BEN KWELLER "If you don't care, I don't care,"
Texas-bred Kweller said, holding a bloody towel to his bloody nose
that plagued him during an afternoon set. "I'll fucking bleed to
death for you!" Now that's what we call rock & roll! [See
the full story in our Rock Blog.] Kweller tried to keep it
going by playing the heavier tune "This Is War," after which he
blasted though three more songs before festival paramedics and
management insisted he call it quits and whisked him away to the
hospital. "They like to keep these tour buses really dry and really
fucking cold, " Kweller said, trying to explain the nosebleed. "A
hot bus is a sick bus, so it's dry as hell on there."
