Celebrate Matador’s Birthday On MySpace

Indie rock fans that can’t make it to Matador Record’s 21st birthday party in Las Vegas will be happy to hear that the label has teamed up with MySpace Music to live stream all three days of the festival’s performances.

“Matador At Twenty-One: The Lost Weekend” takes place Oct. 1-3 at the Pearl Concert Theatre at The Palms Desert Resort and Casino and features sets from past and present Matador artists.

The performances will be live-streamed via myspace.com/matador21 and then re-aired the new morning.
