In December 2005, the Feds released their self-titled CD - the first since 2003's From Hell To Breakfast, which was never officially released because of a record label dispute. Now the band doesn't have to sell burned copies from the back of their van.
In 2004, the Feds won the local, regional and national categories of the Rolling Rock Town Fair Five competition, which featured more than 4,000 bands. That earned them a performance in front of 30,000 in Latrobe, Pa., sharing the stage with Velvet Revolver, Staind, Disturbed, Hoobastank, Finch and Sevendust. After returning to Texas for a Dallas date of the Warped Tour, The Feds beat out more than 8,000 bands from across America in the Ernie Ball battle of the bands. They won $25,000 in merchandise and a spot on the 2005 Warped Tour.

Vans Warped Tour 2009 Warped just began -- Dallas is the fifth stop -- so Bad Religion, NOFX et al will still be fresh. This year, they've got fewer stages and longer sets (40 minutes instead of 30). Get there early for Colorado duo 3OH!3 and Brit punkers Gallows (pictured, credit Jay West). More info
