ANNOUNCING: RETURN OF THE HOOTENANNY!!!

YUSSS! ALL HAIL! NEW KING IN TOWN! YUSSS! We had such a good time putting on the Hootenany! YOU had such a good time going to the first Hootenanny (those of you who could get in, that is)! THE BANDS had such a good time playing the Hootenanny! Look at that! That's three good times in three sentences! YOU KNOW WE MUST DO IT AGAIN! Therefore, The Skyline Network, is annihilated to announce HOOTENANNY II: TWOTENANNY!

Ladies and Gentleman, Mark your calendars: July 26th is your next date with destiny.

For those that don't remember or, sadly, were not aware, the Hootenanny had some of Houston's finest playing sets as some of their favorite bands. That first go-around packed the Mink's backroom beyond capacity with Indian Jewelry as Depeche Mode, Awesome! as Weezer, Blades as Foo Fighters, The Mathletes as the Talking Heads, Something Fierce as The Clash, The Young Mammals as the Pixies, The Jonx as Nomeansno, Panic in Detroit as Jawbox, Papermoons as Pedro the Lion and John Sears as Sam Cooke. LOOK AT THAT LINEUP, LOOK!

The Skyline Network's crack A&R attorneys are, at this very moment, in negotiations to bring some of the 713's TOP TALENT back to the Backroom, so keep it tuned here for announcements on bands. But in the meantime, we have the DOUBLEMINT pleasure of being able to also announce, tentatively, two of the scheduled acts. Ladies and Gentlemen, put on a helmet, because you're about to freak out and run into a wall without putting your hands up:

The Ka-Nives as The Lemonheads
Flowers to Hide as The Cure

omg omg omg omg omg omg. More to follow.
