>> David Byrne launched his own internet radio station this week. It’s pretty groovy. As I expected, there’s Arcade Fire on his playlist. This guy is a sucker for weird, but good, music. Via Boing Boing. Visit his radio station’s site here.

>>A fan of Bishop Allen? Tonight at 7pm EST their lead guitarist, Christian Rudder, will be appearing in the chat room to answer any questions about their work on the new album, Clemintines. I’ll post a link to a transcription of the chat after it’s all said and done.
EDIT: Christian revealed a lot of awesome things in the chat. He gave us a rough tracklist, told us that We Are Scientists will be doing some parts on the album. There’s piano. There’s banjo. It will be a glorious time. Transcript

>>If you’ve been a reader of this blog for a while (and by that I basically mean since I started back in November) then you might remember my run in with Lexington’s policy of music in bars. Basically, you can’t go into a bar if you’re under 21, even if you just want to hear a band. So that kept me from seeing what is possibly the best new band, Arcade Fire. HOWEVER, I plan on having something far better to say than “can I come in?” when Iron and Wine come to The Dame on April 15 with opening band, Band of Horses (name change, nice huh?) On a related note, the demos are coming down of BoH’s website because they’ll be selling their demo EPs on tour. So grab ‘em now or buy ‘em later.

>>Sub Pop may have let me down. They signed the A Frames, who I had not heard of, to release their 3rd album on the Seattle label. I’m not impressed with the A Frame’s one mp3 available on their site, but maybe I’m crazy. You be the judge A Frames - Experiment

>>However, SubPop totally redeemed themselves by updating The Shins’ new tour dates. Wow. Four SubPop bands in a row. I really am a label whore. *sigh*

>>Of Montreal will be playing a session at KEXP on May 27th.

>>Whoa nelly. Here’s a directory that has tons of tv shows. The Daily Show is my favorite, but there’s Leno and The Simpsons and tons of other stuff. I’m pretty sure it’s legal to post those because you could tape it off the boob tube anyways. Check the parent dir for more junk.
