Blink-182 celebrated the release of its new single, "Up All Night," with a $20 all-in ticket promotion. Unfortunately, there were technical difficulties in some markets and fans weren't able to purchase tickets.

Fans can log on to www.blink182.com and www.livenation.com and get $20 all-in lawn tickets for the show at Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre on Sept. 20 — meaning no hidden fees, no service charges, no extra parking prices.
Interviews / News Charlotte — it’s time to Percolate! Green Velvet (aka Cajmere) brings his live house music show to Dharma Lounge on July 30
Posted By Ray Anderson on Mon, Jul 25, 2011 at 2:34 PM
Even if you know nothing about house music, I guaran-damn-tee you’re familiar with the song “It's Time for the Percolator.” That tune has been the staple of non-house DJ’s house music sets for around 20 years now. It’s one of those songs that house-heads vilify for its popularity and “played out-ness,” yet still jack their bodies to it when it’s played at a party. The man responsible for that anthem, DJ/producer (and former chemical engineering major) Green Velvet (aka Cajmere), will be spinning at Dharma Lounge on July 30 … this is what he had to say for himself:
Creative Loafing: What makes a chemical engineering student decide to quit school and do music?
Green Velvet: Well, my love and passion for music is mainly what won me over. I did the chemical engineering because I was good in math and wanted to make some money. But at the end of the day, I talked to the Lord, and I said that I just want to do what I really love to do … thank God it worked!
