The time has come. Our bags are packed. Our hearts are steeled. Our eyes are pried — Clockwork Orange-style — open so as not to miss a beat. The O Music Awards — an epic, cross-country, record-breaking roadtrip — kicks off tonight at 7:30 p.m. EST in Memphis, Tennessee, and we’re not stopping until we reach New Orleans, Louisiana, in 24 action-packed hours.
Take this as your official kick-in-the-a$$ reminder: The O Music Awards will be hitting the Web on June 27th at 7:30 p.m. EST, and we’re not stopping until June 28th, 24 hours later! Clear your calendars kids — nothing that’s transpiring on your average Wednesday/Thursday will be half as exciting as this mess.
The O Music Awards is mere days away, so in preparation for the big event, we’ve been chatting with the various and sundry performers who will be sharing the bill with The Flaming Lips as they motor toward their goal of breaking the Guinness World Record for the most live concerts in 24 Hours (multiple city). Last week, we chatted up Louisiana’s own Hunter Hayes, and today we touch proverbial base with another LA resident and OMA performer: the band GIVERS.
If you were stoked about the news that The Flaming Lips will be playing 8 shows during the O Music Awards — breaking the Guinness World Record for the most live shows in 24 hours (multiple city) — get ready to have a full-on pleasure heart attack. We have a whole new passel of performers to announce today, as well as where you can get tickets to take in every single eclectic performance.
