Hors d'Oeuvres

It may be Monday, but we can take some solace in the fact that we have a short week in front of us. Remember, New Year’s is only five weeks off at this point, so start making those plans, concert or otherwise…

• Hall of Fames officially jump the shark after the Long Island Music Hall of Fame announces its first inductees
• Upon listening to it this weekend, I must agree with this reviewer that What It Is! is the one of best box sets of the decade. Check out the E-Card and tell me I’m wrong, I dare ya
• Jay-Z performs a Big Cypress-esque seven concerts in one day
• Modest Mouse, in for a big 2007, finished its brief tour Saturday night at the Bowery Ballroom
• Artistic mash-up or crappy ploy to sell even more Beatles records? Will you buy Love?
• It’s nice to see the 2007 High Sierra Festival will return to Quincy with the hope of less police action
• Friend of HT Henge alerts us that Trey Anastasio = Johnny Flip-Flop
• Get your gobble on with Ned’s NYC shows of the week
• Jambase speaks with Bill Nershi about his decision to cut the Cheese
• The East Coast’s finest outdoor venue, Bethel Woods, is about to add a Woodstock Museum
• Indiana University gets the full PCU experience from Barber and The Disco Biscuits (thanks to our Bisco-lovin’ friend Quinn on that one)

Three new DVDs you should add to your Netflix queue:
Paul McCartney: The Space Within Us
Widespread Panic: Earth To Atlanta
Leonard Cohen: I’m Your Man

As always, please comment below if we missed anything, if you have anything to tell us, or if you just need to vent about the Bears owning the NY football teams.
