If I had my druthers, I'd probably visit Summerfest two or three times, opting for quality over quantity. This year, I went six days, and each was for work. I'm not exactly complaining, but Summerfest burned me out this year.

Spill perfects the art of power pop
Together since 1997, Milwaukee's Spill has taken its act on the road to destinations such as L.A.'s International Pop Overthrow and Toronto's North by Northwest music festivals. With a following that is growing to national dimensions, these guys remain focused more on the music than the stardom.
