Friday is reserved for the hard stuff -- Scraps Of Life, Split Hoof, Burn Heavy, and Hawg Jaw team up to metal up Room 710 one more time. We’re especially excited about Saturday’s bill -- HUG’s experimental concoctions get the adrenalin flowing at 8 p.m. before 90 minutes sets by Foot Patrol and Pong surely transform the whole place into a dance floor. Foot Patrol are raising funds for their upcoming tour to New York and just this past Saturday, they electrified Scoot Inn with a plethora of covers at their 80's Dance Party.
Finally, on Sunday, Brits Bobby Long and Marcus Foster tinge Room 710’s final hours with a softer, poignant shade to accommodate any tears in the offing. The duo co-wrote “Let Me Sign,” performed by Rob Pattinson and available on the iTunes digital album version of the Twilight soundtrack.
