A blast from the recent past
My sister and I have a joke that she's the hippie and I'm the punk of the family (or I have this joke, and she doesn't get mad when I say it); she's partial to music with bongos in it, and I'm partial to bands that have a lead screamer, but there is some crossover in our musical tastes.

But they also have a lot of other great tunes (and a couple jammy duds). And, although they broke up three years ago, the members are still very active in the music scene. Here's where this post gets relevant. Chad Urmston is now in a band called State Radio, and they're playing Bowery Ballroom this Friday. AND! Dispatch is reuniting for a special fundraiser for Zimbabwe this summer (July 13-15 at Madison Square Garden). Learn more, and stream tunes from all of their albums here.
