New Led Zeppelin Songs????

The idea scares the crap out of me. With a near perfect catalog now, new songs by 3 old men and 1 middle age dude under the name Led Zeppelin doesn't sound like a good idea. About new music, guitarist, Jimmy Page said he would be, "really surprised if there wasn't. We're musicians - as we're playing we'll probably be coming up with all manner of things,"

You can read about it at the BBC.

In related news their music will soon be available digitally. Changing with the times I suppose.

Bon Iver Album Stream

So very upset I missed these guys both today and yesterday at CMJ. There album is pretty good. It's streaming here. According to BV they rocked last night.

CMJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So much music it's almost unbearable. Right now I'm sitting at home, tired, listening to the Black Kids and wondering why I'm not out at the Brooklynvegan showcase tonight. Some other artists I'd like to see are: Yeasayer, the above mentioned Black Kids, Brother Ali, O' Death, Radiohead, etc....................................................................

That's a Yeasayer video down there.



BTW----kidding about Radiohead.

I don't know why I care but...

Hype Machine won't update it's site until 10,000 people are on the page at once. Go to the site and sit there. Right now they have 3449. Not looking good.

Richard Hawley - Serious (live on Jonathon Ross)

I dig this dude.

The Boss and Arcade Fire

I just read on pitchfork that Bruce Springsteen had Arcade Fire play with him on stage in Ontario.

Not a big Boss fan, but my roomate is.

Must have been some excited peeps at this show. As a matter of fact this is the first Bruce show that I'm upset I missed.
