[VIDEO] 30 Rock’s “Kidney Now!” with the Beastie Boys, Elvis Costello, Norah Jones, Sheryl Crow + everyone else

May 15th, 2009 by Matt

Last night’s 30 Rock finale was fantastic. They pretty much tied up all loose ends of plot from this season in the past few episodes, leaving only one: Jack’s new dad needs a kidney. The “Kidney Now!” song is just great. It’s being totally serious about the need for donors, but also gets some meta [...]

Vandaveer has a new video, 7″ and tour dates

May 14th, 2009 by Matt

Last I spoke to Mark-aka-Vandaveer he was still not really sure what he was going to do with his new album Divide & Conquer. Now, just a few short months later he seems to have had a lot of ideas that paid off nicely. First up is the video you see above. “Fistful of Swoon” [...]

The Rosebuds @ the Dame 5.13.09

May 14th, 2009 by Matt

Seeing the Rosebuds play 10 minutes after the Lost finale ended is not something I’d suggest. In addition to having hundreds of questions running through my head, the show was nearly empty — presumably due to peoples’ minds having just been blown. But still, the Rosebuds soldiered on and played a respectable set. At the [...]

[VIDEO] Cass McCombs: “Dreams Come True Girl”

May 13th, 2009 by Matt

Gorilla vs Bear has really been all over the new Cass McCombs record this week — and for good reason. Everything we’ve heard from it so far has been fantastic. This video for “Dream Come True Girl” features cute girls, skateboarding and a live performance by Cass but comes out as about 100x better than [...]

[VIDEO] Lonely Island + the Roots do “I’m On a Boat” live on Fallon

May 13th, 2009 by Matt

Oh man. The Lonely Island are the gift that keep on giving. They regularly make me laugh and Andy and crew pretty much saved SNL these past few years. Now they brought one of their tunes to life for the first time on Jimmy Fallon’s show. Just yesterday I remarked how odd it was that [...]

A confusing mix for tonight’s LOST finale

May 13th, 2009 by Matt

Be on the lookout for fellow Lost watchers today, guys. They’ll be the ones who can’t wait for 9pm to roll around and will check their watch every ten minutes until it does. I decided to curb my enthusiasm for the best show on television with a quick mix to get us all read. It’s [...]

Concert reminder: TV on the Radio in Louisville tonight

May 12th, 2009 by Matt

Still not sure if I’ll be making it up to Louisville for TV on the Radio’s show in Louisville tonight, but I figured I’d remind you all it’s going down. I finally caught them last year and loved their set. Don’t miss out, fellers. TV on the Radio tour dates May 12 – Headliners Music [...]
