Want another festival? Here’s four top local acts – Whiskey Shivers, Holy Wave, Moonlight Towers, and Black Tabs – all shot at the ND and each with a live performance clip that will be fleshed out over the next month with individual video showcases.

San Francisco native Raoul Hernandez crossed the border into Texas on July 2, 1992, and began writing about music for the Chronicle that fall, debuting with an album review of Keith Richards’ Main Offender. By virtue of local show previews – first “Recommendeds,” now calendar picks – his writing’s appeared in almost every issue since 1993.
