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.
During this week’s O Music Awards, some performers will simply be opening for The Flaming Lips as they plow toward their goal of breaking the Guinness World Record for the most live concerts in 24 hours (multiple city). And some performers, like Grace Potter of Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, will be buckling in for the ride — and making sure we break that record.
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.
