Festival Deadpool: All Points West
In case you missed the news last week, there's about zero chance that we'll see another All Points West music festival. Similarly, it doesn't look like AEG will revive its All Points West festival at Liberty State Park in Jersey City, N.J. "We're probably going to kill it," says Phillips of... more

From the Pit | All Points West, Day 3
Waking up in Astoria, Queens, Sunday was a warm beautiful day. Alas the weather forecast told us that it would not last and we were facing one of those days at a festival. You know, those rainy miserable days that make you question how badly you want to... more
Weekly Roundup | Outside Lands Wrapup
Yesterday was the third and final day of the inaugural Outside Lands music festival, and there were a lot of mixed reviews on how well the event went for those in attendance. Personally, I had a lot of fun and I felt that I got to see most everything... more
From the Pit | All Points West, Day 1
I wasn't sure what to expect from Day One of All Points West. I usually hit the smaller Northeast festivals like Mountain Jam and the Vibes. But the setting was without compare. From almost anywhere on the festival grounds, a look to the East gave you a... more
Weekly Roundup | Super Late Edition
The Octopus Project ala iPhone | Photo © Justin Ward Holy cow. I swore to myself that more posts would be up on this here blog today, but the rather spiraly turn of events that would otherwise be referred to as "my day" got a bit out of hand and... more

We've posted a couple rounds of tour dates already this week and the announcements keep coming in, so I thought a little roundup was in order: Dungen just announced fall tour dates in support of their new album, 4.

Girl Talk | Fall 2008 Tour Dates
Mr. Girl Talk himself, Gregg Gillis, just added a few dates to his Feed the Animals supporting tour. Stereogum got some good shots from his set at All Points West, which only made me want to catch him more when he rolls through San Fran. Who's with me? Girl... more
Weekly Roundup
I tried my best to keep up with the reports from All Points West this past weekend, but I also tried to get away from the computer to check the Everyone Orchestra here in SF. Unfortunately my press contact's list must have been a bit borked because I was... more
All Points West 2008 | Day Two in Brief
All Points West is wrapping up today and we're pretty sure that it's going to go off without a hitch (unless, of course, you consider the five-beer limit to be a stopping point altogether). Sam already filed his quick report from day one, and LeeAnn Rossi went to day... more
Radiohead @ All Points West
Radiohead @ All Points West | Photo © Paul Kanterman Paul emailed me this photo early this morning so I could get it posted with the writeup that Sam did late last night following day one of All Points West. I felt like it deserved a post of its own... more
All Points West 2008 | Day One in Brief
On Friday it was pretty clear what the modus operandi of All Points West is: There is Radiohead and there is everybody else. By day, All Points West was a nice festival with some strong sets.

The Secret Machines | 2008 Tour Dates

Pearl Jam | Madison Square Garden, New York 6/25/08
Just what is it about Madison Square Garden that makes it so special? I heard someone pose this question the other day, and it got me thinking. After all, it is just a basketball stadium (and ice rink); there are 29 other NBA stadiums in the country, and... more
Heady Links
There's been a decent amount of news and interesting links rounding out the blogs over the past few days -- not to mention a slew of music festival schedule announcements -- so I thought I'd round it up a bit with a hump day version of Heady Links. In... more
Podcast #060 | Animal Collective
Even though it's been quite a while since we've done a podcast here for the site, I really don't feel any deep need to explain why we've been so silent in this category. The only thing I'm really compelled to add is that you can expect a lot more... more
