The band, enjoying its recent success at the hands of The CW (their song "All We Are" was apparently played during a very pivotal moment during an episode of Gossip Girl) has such a big under-age following that The......

Last year's For the Love of Pig Iron benefit show, "PIG FEAT!" was one of the best performances we saw all year. This one-night-only variety show featured drag acts, dancing, music, and the most spirited, competitive, live auction we've ever seen. We knew we'd be back in 2008.
