Although they always have pretty good lineups, San Diego's Street Scene never seems to get our attention. Until now. Today they announced that The Killers, Muse, Panic! at the Disco, Social Distortion, Air, Arctic Monkeys, Too $hort, G. Love, The Editors, The Academy Is..., Clap Your Hands And Say Yeah, Gym Class Heroes, Mute Math, Honeycut, Ozomatli and others will play their two day festival down by the ocean in Del Mar, but what...

If you drive home past the former Tower Records on Sunset you'll see that it looks slightly different. And you'll also see about 200 to 300 people melting in the hot parking lot. Warner Bros. Records has turned the classic record store into Icky Thump Records, which will sell the new White Stripes cd Icky Thump tonight at midnight, about 10 hours earlier than most record stores. But then the band will play Wednesday...

Tennessee is having a quaint little version of Coachella. Called Bonnaroo, the three-day outdoor festival is being headlined by the Police, above, and features the Flaming Lips, Gogol Bordello, Wilco, Wolfmother, and The White Stripes among others. Many of those bands have yet to play and thanks to the AT&T Blue Room you can see some of those heavy hitters live thru your computer. Just go to blueroom.att.com and click Live Now. Or you...

For years he was Howard Stern's head writer. Of course that title pissed off Fred Norris, but that was all part of the multi-layered levels of fun that was the Stern show for a decade. Either due to Jackie asking for too much money or of Jackie not wanting to wake up early every morning (something that Artie Lange is now complaining about), Martling was not resigned and in 2001 Lange was eventually hired...

Can someone please tell Kobe Bryant to shut the hell up? Whether you are a fan of his or not, or think that he is bad for the Lakers right now or not, Laker fans everywhere must certainly be in agreement that we want him to STFU. This morning the LA Times reported that Kobe had a meeting with Laker owner Dr. Jerry Buss yesterday in Spain and asked again to be traded. Jerry...

Michael Moore's new doc, Sicko is getting rave reviews from both Liberals and Conservatives because our health care crisis hits all Americans no matter which party of rich white males they vote for. This week it was discovered that the film had been uploaded onto the Internet and was being downloaded via many popular file-sharing sites. When Moore heard about this he said that it made him happy because he is rich, didn't agree...
