Oh! Holy night of fun at basilica (http://www.startribune.com/entertainment/music/98153274.html?elr=KArksD:aDyaEP:kD:aUt:aDyaEP:kD:a UiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUU) ....... ( 4 nice photos )

Among the salacious moments Friday were Weezer's choice of an opening song, "Hash Pipe," and wow-inducing young singer Grace Potter's choice of a cover tune, "White Rabbit" (Jefferson Airplane's LSD anthem).

"It's cool the church lets a bunch of rock musicians on its property to create mayhem," Potter said.


Basilica Block Party mini-reviews (Night One) (http://www.startribune.com/entertainment/blogs/98156119.html?elr=KArksD:aDyaEP:kD:aUt:aDyaEP:kD:a UiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUU)

At the smaller M&Ms churchside stage, fans were much more attentive listening to the less commercial/airplayed artists Spoon, Grace Potter and Rogue Valley.

Star-making performance: Vermont rock howler Grace Potter, 26, turned a few people off with her far-reaching, powerhouse, Janis-meets-Alanis voice, and indeed a few times it seemed like she was doing vocal acrobats just to do them. But mostly she turned heads. Some of her best singing came when she slowed down and played organ for the mellower, soul-stirring
