For the third time in less than a year, nu-metal/rock/rap powerhouse Linkin Park, blew through Los Angeles. Bringing their now familiar sound to the sold-out Staples Center, co-frontmen Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda screamed, sang and rapped their way through a blistering hour and a half set.

The use of sonar by the Navy off the shores of Southern California has prompted vehement opposition by animal rights and environmental groups, and earlier this year a court order put in place restrictions on the practice. However, reports that a dolphin's death in late January on the island of San Nicolas might be linked to the Navy's use of sonar in a training exercise has once again brought the issue into the spotlight.

A vast knowledge of fine wine and great Italian food are not a prerequisite for visiting Talia's Restaurant & Bar in Manhattan Beach, because you could pick blindly from the menu and whatever arrived would be delicious. It's "one of those" kinda places.

So we heard that at 12:00 a.m. EST, 9:00 p.m. PST (or LA time for those of us who could give a crap about the rest of the West Coast) tonight, those sexy boys at Current TV, Max Lugavere and Jason Silva, will be hosting the exclusive (yes, exclusive) US broadcast of Radiohead playing In Rainbows. In its entirety. Sexy, exclusive, entirety. After the broadcast, M and J will be hosting a very special Best of Current TV hour.

This past weekend, in the steep hills of Echo Park, there was a Christmas party extravaganza complete with booze, baseball players and bad taste. Described as "Your Parent's Christmas Party," the holiday invite explained that one must "come dressed in what your parent's once thought was their holiday best," because after all, "This is how we do it in 92." With that in mind, I reluctantly put on one of the fugliest xmas sweatshirts I could find and polished enough bottles of champagne and wine to appropriately begin celebrating the holiday season.

Happy Halloween Britney! Her pink leopard print leotard is amazing. Exactly what I would be doing after I lost custody of my kids- partying at Heidi Klum's Halloween party - Daily News

The annual Street (Not so much anymore) Scene down in San Diego went of last weekend, boasting an impressive lineup of , The Killers, Muse, Arctic Monkeys, Spoon, TI, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Infected Mushroom and many many more. Lots and Lots and Lots O Pics......

It has been quite some time since we have seen the Yeah Yeah Yeahs in LA. Last night's show at the beautiful Mayan Theatre downtown was a reminder of why we need to see this band here more often. Full Review and Lots O' Pics of Karen O. and the boys after the jump......

I know that no matter what I say about these two bands and this show I will get blasted. I think it is kind of lame to have to defend why one likes band A or band B it is after all music and it can effect you in ways that it doesn't others. While I am not a diehard for either of these two groups I do appreciate what they bring to the...

If you have watched any primetime television or new release movies you have most likely heard the bombastic sounds of Snow Patrol. In the past year alone the Scottish group has been featured in more than ten films and television shows; their single "Chasing Cars" was featured on the ABC show Grey's Anatomy not once, not twice, but three times. They are also Zach Braff-approved, with songs on both Garden State and The Last Kiss.

This thing is named Kabluey. This costume is impossible to see out of, which made things kind of interesting.

Either he learned a few tricks from the Invisible Woman or the Silver Surfer was swiped from out in front of the Cinerama Dome at the Arclight.

In what was probably the least gross competitive eating event I have ever seen, James Donohue destroyed the rest of the field at this morning’s CHiPs DVD Release/Donut-Eating Contest. Donohue inhaled 18 donuts before anyone else could finish as many as a dozen (and I’m talking full-sized glazed donuts, too, not the tiny, little powdered sugar motherscratchers.) CHiPs star, Erik Estrada, was on-hand to referee the whole affair but his services were barely needed...

Over their three years or so of existence in the music realm, the Arcade Fire have collected much praise and hyperbole for their albums, Funeral and this year's superb release Neon Bible. This praise and adoration is rightly deserved, as both albums are amazing, genre defying collections of music that are unlike anything out today. But it is only when you see the band live that these claims can be confirmed. Playing the first of two nights at the Greek Theatre, the Arcade Fire furthered their claim to the new indie-cum-mainstream darlings and proved that the hype of the past 3 years is not only just but deserved.

They look like they just won the talent show, and they sound like something your grandmother would have liked. Old timey strings and brass arrangements mashed up with Talking Heads sensibilities mixed with a little something called originality and you begin to scratch the surface of the Arcade Fire. Playing an equal assortment of new faves from the recently-released Neon Bible to the old hits off 2004's Funeral, the 9-piece band of multi-instrumentalists from...

We'll go ahead and use the obvious line here, because it's apt: the Stars were out on Tuesday night at The Roxy. While many were at The Roxy to see headliner Joseph Arthur, we were all hopped up to see our favorite not-yet-but-soon-to-be-big band that we saw a few years ago in Seattle and haven't been able to stop talking about since. The Stars of Track and Field woo you with their melodies, both...

There's a brush fire in Griffith Park. KNBC is reporting that 80 members of a ground crew responded to a brush fire in the hills above Griffith Park at about 1:30 p.m. today. The fire is located in a difficult-to-access area between Roosevelt Golf Course and the 5 Freeway on the east end of the park. Firefighters are also battling high temperatures, winds and low humidity
