This week's music feature is on the Grammy winning classical music choir the Phoenix Chorale. Steve Jansen tells us why they're awesome, and why they're turning to facebook for the hope of a financial bailout.

We also have a "Where are they now?" style follow up on local punk rockers Die Ignorant, who famously staged a car wash at Applebee's to fund their tour. Was their car wash to raise money for their tour a success?

And of course, we've got show previews for Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Sugarland, Coheed and Cambria, Flyleaf, and A Day to Remember.
