Leftovers: No Blind Faith For Townshend
A few months ago The Who’s website started a rumor that Pete Townshend would be performing in some capacity at the upcoming Steve Winwood/Eric Clapton at MSG. The ever-reliable Where’s Eric website clues us in on Eric and Steve’s lineup, also stating strongly that Townshend will not appear at the Garden. I guess we’ll see who’s right in just a few short weeks.
Let’s end the week with a piping hot batch of links, fresh from the oven:
- Yoko Ono denies that she’s suing Lennon Murphy
- The Clash Live: Revolution Rock DVD hits stores on April 15
- Pitchfork shares photos from the Tibet House Benefit
- Anti-Live Nation forces continue to fight the good fight
- Comcast defends their right to screw over BitTorrent users
- Why have music magazine covers sucked lately?
- Yonder Mountain brings “prog-grass” to Athens
- Turn It Up turns us onto Powerhouse Sound
R.E.M. just released the Vincent Moon-directed video for their new single, Supernatural Superserious, and we kinda like the direction they seem to be taking on Accelerate. I first saw R.E.M. at MSG in 1988 (gold clap), so I love hearing the jingle-jangle of Peter Buck’s guitar, Mike Mills’ high harmonies and Michael Stipe’s straight forward lyrics. All of the sudden, I’m getting really excited to see the band at Langerado. Check out the video after the jump…
