While All Points West’s future is not looking too bright (this year at least), there are a couple new festies on the radar for this summer.  Nateva Music & Camping Festival will be held July 2 - 4 at the beautiful 100-acre Oxford Fairgrounds, 45 minutes from Portland, Maine.  Artists include Furthur, The Flaming Lips. Lotus, Zappa Plays Zappa, Keller Williams The Derek Trucks & Susan Tedeschi Band, Moonalice and more additions coming soon. Hangout Fest Next up is the North Coast Music Festival to be held Labor Day weekend, September 3 - 5, in Chicago’s Union Park.  No artists have been announced yet, but the organizers say the fest will feature “the world’s greatest electronic and rock & roll artists. Chicago-based prog rock jamband Umphrey’s McGee covered Phoenix’s “Lisztomania” at their February 25 show at Nokia Theatre in New York.  Thomas Mars’ vocal prowess is quite evident, but it was a good effort overall. The Disco Biscuits had a little fun with the pre-order of their forthcoming album, Planet Anthem, due out on 3/16.  Fans could order signed copies of the album, along with 32 combo options that included tickets to their CD release party at Theatre of the Living Arts in Philly, guitar/bass/drum/keyboard lessons with a band member, shots of Jameson with Magner, tennis vs. Barber, writing the band’s setlist for a night, party at your house featuring the Biscuits (for a mere $25k)…and we even got an indirect shout out with one of the options - interviewing Magner on your dorm room toilet for your school newspaper ($1k).  Ha, happy we got that one for free!  Be sure to check out the album next month. SXSW is right around the corner…stay up-to-date on your RSVP’s with the Austinist’s list of day shows, after parties and more!  Roxwel’s day parties will be announced very soon! Outside of SXSW, there are several good shows coming up this week and next here in Austin.  Check out Dark Star Orchestra at Stubb’s on 3/6, Brothers Past at The Parish on 3/11 and Tea Leaf Green at Stubb’s (indoors) after the Citizen Cope show on 3/12.
