Monolith Music Festival : Lineup Announced

You may or may not have seen this yet...The Hot Freaks! are heading to Red Rocks! This is only the second year for the ever-improving Monolith Music Festival at Red Rock Amphitheatre in Colorado and I think the lineup has taken a big step forward from last year's. The 2008 lineup features a much deeper group of great bands that The Hot Freaks! played a part in assembling. We didn't do it all, but Monolith came to us and we lended an excited hand.
