Nada Surf will be returning to Indianapolis on June 9th at the Music Mill. The Republic Tigers will be opening.
If you didn’t get a chance to listen to our interview with Nada Surf with Richard Edwards of Margot and the Nuclear So and Sos, now is a good time.
Two songs from our set at Big Car on April 4th. Nat Russel had some great work up, and we where happy to have it as a back drop for rocking. Enjoy.
Seriously, why is CNN the bastion of crap video? I guess if I had to fill up programming 24/7/365, I’d probably run some stupid stuff too, but wow.
Here is some great insight into Rick-rolling, which, I wasn’t aware of until a month or so ago, and I found out more true information about that in five minutes of web surfing than this reporter did in what I can imagine were days of interviewing the co-producer of Rick Astley’s hit. It is worth a watch to see him dancing alone.

And of course, the Cheney sunglasses. Listen to the way these people talk. It makes me want to collapse into a coma. Why are they even reporting on it? Oh, they are reporting on it because “the blogs” are writing about it.
“…has been checking the blooooogs this morning.. whaddyagot? … Well, if you goooooogle dick cheney sunglasses, you’ll get like 100,000 hits….”
Come on, this isn’t even news, it’s stupid.

The best part is, I am perpetuating it by blogging about it.
So Pitchfork.tv launched today, and it is pretty much the awesome. It also, pretty much embodies what I set out to with RockitBomb, and have yet to actually pull off.
They have launched with an exclusive Radiohead live performance, and have some cool Liars stuff up as well.
The footage looks great, the FLV player is well done (the full screen doesn’t suck) and everything is very well produced.
There is also a “One Week Only ” section featuring “loudQUIETloud: A Film About the Pixies.”
Check out the site, hopefully RockitBomb can pull something like this off in the future. If anyone else is interested in helping, please let me know.
