Dallas native Brad Skistimas fronts the music project Five Times August, an idea he started in 2001 at 18 years old. Skistimas has turned Five Times August into a widely popular independent music act for today’s college market. The latest album, Fry Street, features five tunes used on MTV’s newest reality phenomenon Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County. With three million viewers tuning into the show every Monday night, Skistimas’ goal is to reach as many of those people as possible.

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
