Wednesday Night Update

In case you didn't know, tonight's Mercury show has not sold any advance tickets and therefore it has not sold out. Get there on the early side if you want to participate in night of solid rock. I forgot to mention Child Ballads will be playing early, which is fronted by Whitney's friend Stewart who was the former lead man of Johnathan Fire Eater. Hopefully I'm right this time.

Late Breaking News. Emphasis on the Late.

First of all, have any of you seen the Z100 Television spot featuring Britney Spears' crotch. My friend David just informed me that it has been around for awhile, but the video's behind her and her silky nighty are new. So they are recycling ad this on the premise that her vagina attacks listeners. They might be on to something. Does Britney have one of those tattoos placed right above her happy patch? Someone should let me know, (C'mon Christian, I know you've seen it).

In less important news, there were several Primaries held yesterday. Kerry took 5 states while Edwards and Clark kept their campaigns alive with wins in South Carolina and Oklahoma respectively.

If you can't get to Indio, you may have another shot at seeing the Pixies. Frank Black lets us know that they plan to tour this year. Your plane ticket to one of these shows may be a bit more expensive than Coachella.

Filter's newest issue brings together the Strokes and Lou Reed. Do you think Lou let Julian shit in his mouth? Nah, I bet those days are over. They probably just made out.

Go figure. Robert and the rest of his crew get set to work on a new record. These guys lay more tracks than a preteen still in diapers.

Some big releases were dropped yesterday. The biggest being the Walkmen's 2nd full-length, Bows and Arrows (reviewed by the A.V. Club here), The Mountain Goats and the Microphones.

The Unicorns keep the PR machine rolling. Here is a brief review of W.W.C.O.H.W.W.G. by Junkmedia. Go buy this record, its really solid.

Jack White claims to have put Elephant on the shelf and will take some R & R before working on a new record prior to the U.K. summer festival circuit.

I didn't know the Exploding Hearts had more tracks on record. I've got to get myself a copy of this 7" before its way to late. R.I.P. E.H.

You can take the punk out of the scene, but you cannot take the punk out of the punk. Johnny gets his mouth washed out with soap for a few curses.

Bowie extends his Reality Tour just a bit longer. Bowie at Jones Beach. Please sir, may I have some more.

This David Berman article is for Noah and Cami. That's it.

Check out the new look of the Stereo Effect. I used to write for these guys, and can be found in the archive... but be mindful, they didn't edit me. Big mistake. Just ask Liz my personal gramma hamma.

Uh Oh! Free Williamsburg starts what might be a train of bad press for the upcoming TVoR full-length debut. If they don't like their own poster boys, who will?

Ok, gotta run. Call me if you want to pregame before the Mercury.
