Me.dium is required to participate in all RockMe. events! Get Me.dium here!
Join us today, Wednesday, October 24 at RockMe.dium.com at 4PM EST / 1PM PST to kick it online with Standfast!
Joining us from Sweden, Patrick and Suzanne have recently released their second album, Beneath & Beyond.
Have a listen to it here.
If you're not familiar with our RockMe. Sessions then read on.
At our RockMe. Sessions we bring in a various kick-ass artists and bands to lead their fans and Me.dium users around the interweb on a virtual tour of their music.
Never before have bands and fans been able to share such a unique music experience.
By participating in the RockMe. Sessions, you will be part of a revolution in digital culture and music which ultimately enables newer, stronger, and more personal relationships between bands and fans.
During RockMe., fans are given the opportunity to speak directly with their favorite musicians (or musicians they have yet to discover), interact online and ask questions.
Standfast is not the first band to embrace this platform. Rose Hill Drive, a Boulder, CO-based rock band, recently chosen by Rolling Stone magazine as one of the "Ten Artists to Watch in 2007,” hosted the inaugural week of RockMe. and closed the first online music festival with a live streaming concert. With more bands to come on board, including Lol Tolhurst (The Cure), Perpetual Groove, Gosling, Todd Fancey (New Pornographers) & many others, RockMe.dium.com is quickly becoming the leading rock venue of what most people prefer to call....the Interweb.
How to Participate: Visit RockMe.dium.com and tune in by logging into Me.dium at 2pm MST today, Wednesday October 24, 2007. Be sure to join the official chat found on the main shout-out board in your Me.dium browser.

Lol Tolhurst is hosting today's RockMe. Session! Lol Tolhurst right! That's pretty insane! Ha! Join us today, Wednesday, October 17 at RockMe.dium.com at 4PM EST / 1PM PST to kick it online with Lol Tolhurst!
Lol is a rock legend! Check out his most recent bio:
"Lol Tolhurst and Robert Smith would start on a journey that would take them to the very pinnacle of musical success. In adolescence, Lol and Robert discovered that they shared a similar vision to form a group like the ones that influenced them. This simple inspiration would create one of the most influential, critically acclaimed and commercially successful groups of modern times: The Cure. From 1978 onwards, Lol and The Cure would chart an impressive selection of achievements:
- Well over 27 million units sold worldwide
- Extensive touring covering all the continents
- 40 Platinum and Gold plaques in the US, Europe and Japan
- Co-writing many of the group's big hits including "Let's Go To Bed", "The Walk" and "The Caterpillar"
- Over 20 landmark award-winning music videos.
With The Cure's influence on artists growing in greater proportions in recent years, Lol has made major moves in the music industry. He dove back into the studio in 2002 with his new project: Levinhurst. A suave, exotic group comprised of Lol's keyboards, beats, and sonic landscaping against the stirring vocals of Cindy Levinson, the group met critical acclaim with their 2004 debut Perfect Life. It covered a much wider musical range than most electro artists attempt to fill, and please Cure fans and electronic music junkies alike."http://levinhurst.com/biography.html

For those of you who aren't familiar with them, the RockMe. Sessions were born from RockMe. – the first-of-it’s kind five-day online Music Festival. RockMe. brought together five kick-ass bands to meet their fans on Me.dium.
Artists like Dinosaur Jr., Rose Hill Drive, The Fiery Furnaces, Jeffrey Lewis, Gosling, The Willowz, Stanton Moore, The New Pornographer’s, New Monsoon and Haulo, took their fans on “virtual tours” across the web, backstage and behind the scenes – to their MySpace pages, YouTube Videos, to listen to new releases on Rhapsody, and to people and places they thought were cool. It was a total riot.
In addition to the artists, companies like Rhapsody, Vox (Six Apart), Pandora and Ustream.TV showed huge support as primary partners.
Excitement around Rockme., and how Me.dium is changing the face of discovering music online, hit the front page of Social News site Digg. RockMe. sent so many internet surfers to WordPress blogs about music that they had to bolster the server farm. And so many RockMe. users gathered around the Gibson Guitars’ website to check out a sexy bass, they crashed Gibson’s site.
In short, RockMe. was the world’s first online mosh pit. And it rocked.
Now Me.dium presents The RockMe. Sessions – a RockMe. mini me – a dose of musical mayhem bringing fans and bands together online.
These next two weeks are going to be insane!
Hey guys. If you're not on Me.dium right now, then you're missing your chance to kick with Jake Sproul, of Rose Hill Drive. So get on Me.dium!

I've got it bad man! I'm going through RockMe. withdrawal. My last fix was Saturday night, and come Sunday morning I started getting the sweats and the shakes - it's no good. I've been struggling to find a reason to go on.
Are you experiencing similar symptoms of RockMe. withdrawal? Do you wake up in the morning and just feel dead inside? It's tough to go back to the plain, old, regular daily life after you've had it all and experienced a taste of RockMe. heaven.
Well you don't have to go on living like that anymore! We can take away all of your pain and give you the RockMe. fix you've contemplated stealing and killing for.
Here at the Me.dium labs, we've concocted a RockMe. methadone so to speak. It's called the RockMe. Sessions, and will be available to Me.dium users and RockMe. participants starting tomorrow, Wednesday, Sept. 26 at 4PM EST / 1PM PST.
Taking place daily, the RockMe. Sessions are your chance to interact online with a different musician, band or artist! Each RockMe. Session will begin at RockMe.dium.com Mon-Fri at 4PM EST / 1PM PST. Be sure to join the chat on the main shout-out board in your Me.dium sidebar.
