I had the misfortune of being nowhere near NYC during the last weekend when the annual NYC Popfest was held there. Apparently it was a blast. Bill Pearis has written some interesting reviews of the shows over here, and I nicked a few MP3 files from him, a small selection of the bands playing there.The Besties - Zombie Song
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - This Love is Fucking Right
Pants Yell! - Shoreham Kent
Cats on Fire - Higher Ground
From Bubblegum to Sky - I Always Fall Apart
Mahogany - The Wiew From The People Wall
My Teenage Stride - Theme from Teenage Suicide (pictured)
Tullycraft - The Neutron
Oh! Custer - Post
There are more MP3s over on Sound Bites. I sure hope to be there next year, not least because New York is a wonderful city to begin with, me thinks.
Additionally, Jennifer has a few videos of Cats on Fire and My Teenage Stride performing at NYC Popfest over at http://www.youtube.com/absolutelywilde.
More vids:
Tullycraft perform "Twee" and "Every Little Thing".
Cats on Fire perform "Mesmer and Reason"
I took numerous videos of Cats on Fire's two performances at NYC Popfest, as well as My Teenage Stride. (Would have taken more, but I filled up my memory card!)
You can check them out on YouTube -

I don't believe that From Bubblegum To Sky is still going... I love them since the March Records Compilation "International Pop Style"
From Bubblegum to Sky have a new record and played tonight in Brooklyn... didn't see it but I know it happened.
i saw from bubblegum to sky play with tullycraft in dc last weekend. i didn’t think too much of them. compared to the super pop powers of tullycraft they seemed weak and frail.
