The big ole' weekend update!
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club are the best live band on the planet at this moment! So the Stereophonics have fired their drummer Stuart Cable and I’m extremely angry to hear about this and disappointed in Kelly and Richard. Apparently, Stuart’s pretty pissed-off too! And with good reason I think. That cheating whore from The Distillers marked the end of her marriage to Tim Armstrong by changing her name to Brody Dalle... Bitch. Dear God. Please bring TCTC to Toronto. Carl wants Pete back! Free Pete! New promo shots of The Strokes! (Link courtesy of YHNR where they have tons of sweet new stuff.)
And the new album’s release has been pushed back to October 28th. Chartattack: "Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Hate Their Generation". Now you too can be an annoying MuchMusic VJ!

Concert updates galore!
The Thrills better bring the sunshine when they play the Horseshoe on October 25th. Belle & Sebastian are playing Massey Hall on November 8th!

They have a Listening Post where you can listen to tracks handpicked by the boys (which surprisingly doesn’t suck!) and now a “Which Stroke Are You?” quiz (for the record, I got Jules)! What is this world coming to!?!
… No Ryan, then you’d just be an alcoholic who likes plants.

I’ve been a bad blogger lately… Sometimes I wonder if anyone is still reading this…
I think I should really stop drinking…
Talk Like A Pirate Day came and went without me saying “Arrrr matey!” once. The Dears played The Hideaway in St Kitts (St. Catharines for those of you not from the neighborhood) and Marcus said it was “amazing” and I believe him. I only just realized that The Darkness gig I had planned on attending was LAST NIGHT. What the fuck happened? BORING BORING BORING!

In support of Phantom Power, their latest CD and DVD release, Super Furry Animals (signed to XL Recordings in North America) will be playing an acoustic in-store performance at SoundScapes (572 College Street) in Toronto on Monday, September 15th at 7pm.
This event is sure to be packed so please make sure to show up early! The Furries will likely mingle after the event to sign copies of the Phantom Power and Rings Around the World CD and DVD sets.
I am deeply saddened by the death of Johnny Cash but am consoled by the fact that at least he and June will be together again for eternity. RIP.

Last night's Kings of Leon/Jet/22-20s show was so in demand that tickets were going for "$1,000 and a blowjob". Seriously.

I'm borrowing a friend's comp so I don't let you kids down. I promise we'll be back in business by Monday!
Fuck me! The Strokes are playing Toronto on October 14 with Kings of Leon… This is the stuff rock’n’roll dreams are made of! Primal Scream ‘Best of’ on November 3rd called “Dirty Hits”. The Darkness plays Lee’s palace on September 20th in an attempt to break America. Coopers should be banned from drinking and driving golf carts. Ryan Adams and Parker Posey? It suppose it was inevitable.
