The Dougie

Our friends at SOHH.com have launched The Dougie, a hip-hop community site. The site features many of the latest music videos, photos, blogs, and should become as powerful as the SOHH Forums as a place for hip-hop life, style and commentary. The Dougie, like Doug E. Fresh, "My Dougie" means your style or swagger, so check out the site and post your Dougie.

Say Anything and Katy Perry to Attend Warped Tour After Parties ... at Denny's!

Five cities along the 2008 Warped Tour will host after parties at a local Denny's restaurant. Katy Perry and Say Anything will be in attendance each night, with a host of other bands rotating as part of the Denny's All Nighter program. [cut=More details.]

The festivities will begin at 10 p.m. on all five nights and will run until midnight (unless you care to host the after-after party somewhere else). Share a bucket of fries with [Say Anything singer] Max Bemis or help [We The Kings singer] Travis Clark finish his chocolate shake.

Warped Tour After Parties at Denny's:

7.14: Charlotte, NC (with Say Anything, Katy Perry, Forever the Sickest Kids, From First to Last, Maylene and the Sons of Disaster)
7.19: Toronto, ON (with Say Anything, Katy Perry, We The Kings)
7.29: Pittsburgh, PA (with Say Anything, Katy Perry, We The Kings, The Briggs)
7.31: Noblesville, IN (with Say Anything, Katy Perry)
8.13: Fresno, CA (with Say Anything, Katy Perry, We The Kings, The Briggs)

Visit the Denny's All Nighter Blog to RSVP for the Denny's All Nighter event. Bring your appetite and a sharpie for autographs. :)

Denny's All Nighter Blog offers music fans the chance to vote for bands that they feel deserve a Denny's sponsorship, which includes free food between the hours of 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. at any of the restaurant chain's locations. Every two months, you can vote between six new bands and you can submit your own musical project for a possible sponsorship as well!

Recently, Taking Back Sunday created their own signature dish for Denny's (due out in August) for the food chain's new "Rock Star Menus" program. Plain White T's, The All-American Rejects and Eagles of Death Metal will be unleashing their finest cuisines in the near future.

Do you think Warped Tour after parties at Denny's is a brilliant idea or a boring one?
