"Oh my god," I thought. "Nada Surf is here." After 12 years of not seeing each other, my very first crush is now standing outside of my hotel room. I look at the door and try to settle the butterflies that have suddenly appeared. I know what is going to happen, but still I haven’t seen Surf for over a decade, and the last I heard was that Surf released an album called Lucky earlier this year on Barsuk. So, of course, I am nervous.
I turn down the TV and get off the bed where I was sitting and walk over to the door. I look out the peephole and see Nada Surf standing there in the hall, casually dressed in a tight blouse and jeans, hair pulled back. I open the door and we gaze at each other for a second.
"Hi," I say.
"Hello."
"Come on in," I say, opening the door and motioning for Surf to enter. Surf smiles and walks by as I catch a whiff of perfume. I close my eyes while it fills my nose with a beautiful aroma. This is finally the night I’ve been waiting for, the night that will truly be one for the books.
"Can I take a look at your bedroom?" Surf asks.
Suddenly, blood romantically rushes down to my junk, and I’m ready to bone till the break of dawn.

Alas, youthful fans of acid house who understand the significance of Boy George! Since denied a U.S. visa, Boy George recently announced the cancellation of his North American tour this summer.
The tour included an initial performance on The Today Show and a concert for the NY Department of Sanitation Workers at their Family Day in August. (Re: That time The Boy was in trouble with The Law for drugs and had garbage duty.)
The moral of the story? Sanitation workers: Rather than wait for rescheduled dates coming in winter... 2009, grab some tix to BG’s South American tour in September or in Great Britain this October.
The deep-seated moral of the story? The United States ruins everything. Federally-funded Zunes for all!
This is too easy. Usually, I’m a reach-for-the-stars kinda gal, but when a bit of news reads exactly like a practical joke, I can’t pass it up. So, you know who Hall and Oates are, and how they’re a quintessential example of the ’80s and big hair, yada yada. And, of course, you must also be aware of John Oates’ now-defunct mustache, which when around certainly gave Tom Selleck’s a run for its money. But wait. Mustaches can’t run or have money. Or can they?
Not only does Oates’ mustache star in the new crime-fighting cartoon J-Stache independently from its host’s face, it also encourages Oates, a domesticated family man, to return to his bang-out rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle. "In a cartoon setting, the mustache has its own personality," says John Oates. "Just as I’m represented as the John Oates of today, the mustache is the John Oates of yesterday. The focus of the music will be on the back catalog, but it’s an open-ended situation. There’s even talk of the mustache trying to bring new bands into the picture."
This sort of makes me want to kiss John Oates in a grassy field, because I don’t know how many aging pop stars are willing to get behind a blatant exploitation of their sheer kitsch factor. Rick Astley can come too, I guess... he was pretty chill about the "Rickrolled" phenomenon.
Independent publisher Primary Wave Music Publishing are trying to find a venue for the cartoon now, which may have its debut right here on the internets. The first episode of J-Stache portrays a present-day John Oates opening a new wing of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame devoted to mustachioed rock stars.
(Does anyone else feel like this kinda sorta maybe might be a joke?)
Eazy, Breezy, Beautiful: Whartscape 2008 Lineup Finalized
On July 17, Whartscape 2008 will commence in Baltimore, MD. With a mindblowing 72 acts crammed into four days, ticket prices must surely be expensive, right? IIIRRRRNT. Wrong. This idiosyncratic, highly awesome fest is ECONOMICAL to the max. In fact, if you buy individual day tickets at $12 (+ $.67 for the PayPal fee), each act will average to a mere 70¢. And if you buy the four-day pass at $40 (+ $1.50 PayPal fee), each performance is reduced to 58¢! Can you imagine paying 58¢ to see Matmos? Or Oxes? Or Dan Deacon? Or what about Nautical Almanac, Black Dice, WZT Hearts, Ponytail, and Jana Hunter for less than $3? This is the sale of the millennium, readers.
Now, go to Wham City’s website, check out the lineup, buy your tickets, and then waddle through the fuzzy warmth starting July 17. E-mail me if you want me to tell you other ways to live your life.
Even if you wanted to, there would be no way to escape all things Oberst this summer and fall. Love him or hate him, Omaha’s son will be hitting every single country over the next few months. No, seriously, I think the only place he isn’t playing is the Middle East. You see, Oberst has a new self-titled record coming out August 4 in the UK on Wichita and August 5 in the U.S. on Merge. And of course he has to tour and support it, because there still may be some people out there who have yet to hear of him.
It’s an Oberst summer:

Most of Robert Pollard’s musical activities over the last five or six years have not garnered much of my time. Having read much about Pollard online and in print — TMT, Inc. demands that I stay on the internet reading about music for 10 hours a day, much to my girlfriend’s chagrin — I think I have been rightly apathetic. People appear to have a blind soft spot for him, which keeps them from writing totally negative reviews (aside from our most recent review, of course), but I haven’t seen so many 3-star (6-star if you prefer) reviews in my life. Plus, who can get excited when something new from the man is released every couple months? These aren’t fuckin’ Chryslers, for god’s sake. There are so many records that being a RP fan is a full-time undertaking.
This time around, ol’ Bobby has another new band for us, and it is called Boston Spaceships. This one seems a bit — if not musically, at least quality-wise — different. That was the impression I got after listening to an MP3 on the band’s site and reading the listed influences of Cheap Trick, Wire, Alice Cooper, The dB’s on the upcoming record, Brown Submarine. Admittedly, it did get me a little geeked. The LP was recorded in Portland, OR and Kent, OH and is set for release on RP’s own GBV, Inc. label September 9. Along with Uncle Bob, the band is rounded out by Chris Slusarenko (GBV, Takeovers) and John Moen (Decemberists, Perhapst), and will also feature Jason Narducy and Tommy Keene in its live incarnation.
Live, yes, I said it. The band is a live entity, which is rare for Pollard in the last couple years. The band will head out on tour a couple weeks after the LP’s release, beginning the trek with The High Strung in Cincinnati at the Midpoint Music Festival and wrapping it all up October 18 in Nashville.

I have opted to go and see Girl Talk this summer/fall on his huge whirlwind tour in support of Feed the Animals --- released digitally June 19 and expected physically September 23 via Illegal Art — because:
Viva La Vida wasn’t as awesome as I thought it’d be, so I need a new favorite band of ’08
I didn’t pay for Feed the Animals and need to make up for it somehow
I am trying to annoy my overly-religious parents who hate this kind of music and already think that I might be gay
I am trying to convince a girl that I actually do know how to dance
I didn’t pay for Feed the Animals OR In Rainbows, and I REALLY need to make up for it somehow
I work at one of these clubs and have to show up either way. Who the fuck’s Girl Talk?
I didn’t pay for Feed the Animals (TMT Review), In Rainbows (TMT Review), OR Ghosts I-IV (TMT Review), and REALLY REALLY need to make up for it somehow
I need to feel like I do "black" things sometimes

Recording Industry Calls Broadcasting Industry "A Form of Piracy"; Royalty Bill On Its Way to full Judiciary Committee
A couple weeks ago, we reported how the Performance Rights Act was under negotiations:
The bill primarily aims to (1) amend the Copyright Act by granting equal rights to musicians when receiving compensation from terrestrial broadcasters, and (2) establish a flat rate for non-commercial and public terrestrial stations that make less than $1.25 million a year. Essentially, the bill wants to place the same enforcement on terrestrial radio that already exists on internet and satellite radio." —Performance Rights Act Currently Under Negotiations; Local Radio Freedom Act Gaining Steam
Last Monday, the recording industry called AM-FM broadcasting a "form of piracy":
On Monday, the recording industry sent the National Association of Broadcasters — the trade group representing the $16 billion a year AM-FM broadcasting business — a can of herring to underscore that it believes its arguments against paying royalties are a red herring. The NAB says its members should not pay royalties because AM-FM radio “promotes” the music industry. [...] "It’s a form of piracy, if you will, but not in the classic sense as we think of it," said Martin Machowsky, a musicFirst spokesman. —Recording Industry Decries AM-FM Broadcasting as "A Form of Piracy" (Thanks James K.)
On Thursday, the Performance Rights Act passed a U.S. House subcommittee and is heading to a full Judiciary Committee:
A U.S. House subcommittee passed a bill Thursday that would require radio stations to pay royalties to artists for playing their music. The Performance Rights Act passed on voice vote in the House Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property. The next step for the bill is a vote by the full Judiciary Committee. —House Subcommittee Votes Yes On Royalty Bill
Next week?
Dear Mr P,
I accept the fact that I had to sacrifice a whole morning polishing your Benz for whatever it was I did wrong. But I think you’re crazy to also make me write a news story telling you who I think Mercury Rev are, if they are actually going to release two Yep Roc, David Fridmann-produced albums September 30 entitled Snowflake Midnight and Strange Attractor (the latter being a companion album to Snowflake Midnight and a FREE download available to anyone on Yep Roc’s Mercury Rev mailing list), and chart their forthcoming tour schedule that will take them to a number of European festivals and club dates. You see them how you want to see them... in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definition. But what I found out is that each one in Mercury Rev is a brain... and an athlete... a Jonathan Donahue... and a basket case... a Grasshopper... a princess... a Jeff Mercel... and a criminal. Does that answer your question?
Sincerely, the Breakfast Burrito.
Snowflake Midnight:
1. Snowflake in a Hot World
2. Butterfly’s Wings
3. Senses on Fire
4. People Are So Unpredictable (There’s No Bliss Like Home)
5. October Sunshine
6. Runaway Raindrop
7. Dream of a Young Girl as a Flower
8. Faraway for Cars
9. A Squirrel and I (Holding On...and Letting Go)
Strange Attractor:
1. Love Is Pure
2. Taken Up Into Clouds, Changed and Rained Down
3. Pure Joie de la Solitude
4. Persistence and the Apis Mellifera
5. Fable of a Silver Moon
6. Loop Lisse, Loop
7. In My Heart, a Strange Attractor
8. Incident on Abeel Street
9. Af Den Fader Kommer Den Sol
10. Because Because Because
11. Nocturne for Norwood
"Zooming in at any part of SNOWFLAKE MIDNIGHT, at nearly any conceivable magnification, always reveals the forces of symmetry and chaos at play, shimmering, vibrating close-ups and vistas of Life driving itself onward, bursting with patterns and mandala-like forms pushed to the brink of incredible pressures then lost in an instant... blown apart by their own majestic desire to share themselves, spirals of new momentum inter-twingling with the vastness of limitless new creation... The entire album sequence appears to be a resplendent fractal, folding in upon itself, into something continually new, unpredictable and spontaneous, and yet, paradoxically at times so subtly self-aware, never failing to resemble itself in the whole..." says the band’s website. Good. I effin’ love "chaos at play!"
