Leeds Festival 2010 is here in only 10 days and like last year I received several recommendations for musicians and bands to see from friends on Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr, some of which I now enjoy listening to on a regular basis.
This year I want to do the same by asking my followers for advice on who they would see if they happened to be in my shoes that very weekend. From what I can tell, you all seem to have pretty eclectic tastes and I’d greatly appreciate it if some of you could take a couple of minutes to see who’s playing and say “Hey, I love those guys! Be sure to check ‘em out”.
Regardless of my current taste in music and considering the entertainment you all bring me with your own posts, listening to your recommendations is the least I can do for you.
Cheers.

I have Regina Spektor, John Fogerty and Weezer (with a surprise Julia Nunes appearance) on #BonnarooLive over on YouTube to occupy the next three hours.
God bless American VPNs.

As for the rest of the line-up…

  1. The Libertines reforming is pretty sweet, provided that Pete Doherty actually shows up.
  2. Guns N’ Roses have and always will be nothing without Slash.
  3. Blink-182? Hmmm… sure, why not?
  4. Cypress Hill? Excellent! [And no I ain’t joking]

Everyone else, nothing spectacular as I’ve seen every other band before that’s on that list.

I’m tempted to sell my weekend ticket and just go for the Saturday (I really want to see Weezer live) but I shall wait for the Lock Up (Punk, Hardcore and Ska) stage before I can tell it’s gonna be a good year or not and make my decision.

Stop What You’re Doing And Watch The Hell Out Of This of the Day: Ben Folds took to Chatroulette last night during a concert in Charlotte, North Carolina, to perform an “ode to Merton” — his Chatroulette-trolling, behind-a-hoodie-hiding sound-alike.

this is amazing

 This is why Ben Folds is a legend among musicians.

Sam, the only thing better than you posting a link to a video of Death from Above 1979, is the Harry Potter patronus ad they ran next to it.
You’re unintentionally amazing.

Love it. Also, &lt;3 DFA
