By David Glessner (Posted by mdome) at Classic Rock
...As outdoor temperatures took a freakish plunge toward freezing cold, Classic Rock awoke on Saturday to face another mad quest for parking at Austin’s SXSW. Circling the city for what seemed like eternity, we finally found a distant spot and charged into the chill on our way to see legendary Canadian prog thrashers, Voivod.

By Chasta Piatakovas at Love the Game, Don't Like Puck Bunnies
The NHL launched green initiatives, and more than half the NHL players have taken major steps in becoming environmental leaders—Matt Bradley, the “Captain Planet” of the Washington Capitals, has instituted recycling programs—but increasingly more needs to be done as hockey causing considerable damage to the environment...
