The members of Los Angeles rock group Carney [ tickets ], who released their debut EP, "Nothing Without You," in May, wrote and video blogged about their experiences at San Francisco's Outside Lands [ tickets ] Music & Arts Festival for LiveDaily. Here's the band's final report.

Hello!

So after 3 straight days of complete madness, 986 miles of driving with only 1 full night's sleep to speak of among the 4 of us, we made it back home in one piece! But we're straight back to work... recording a brand new track for the debut CARNEY record slated for release in early '09! We had a blast documenting our excursion to and through the first annual Outside Lands Festival, in which we had the distinct honor of being the very first band to perform!

We'd like to thank all of you who've been following our every move these past few days, and hope that you won't be strangers from here on out :) And if you're ever in Los Angeles on a Wednesday night, you can come find us at the historic Troubadour, where we kick off our residency on Wednesday, September 3rd!

It's been a pleasure sharing our experiences with you this week.

We'll leave you with this bit of wisdom:
Find what it is that you love... and do it as if nothing else in this world matters... And you'll never have to work a day in your life.

We hope that makes sense to someone out there! Keep on Rockin' in the free world! And if you live in China... well... keep on rockin' anyway!

From all of us at CARNEY, Goodnight and Good luck.
