Just announced via Travis Clark's Twitter account, the Promise The Stars video has been posted on MTV.com in the new videos section of the website. We spoke with Travis backstage at the Vans Warped Tour and the only footage we got was of Travis talking about this video and how the song with Demi Lovato, We'll Be A Dream came about. The video has a hilarious concept that goes along with a great song. 

The entire Dad's Car Radio family is piling into the wood paneled station wagon and heading up to Wrightsville, PA for an afternoon at the Moondancer Vineyards Folk Festival.

A new experiment using HTML has incorporated music into it's demonstrations. In this Google Chrome only music video, you enter the street in which you grew up on and it will use multiple browsers opening and closing as the video plays showing actual footage of your home. Using Arcade Fire's new song you'll be able to see a kid running away from their home in the suburbs, a feeling most of us have felt at some point or another. The screen-cap above shows how complex the presentation can get, including street-view and arial view of my home. You can also write a message to yourself from when you were younger and if you give permission your message could end up on the huge screens during an Arcade Fire concert. Just click the link above to get started.

As I've said many times before, Warped Tour is a huge event where I was fortunate enough to be able to spend time backstage and conduct multiple interviews with bands of all different genres. Some interviews I had been planning on for weeks, and others happened on the spot. While taking a break in a hammock and waiting for my next interview a guy with disheveled black hair and a cigarette came over and sat next to me and the girl I was sitting with, also there for press. It didn't take long for me to realize he was Ian from the band Hot Chelle Rae, and after a short conversation we decided to kill two birds with one stone and knock out another improvised interview while still sitting and relaxing in the hammock. They were some of the nicest guys on tour and if you will excuse the looseness of the improvised interview I highly suggest you check out the music of Hot Chelle Rae.

Tonight has been a very exciting and slightly frustrating night for those special All Time Low Hustlers out there. The dates for the My Small Package tour were said to be released tonight at midnight, but the release was delayed due to the fact that The Hustler Club website crashed from so many visitors. Not only that but the popular blogging site Tumblr also experienced a delay due to people constantly visiting and refreshing the site. An admin sent out a message telling people to leave the site for a moment so the dates could finally be posted. The tour will include bands A Rocket To The Moon and City comma State. Presale begins this Wednesday September first but only for those who are members of the fan club. Keep your eyes peeled if you want to go to the show, the band is going back to their roots and only playing small venues, such as the Baltimore Recher Theatre where All Time Low got their start. So far it's taken over two and a half hours to get the site back up and get the dates onto the internet to those loyal anxious fans. BUT only half the dates are currently out and the rest will be out shortly. There are 24 dates in all.
