After a little bit of a delay with credentials and whatnot, we are setup backstage at Edgefest out in Queen Creek and doing the liveblogging thing. White boy rapper Mickey Avalon is finishing up his set and UK rockers The Kooks are getting ready to go on stage.

Some general notes:

— If you’re driving down Ellsworth Road to get here, watch out for the speed camera van setup a couple miles south of Highway 60 on the right side of the road.

— The Dirty’s Nik Richie’s in the house doing the liveblogging thing and posting his usual brand of embassing and revealing photos to his site. So watch your shit, yo, unless you wanna see your drunk ass up on The Dirty.

More to come shortly…
