What an awesome Rumble this week (see some photos below and some more here)! Thanks to everyone for coming out, and to The Hundred Days for their mini-set, and of course to guest DJ Omar from Popscene/Leisure, who, as usual, ruled the decks.

Couple of ticket giveaways today -- the first is for tonight's show at 12 Galaxies featuring Oranger, the second will be for the next BAGeL Radio Presents... event featuring Handsome Furs.

New music today featured today during "480 Minutes" will include songs by The Notwist (Munich, Germany), The Silver State (Brooklyn via Vegas), Prolyphic and Reanimator (Providence, RI), Constantines Toronto, Canada), French Kicks (New York, NY), Les Blanks (Los Angeles, CA), Miniature Tigers (Phoenix, AZ), Jim Noir (Manchester, UK), American Princes (Little Rock, AK), Dark Meat (Athens, GA), Someone Still Loves You, Boris Yeltsin (Springfield, MO.) and Lyrics Born (Berkeley, CA).

Please tune in to "480 Minutes" today and every Friday. The show runs live from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific Time, then is rebroadcast starting at 7 p.m., then twice more on Saturday. On Saturday night at midnight we return to regular BAGeL Radio programming.
