They're the best band you'll see all summer. Yes, even better than Rage Against the Machine. Pound-for-pound Arcade Fire has more songs, better songs, and you can't call it comeback. Plus the Canadians will be playing two nights in a venue in a park that will still smell of the remnants of an actual fire. Unless Rage has a stage that looks like a 1970s super computer, another point must be awarded to the Arcade Fire who have many more vids that you can see after the jump.

Leah Muse is a young wife whose husband just happens to be an up-and-coming rock star, signed to Orange County's Northern Records. The band, Quiet Company is on their summer tour and we were lucky enough to have Leah write about what it's like being the only girl in a van full of bearded rockers. Some of you ladies that have hopes of dating a rockstar, are currently dating a rockstar, even married a...

We know we listed them a few posts below, but this is a band who bears repeating... and hyping. If you recall, in March we went to SXSW in Austin and had a little battle of the bands of sorts. LAist got a few bands from LA, and we invited some bands from Austin to play at the LAist SXSW party. We had never heard of Quiet Company, and quite frankly, their name didn't...

Welcome SXSW attendees visiting LAist for various reasons. Welcome to our site! Please look around and dig through the archives and make yourself at home, and yes, feel free to subscribe to our feed, etc. Yes, it's true, tonight we are having a party at the infamous Room 710 at 710 Red River across the street from The Red Eye Fly and Stubb's. LAist are big fans of Room 710, and only because of...

It was a toss-up for the headline of this story. I was saying it should be "Golden AX Wins the LAist Rock at SXSW Contest", but the marketing team kept saying, "Look at the poster, you drunken fool! That's not Golden AX. That's Rocket! And look at the picture on this post! Rocket! Plus you haven't told anyone that LAist is not only going to represent at the biggest film / music / Interweb...

SXSW is right around the corner, in fact LAist will be there in less than a week. We are currently holding a contest to let a local band play at SXSW, and now we want to let someone local make our concert poster. Coincidentally, we also have 10 pairs of tickets to see the outrageously wonderful Macy Gray on Thursday, March 8th. But not just any old Macy Gray show (as if there was...

At LAist we've had some pretty cool contests over the year. We have given away box seats to the 'Bowl (including parking and picnic baskets), we gave away New Year's Eve tickets to see the Flaming Lips and Gnarls Barkley, we gave away tickets to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers play at the Roxy, and last week we gave away hella cds and one lucky winner will get to see a Luscious Jackson...

Still no word on the future of Bart DeLorenzo's Evidence Room company, but an email on the sadly quiet company mailing list this week recommends two "ER-related offerings": actress Pamela Gordon's poignant last film, The Dogwalker, premiering tonight at the Laemmle Music Hall, and a new novel, The Glass Books Of The Dream Eaters, by ER playwright Gordon Dahlquist (Delirium Palace (2001), Messalina (2003)).
