One Philly-based music maven's memories of this year's XPoNential Music Fest: http://onenoteahead. blogspot. com/2008/07/xponential-value. html

Quote:
"Radio personalities seated behind fences, shouting excitedly into microphones. The sounds of rock, soul, blues, folk, hip-hop, and alternative pop filling the air. A sensitive, delicate-voiced singer/songwriter......rapping. What else could it possibly be but the 2008 XPoNential Music Festival[...]"
