This weekend you have two different options- and staying home isn’t one of them.   With that out of the way you are now set with the VERY difficult task of choosing between heading to Secret Garden Party, or heading to High Voltage- definitely covering two different extremes of the musical spectrum!

Those fantasizing about the days of futures passed should head on over to High Voltage where Judas Priest, Slash, Thin Lizzy, Jethro Tull, and Neurosis will be rocking your wellies off- and that’s just to name a few.  This is a straight up two day retro rock fest to fulfill all of your musical former fantasies in a very modern way.  You can head over HERE to keep updated on all things High Voltage, and be sure to bring proper audio protection- there is a very good chance your ears will explode and we here at bestnewbands.com always advise practicing safe music.

Marcus Foster’s “Shadows of the City”- Secret Garden Party Festured Artist!

For those lusting after a slightly different musical experience it’s mandatory you head straight to secret garden party 2011- do not pass go, do not collect two hundred pounds.  Aside from the insane amount of artists on their never ending line up (which can be seen HERE!) people have been talking (okay, more like raving) about the event since SXSW several months ago, so it’s finally here and as far as I know, it’s promising to not disappoint!  You can head HERE to get the lowdown and deets on the anything but average garden party.
