The national Big Night Out Tour features four mighty chart-busters, yet the recent St. Petersburg date came to a soggy, premature conclusion. Christopher Long and his fellow music fans still got their money’s worth, however, in the form of Alien Ant Farm.

Gavin Hayes sure likes to keep busy. His band Dredg is co-headlining a U.S. tour, then touring Europe and Australia and performing with author Salman Rushdie – all by the end of the year. Tim Wardyn discussed the new album The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion as well as religion and families in this revealing yet intimate interview.

3 Doors Down may have been the headliners for a recent show at Orlando’s Hard Rock Live, but for Christopher Long , Hoobastank owned the stage.
