RockMe. Online Music Festival Connects Bands and Fans in Real-Time

                       First Real-Time Online Mosh Pit    What:     RockMe. (http://rockme.dium.com/) is a five-day online music             festival that brings rock bands and industry gurus together to             meet and interact with their fans in a unique online social             setting.              During the five-day virtual festival, bands, artists and music             mavens will lead fans on tours of various Web destinations,             debut new music and unique content and lead discussions on             various music topics.
