As we all know The Strokes hate eachother and decided to put out another album so they could all make some more money before they all go bald and run out of trust fund money.
Here are some of them singles so you can bob your head and punk around in New York City like its 2001.
Machu Picchu + Taken For a Fool
ENJOI.
The Strokes have announced that they will be playing the infamous MSG on April 1st.
April Fools? Or are we just the fools for showing up to the Garden for a Strokes concert?
Perhaps LCD Soundsystem is the fool.
Why?
Well, it just so happens that all of the LCD demise thunder will be taken away by a kick-off renual of The Strokes, with their upcoming new release, Angles.
You see the farwell LCD Soundsystem concert is going on at MSG the night before.
Do you guys like “Under the Cover of Darkness”? Kinda feel like its a lazy structured single. But it is veddy veddy nice.

This past weekend I was able to cross-paths with a long lost cuse’ buddy, Sir Phillip Steiger.
The man himself was visiting the big city for the weekend with his mistress, Cami Brown.
The dining plans were set forth and I made my way through some Saturday night traffic to meet up with the old palz and some buddies.
I ended up in Dallas BBQ, feeling more so out of place than a crocidile at an alligator convention. (WHAT A CROC!)
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about diveristy. But when you’re the only white brotha in da club- somethin’s UP.
Balanced out by Dallas sized portions of Margaritas and ribs. When carded for the alcoholic beverages, I simply told the young gent I just had no identification on me at the time. The waiter asked, “Well…how old are you?”
I replied, “Um, 21″.
Then he said, “Alright.”
Moments later I was sipping on my texas-sized, Wild Berry margarita. Like a REAL man.
As the night progressed, we were all over the place…
Ending up in Brooklyn- we aimed for the financial district where Phil’s uncles apartment was.
Sipping on everything from Gin, Beer and White wine we ended up on Bailey’s to top off the night. Enjoying a special view, and talking over Modust Mouse, like most nights with Phil, we ended on a spliff.
NOW. We all just loveeee the grammys dont WE?
What a fantastic representation of the music industry and its popularity.
WHERES THE DUBSTEP!?!?!
Just kidding. But really, how long will it be until we start hearing categories such as:
Best non-vocal, electronic/house remix of a reworked dubstep production/ duo or group
I watched as Bieber performed to the world with what seemed to be a crackling, maturing voice. I attempted to watch the snot-flinger with an open-minded opinion base after my friend Cole had seen his movie, “Never Say Never” (EVER HEARD OF IT?!?!?) and told me she had a new found respect and appreciation for the artist.
BUT MY TWEETS FELT DIFFERNTLY…
As it seemed the young pop sensation was just dancing around, doing as he is told, kneeling before his master Usher after an acoustic-power ballad rendition of “Baby” into, “Never Say Never”.
On another note…
B.o.B : What the fuck is up with that gum to teeth ratio dude?
Eminem: Would it kill you to smile slim? Chill with the pout. We get it. You’re ANGRY. Fuck man…
Gwenyth Paltrow: Stick to Wes Anderson films, Margot Tennanbaum was as good as you’ll do- trust me. BUT if you keep dry humping Cee-lo’s piano then sure…you can stick around.
John Mayer: I wonder if he was pissed that The Tourist flopped at the box-office?
But really dude, come on…you can’t just joc’ Depp’s jay-z like that. Its disrespectful and lazy.
Getting to watch mister Bobby D himself perform on the Grammy stage was honestly the shit.
I hate to hear when people are all critical of the now-scratchy voice, haunted by years of chain-smoking self rolled spliffs and being “too cool”, but at the end of the day- He’s fucking un-real. I’d still say seeing him perform live at Prospect Park in Brooklyn was one of the best concerts and surreal moemnts of my life.
The renditon of Maggies farm with Mumford & Suns + Avett Brothers: B-
Could’ve picked much better and less frequently covered Dylan tunes my grammy friends…

SO- After all the wackness- we move onto a great holiday…Valentines Day.
Who the fuck made this a holiday anyway? Half the people in New York City are either walking around looking like fucking tool’s with a bunch of flowers and chocolates or just mull around, all pissy that no ones around to care about them. I say fuck the holiday.
Do we really need any more stuffed animals being produced that read: “I Wuv U”, while shitting out chocolates and dancing on tables?
Still, my Wild Vibes band-mate/mastermind, Brett Copell sent me an awesome mix to just “swing” round to. So for all you music lovers
check out the band, www.myspace.com/wildvibes
and check out this very nice mix:

This weekend I had quite the special treat of celebrating my man broseph jr/brodudeman, Gavin’s burday in NYC.
Along I gotta to see the ol’ buddz Nicky D and Maxine. (BONER).
In what I can only describe as long awaited anticipation, we saw our canadian brothers, CHROMEO, at Terminal 5.
moments before they went on the crowds began to roar in excitement- “CHRO-ME- OH – WOAHH- OHH!”.
I FELT LIKE I WAS AT A REAL LIVE FUTBOL MATCH!!!
Soon enough- the duo entered onto stage joined by 3 lovely young ladies singing backup.
The show was rage-tastic. Starting early with Buisness Casual’s hit, “Don’t Turn the Lights On” the night was set for a great live performance accompanied by great stage presence. URBODY WAS GOING NUTSY. LADIES WAS DANCIN’. DUDES WAS GRINDIN’.
If you get the chance, don’t pass up seeing the duo at your local sock-hop or JCC.
Jus’ playin’ – you gotta see em somewhere cool like Terminal 5.
Afterwards- we brought the whole gang to Nicky’s sisters place in good ol’ BROOKLYN. Good Times.
APPARENTLY- “BEDFORDS WHERE ITS AT, BRO” – Great Job!
ANYWAYYYY- Earlier that week I got a chance to catch the WAVVES and BEST COAST show at WEBSTER HALL.
Gosh Darnnit- can you believe it was 16+ I had to really grow out the mustache for that to pass. SO SCCURY.
After great debate with Mr. Coppel, WAVVES opened the show. In a California-Post acid, super soaked “wave” of energy the show was kicked off with a great deal of excitement. With his Dave Monk-ish voice, screaming about boredom, stupidity or just “chillen on the beach with his bros” Nathan Williams gave an exilirating performance that could only be followed by indie-rocks 2010 fav, BEST COAST.
YEAH- s0 after my $8 redbull, we shovelled ourselves back into the mosh.
Please tell me how a band does not have a fucking bass player? There was just…so little bass…how could I jam?
Not only was the performance lacking a great deal of “UMFFF” it was also lacking Bethany’s recorded talent apparently. A few boring songs later, I realized that she barely knew how to play a fucking guitar. Let alone work her pedals- actually stopping mid song in confusion when her guitar suddenly dropped out of the song. Not cool.
So HERE WE GO:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GAVIN
CHROMEO WAS FUCKIN SICK
WAVVES- VERY CAT-TASTIC
BEST COAST- SUCK IT.
THANK YOU AND GOODNIGHT.
Recently the infamous PS22 childrens chorus released a new live video performance of the latest indie-rock craaaazzze.
Only this time- I admired the song chosen by the instructor. Don’t get me wrong- i love dem MGMT n’ Phoenix. BUT other than a Beach House selection, this is a first…
I feel bad for these little kids. They don’t even have any clue to the depth of hipsterness in which they are sucumbing to. They never even had a shot…
Anywho- I don’t how I feel about the redention. I personally enjoy my mirror-audienced portrayl of the song much better…or even my in-the-shower cover of the song. Still this is pretty interesting to watch…Enjoy.
and isn’t the teacher just such a creep…
I went to Hebrew school…but this actually still was funny enough to let you all know about.
It’s bout all the crazy shit they couldn’t tell you about…all true…just like god.
and who forget this classic tale…
just to top it all off >>>
“I guess shouting out “Nooo!” just wasn’t clear enough back in the day”
