This and That
- No determined cause of fire at the Georgia Theatre yet. Investigators are working to find out more details. Last night's benefit show at the Melting Point was sold out. Way to go, Athens.
- Paul McCartney to play Atlanta's Piedmont Park August 15th and Dinosaur Jr. to play Atlanta's Variety Playhouse in October. (Coincidentally, it was also just announced that local drummer Kyle Spence, along with bassist Dave Schools, will be J Mascis' Fog for the December ATP Festival in England. And speaking of Dave, someone should buy this. LOL)
- Nice pictures from a recent B-52s show in Portland.
- PopMatters has a fairly lenghty review of Patterson Hood's new solo album, Murdering Oscar (And Other Love Songs), released yesterday. You can stream the album there too. (There's actually quite a few reviews going around right now.)
- Henry Owings of Chunklet is profiled on eyeweekly.
- Interesting tech talk from Panic's FOH Sound Engineer, Chris Rabold, about the mixing of their new live archive release. Sounds like a whole 'nother job.
- Welcome to Dickipedia.
- Rapidshare gets in trouble for hosting copyrighted material, and MySpace is on its way down.
- And because they are awesome, you should know that the Guided by Voices flick, Watch Me Jumpstart, is streaming on Pitchfork all week.
