Orlando, FL dudes How Dare You rocked The Venue's side hatch on Saturday afternoon of The Fest 8, power issues be damned. Check out their new split 7" with The Knockdown on Kiss of Death Records.

Laura Stevenson and the Cans got The Fest 8 off to a rousing start for a lot of us on early Friday evening at Civic Media Center. "Mouthbreather" is a track from their new 7" for Mandible Records, Holy Ghost. Stream it at punknews.org/bands/laurastevenson

Sakes Alive!! were a late addition to The Fest 8, and proved their worthiness with a raucous set at the Rion Ballroom on Saturday night. The Rochester, NY outfit just released the Act II 7" via Cavity Records.

Low Red Land killed it during their acoustic set at Flaco's on Friday night as part of The Fest 8, stopping people walking by outside in their tracks.

Good Luck.
