Aight, aight, so twist our arm.
It always sucks when brands/people/companies who have done things of which you don’t approve do other things that cast an opposite light. Or maybe it’s good and you just want to keep not liking them. Well either way, Urban Outfitters and Toyota (Yaris) both (both whom have done things to put make it harder not easier for indie culture) are doing something worth wild.
They have teamed up with Freeyrradio to bring live events at all of their stores. Some of the hottest bands you’ve never heard on those commercial stations will be playing. Here’s the line up and enjoy.

Someone had to do it! We love you Alanis…
Ok people, we’re done with the boxes. I took my box maker and trashed it today. I didn’t even really know that it was working so well until I saw this guys face, didn’t think much and then heard his music. This kinda of music makes you remember to just know what good music sounds like so when you hear you you can. Say Word!

We don’t usually do this to much but this time it was absolutely necessary! You don’t want to miss this.
Ok, so no really mo money, but mo tickets to save you money fo sho! We heard that some of you wanted to go to that Lyrics Born, Who Cares show and so we decided to hook it up. You’re gonna have to work for it though. We’re going to do this one radio station style. We’re putting out our 17th issue soon so the 17th person to sign up on the email list (home page) gets the tickets. Woooooooooooooooooooord!
