DUDE! Gang of Four is getting back together!
One of my favorite pop bands, Versus, will be reuniting for a show at Black Cat on February 25th to benefit Teenbeat Records.
Scottish rockers Idlewild will be releasing their forthcoming fifth album to the world next March.
The awesome Ted Leo has announced that he will be extending his current tour in the company of Matt Pond PA and Mary Timony.
Ex-Jam frontman Paul Weller has been hospitalized due to acute tonsilitis, which prevents him from even speaking, let alone singing.
Greg Graffin, certified genius and frontman for Bad Religion, is writing his PhD dissertation on bad religion.
In weirdness, check out David Byrne covering Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance with Somebody."
And if anyone has a copy of The Arcade Fire covering "This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)"—my favorite Talking Heads song—please let me know.
I'd be tempted to wear one of these out of the house, if I had one.
For the other print/paper people reading this, I'm really into the idea of embossed tin books. Heavy, but durable!
My Christmas list is short this year, and it offers further proof that I am a big dork: iPod Car Vent Mount and (when it is released) the iPod Traveler Case. As always, CDs, DVDs and cash are also accepted.
