fans of blue-collar, hard-nosed rock & roll are taking notice everywhere.
