Pune: This looked like a cut out from Bollywood blockbusters Aandhi and Pratighaat where kings visited common man's doorstep.
Congress candidate Vishwajeet Kadam, who is referred to as Balasaheb at Bharati Vidyapeeth empire of Kadams, was seen obediently getting down of the open jeep for Ganesh Arati or Aukshan in the chawls and slums of Pune on Sunday.
Kadam arrived at Gajanan Maharaj Temple in Parvati Darshan almost 84 minutes late than the scheduled time of 4 pm from where he started his Padyatra cum Jeepyatra.
He got down from his SUV and walked down to Gajanan Maharaj temple and adjoining Ganapati temple for seeking blessings. In an open jeep, he undertook Jeepyatra in Laxminagar. He also visited Gavali Wada, Date Stop, Taljai slums and Chavannagar areas.
Earlier, he started his Padyatra from Bhavanimata Mandir at Bhavani Peth and went to Juna Motor stand, Padmaji Park, and Kasewadi areas.
Ministers Patangrao Kadam, Harshawardhan Patil, NCP city unit president and Rajya Sabha MP Vandana Chavan, Congress city unit president Abhay Chhajed, MLA Ramesh Bagve and other MLCs and corporators were present for the Jeepyatra.
Interestingly, Kadam who has never fought any election from the city had to abide by local leaders while deciding on routes and sometimes it created confusion and confrontation among the leaders.
At Bhavani Peth police line, MLA Bagve initially discouraged Kadam from visiting the police line. The residents of the police line were angry and did not allow the yatra to proceed without visiting police lines and Kadam had to visit the police line.
In the evening, there was one upmanship between NCP group leader Subhash Jagtap, Congress corporator Aba Bagul and Anil Jadhav.
Despite the fact that Jeepyatra was traveling much faster than the expectation of the local residents, Kadam found it hard to smile at residents standing on both the sides of the roads. He showed political maturity of touching feet of almost every elderly woman who blessed him with Aukshan (Arai Utarana).
Slogans of Ekach Wada, Vishwajeetdada along with loud sounds of Dhol-Tasha announced the arrival of Jeepyatra.
Many who were out with their families found it hard to ply on city roads as the yatra held the traffic at many places.
Jeep breaks down
There was a competition of leaders and local corporators to stand on the Jeep along with Vishwajeet and the jeep could not bear this load. The crucial nut of the engine of the Jeep (MH12-KJ9296) broke and the open Jeep had to be abandoned for repairs even after Kadam left from the spot.

Not sure if I like the bottom, I feel as if because the torso has a clean and classic cinch at the waist that the bottom should go a-line to further emphasize it.

text: I will be taking a trip in October to Florida to visit relatives. I am an older woman traveling alone on a limited budget. I would like to return to Minnesota via Washington DC and New York City but will not have the time or money to spend a great deal of time in either place. I have made plans so far to spend the weekend in Washington DC to take advantage of the weekend rates and going to New York on Sunday. My big question is do I want to go by Amtrak or Greyhound. It definitely seems as if Amtrak would be more comfortable even in coach which I would have to use but Greyhound would give me more flexibility as even though there are lots of trains between Washington and New York there is only one a day to Minneapolis that would allow me to get any sightseeing done and still not require me to stay overnight in New York.

here we have another diorama i did a few years ago, this time on a laguna seca like road course:
an overhead view:
here you see the toyota s800 coming off the track and fouling a cone as the photographer (off camera) gets nervous:
heres another shot this time from the photographers perspective:
heres a worms eye view:
the honda's pilot, i think he needs to get his hand back on the wheel! :
the base was made up from an amt display case with bondo built up and textured, then painted. nothing spectacular but it serves the purpose.
the cars are a tamiya honda s800, a fujimi toyota s800 and a (jeez i forget who made this...fujimi maybe?) subaru 360 that imo is the coolest thing here. both honda and toyota have complete engine detail, plumbing and wiring but the subaru is curbside. all three have been kitbashed a bit but essentially box stock, but pilots have been added to all three cars sometimes at the risk of great bodily harm (theirs not mine!)...

Media bollocks. Nothing in any coverage says the guy was stabbed 'because' of WoW. It says a guy who played WoW stabbed someone.. the arguement about WoW was with someone else. The guy he was arguing with about WoW didn't get stabbed.
Basically, two guys were arguing about summat.. a nosy neighbour went over and started taking the piss and making fun of them, bullying them. I wouldn't take that shit either.
The guy was probably stabbed because he was being a dick.Thu Jul 19 2012 10:03AM Report
I like this video, I think Pokket did a nice job of addressing a very serious issue without becoming preachy. Being able to admit you have a problem is a brave, and hard thing to do. When I started playing WoW around 14 years old, I was able to play it casually I didn't really get addicted until a few years later, I did start neglecting my life, especially family. I would make time to go be with friends and at most I might go to dinner with my family but I would never just hang out or do family things with them anymore. part of that is just normal teenager stuff, but I did realize that I was becoming more and more absorbed into these games. Like Pokket, I took time away from games. I quit WoW for about 2 years, and didn't really pick up any new games til after the 2 years was up. At first it was hard to do, but it became easier over time ...it was sort of like readjusting to reality and getting back on a bike after a long time. When I started playing games again I've found that I'm happier playing more casually, I don't even raid anymore because I've chosen not to unless it's on a weekend where there is NOTHING planned at all. I always encourage my friends online, and guildmates that if they have something coming up, or the opportunity to do something IRL they need to do it instead of playing the game.Thu Jul 19 2012 11:15AM Report
Even if these events are rare (in scope, million of players play wow, yet there are very few of reported cases like the stabbing stuff), something has to be said regarding the methods that MMO´s bring to the table in order to earn money. Specifically, I think that using cognitive behavioural theory in this kind of exposure is very dangerous. The methods used, such as random rate reward (gear farming) or fixed rate reward (badges) are extremely conditioning, specially for smaller kids. I am reluctant to call it an addiction per se, but it gets damn close. Of course, gaming industry is not the only one using these methods (Mc Donalds happy meal for kids), and of course, not everyone ends up stabbing someone, my theory is that the stabbing kid has some mental disorder or inadequate personality traits that made him prome to this kind of reactions. However, I do not believe that these kind of violent reactions are the most problematic ones in terms of burden to society, many elementary and high school students lower their school grades and performance because they cant stop playing, because they are conditioned.
Great video, and sign me up for UO2 too :).Thu Jul 19 2012 11:55AM Report
I agree Pokket! I was quite upset when Ultima X: Odyssey was nixed. I was so looking forward to Ultima Online going 3D. I too, would be one of the happiest gamers in the world if UO was remake, akin to what was going to happen with UX:O.
I played UO since the beginning of the Baja Shard at the end of September in '97 until sometime in 2004 when I finally threw in the towel after both my Castle and Keep, which were supposed to be grand-fathered, decayed - loosing 7 years of collecting.Thu Jul 19 2012 12:53PM Report
All I got to say is..stay away from Second Life people. Seriously. If you are one of those people that play Second Life like it's your First life, you need to stop. It's unhealthy and First Life is much better. I speak from experience. I was sucked in and lost countless days from my life that I'll never get back playing that damn game.
UO was the shit though. I miss that game so much and I'd deff play UO 2 if it was ever created. Ohh and Star Wars Galaxies too.Thu Jul 19 2012 2:17PM Report

I think Blizzard just know how to make these absurdly addictive games. I've been trying to figure out what it is that makes WoW so much more addictive than other games and I'm honestly thinking its the simplicity of it. It appears to be pretty straight forward but then theres all this depth too. But it does it in a way that you rarely ever feel overwhelmed and that progression is a simple step away. Anybody agree?Thu Jul 19 2012 3:45PM Report
Heres how the news should be told...
Guy plays WoW for a week straight and loses touch with reality. In a sudden fight for his life in-game, he becomes so enthralled with it that he realizes his neighbor has the coveted Heart of Purity that his paladin so desparately needs. So he rushes over and stabs the man in the chest in an attempt to aquire said item. Afterwards he realizes what he just did and says... "Oh shit, I'm AFK in a dungeon" and goes back home to rectify more important matters.Thu Jul 19 2012 4:40PM Report

Meh, more media sensationalism blowing stories way out of proportion. As someone else stated already the stabbing had nothing to do with WoW. Don't get involved with other peoples' fights, simply called the police if you're concerned.

Blizz certainly does have one the most tenacious psychological marketing techniques seen nowadays - i'm sure this isn't the first stabbing nor the last. It's not Blizzard's fault people don't know how to control themselves.

I love the Ultima series (played it over a few times back then), so I definitely put this on waiting list. My only concern is EA... more precisely EA's play4free (maybe Ultima will get a new type of model, but they promote it with their other play4free titles on comic con...)
As for UO2, I won't stand in the line, didn't liked UO, just the regular series from Akallabeth to U IX (and maybe the two Underworlds) but I can support you with coffee and blankets, you'll be in that line for a long time I guess :)Fri Jul 20 2012 2:57AM Report

I don't know if I agree with games being as bad as drugs. Some people let them affect their emotions too much, but in the world we live in, sometimes games are the only social interaction we can get.

I stabbed ppl for less reasons...no no just kidding. Or not?
Well anyway I jused to play way to much MMORPG for a long time, and it sure was like a addiction. I noticed something was wrong when I stated to think about my Troll Shaman while I was kissing my GF =)Sat Jul 21 2012 10:18AM Report
There are plenty of unhappy, or depressed people that find comfort in a new online personality.
This is tragic but in some cases these people can also find confidence, success, or other positive attributes to build upon.
My introduction to the MMO world came after a failed business venture. I lost a great deal of money and I had plenty of stress to deal with.
The game was a distraction and I could not pull myself from it entirely for a long time, probably about a year realistically. I knew it was an addiction but that alone is not enough to combat such a thing.
After I quit that game and moved on to other games or projects I spent another year just getting my mind right, and sorting out my life.
Now I can look back on it all and see clearly what happend and why. Back then everything seemed normal to me, it was my friends and family that were concerned about it and they were entirely justified to feel that way.
Sat Jul 21 2012 2:26PM Report
I was addicted to games for 4+ years. I neglected my family... and I would even leave work early (losing RL money) to go home and farm nodes to increase my in-game wealth.
Then I turned 39 five months ago... and I walked away from games that day... promising to not hit 40 in this condition.
So instead of marvelling at how realistic the leaves look on the trees in game X... I go outside and look at real leaves. With just a little healthier eating and mild activity, I've dropped 30 pounds since then.
I'll log on once a week to say hi to the old gang, but after you spend some significant time away, you have a chance to realize that it's all "1"s and "0"s and doesn't amount to much in the big picture.
But I'm not condeming anyone. As far as entertainment goes, it's a great bang for the buck (even with the dying subscription model). But don't miss out on the world around you.Sat Jul 21 2012 5:35PM Report

ya i was like that before. actually i fought my ex best friend so many times over mmorpg, but that was during highschool. now i'm 25 buisy with college and enjoying life. still play games but i have control over my addictions. games nowdays are as strong as drugs though and it can get really dangerous. i also think if you take games way to seriously and comes to the point where you physically harm someone over an arguement in a game well you really need to step out of your little fantasy world and just relax. do something else in your spare time. go have sex, meet girls, watch a movie, play sports, hang out with your friends. it's not hard. yes games are like drugs but its all about how strong your mentality is. if you know you can quit then you can but if you keep thinking you need it well you need to get that extra help you need.Sun Jul 22 2012 12:27PM Report
It's pretty awesome to hear other people have gone through the same gaming experience as me. I got completely addicted to UO for quite some time. (smelting ingots 1 by 1 FTW!; somehow it was worth it lol) . I stll haven't had that feeling I had playing UO with other MMO's, maybe it's nastalgia, but I think it's just the free form of the game that I haven't really seen in any other mmo.
But yeah I was playing way too much, but it was a positive escape from other stuff that was going and I was still young and didn't have too many responsibilities so it worked out well.
As I gained more responsibilities I naturally tamed the addiction and just play in spurts when I have free time, ie: after career stuff, after family etc... (which unfortunately isn't much time :( ).
But yeah super excited for a rebirth of UO. I'm not even sure I want something NEW. I just want them to revamp the graphics, make it solid (keep the isometric perspective!) , make the motion and gameplay smooth and for the love of god have a more awesome UI. When they announced a new UI on one of their expansions I was all excited, but then I saw it was all gold and clunky and was like WTF, fire the UI designer!
Cheers to high hopes.Sun Jul 22 2012 1:09PM Report
It certainly is sad and disturbing when players take games literally to a whole new level and into reality by injuring others including themselves. It is also the second time I have heard reports of a death involving a player that conumes his "life" with these supposed forms of entertainment.
I personally have been playing MMO's for years and noted sustainment of physical discomfort due to stationary positioning for extended amounts of time. finding it hard to pull way when neccessary just because it can be so addictive and fun at times. Not to mention the fact that some quest/s or instances can consume hours at a tiem and it is impacting and negative if you bail on a group in mid-game.
Truly we all need to control every aspect of our lives, it's not just gaming, but any other objective even work can over take us. The only thing we truly need to let consume us(not to sound like a panzy)is genuine love for one another.
MODERATION...as stated before is the key.
Peace and goodwill gaming to all us out there.Sun Jul 22 2012 4:23PM Report

The feeding tubes were removed: "I could sit up. I could eat. I had survived. I could even hear music. The guards were listening to rock music."
One might say that Hitler's guards were somewhat more refined in their tastes: After a hard day at the concentration camp, they would relax by listening to Mozart and Beethoven.
Next week: How Murat Kurnaz was finally able to leave Guantánamo after getting a civilian lawyer, Baher Azmy, a professor of constitutional law at the Seton Hall Law School in New Jersey, who proved from the Defense Department's own records that most of the "worst of the worst" (as Donald Rumsfeld once described the Guantánamo inmates) had no connection with Al Qaeda or any of the world's other terrorist organizations.
While working on Kurnaz's defense, Azmy discovered that his client—who, he says, looked as though he'd been "shipwrecked" when he first saw him—had been the subject of a secret report that U.S. military intelligence had written six months after Kurnaz had been caged in Guantánamo: "Criminal Investigation Task Force has no definite link or evidence of detainee having an association with al-Qaeda or making any specific threat toward the U.S." And German intelligence reported to their superiors that "USA considers Murat Kurnaz's innocence to be proven. He is to be released in approximately six to eight weeks."
That was in 2002. Kurnaz wasn't let go for another three and a half years. Aren't you proud to be an American?

Lincoln family remembers portersMarch 11,2013Lincoln family remembers porters
MANCHESTER The Vermont mansion that was home to some of the children of President Abraham Lincoln is launching a new education program to commemorate the roles of Pullman porters.
This spring the Manchester home, known as Hildene, will use a fully restored 1903 wooden Pullman palace rail car, Sunbeam, as the setting for the first of its kind program in Vermont.
Fifth- and sixth-grade students will be able to focus on the role that the Pullman porters played in giving rise to Americas black middle class, the formation of the black labor movement and the U. S. civil rights movement.
Robert Lincoln, the son of the president who emancipated the slaves during the Civil War, was president of the Pullman Co. when he built Hildene in 1905.MORE IN Southern VermontBENNINGTON A Pownal woman and her boyfriend are both facing felony charges after a man said the...

Sunflower Stained Glass Bottle

By painting a creative design on a special bottle, you'll have a thrifty gift for the holidays or any time of year. The Sunflower Stained Glass Bottle from Jacquard Products is a great project for a homemade gift in a jar.
- Glass bottle
- Jacquard Piñata Color Exciter Pack (includes seven colors, extender and clean up solution)
- Jacquard Pearl Ex Powder (#656 Brilliant Gold)
- Bristle Brushes
- Palette
- Starting with a clean, dry and oil-free surface, I applied the Piñata Colors with inexpensive natural bristle brushes. Beginning with the leaves and stems, I painted with Lime.
- Green #021. Long strokes in the leaves created a textured look. Additional layers of green added more pigment and texture. (Note: Dry Piñata Colors will re-solubilize when brushed with wet ink or the Clear Extender. Excess ink can be wiped off immediately or dried ink may be removed using the Piñata Clean Up Solution. You can repaint as needed.)
- For the petals of the sunflower I used Piñata Sunbright Yellow #002.
- For the center of the sunflower, I used a stippling-like technique. I dipped the brush into Piñata Burro Brown #025, then directly into Pearl Ex Powder Brilliant Gold #656 and dabbed the mixture of the two onto the bottle. To create the "shading" look for the center of the sunflower, I first dabbed the Burro Brown alone and then Piñata Clear Extender with the Brilliant Gold #656 as described above. Mixing the powder with the ink created a nice texture and adhered well to the glass.
- Add flowers.

The National (band & documentary) playing Tribeca Film Fest, headlining Boston Calling Music Festival
A still from 'Mistaken for Strangers'
The National, who'll headline the Barclays Center in June, are the subject of a new tour documentary, Mistaken for Strangers, which will make its premiere at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival (April 17 - 28). The film was directed by Tom Berninger, whose brother Matt is lead singer of The National. Here's the synopsis:
Adrift in life and fuelled by the desire to create, Tom Berninger accepts his brother's offer to come on The National tour as a roadie and decides to chronicle his experiences with the band. Although Tom starts off with dreams of making a rock documentary (you can watch the portaits he made on each of the band members), a different story emerges as tensions among the band members lead to unforeseen drama. Following the band from Berlin to Paris to Los Angeles to a 2010 Obama rally in Madison, Wisconsin, Mistaken for Strangers is not your typical road documentary.The film will screen on April 17 and will be followed by a special live performance by The National.
Festival packages go on sale to AmEx cardholders on Monday (3/4), which is one day before the entire slate of films for Tribeca will be announced. Festival passes go on sale to the general public following Monday (3/11). Individual tickets will go on sale 4/9 for AmEx cardholders, 4/14 for downtown residents and 4/15 to the general public.
In related news, The National are co-headlining (with fun.) the Boston Calling Music Festival which goes down in Beantown on May 25 and 26. The fest also includes appearances by The Shins, Of Monsters & Men, Dirty Projectors, Andrew Bird and more. Tickets to Boston Calling go sale Friday, March 8 and the whole line-up is below.

Sleigh Bells, Grizzly Bear, The Antlers and Cults raised $300k for Sandy relief at Terminal 5 (pics)

Sleigh Bells/Grizzly Bear/The Antlers @ T5, 12/14/2012
Sleigh Bells with Grizzly Bear (who played Bowery earlier in the week), The Antlers and Cults played 4 Artists 1 Cause, a Hurricane Sandy benefit on Friday (2/14) at Terminal 5. According to reports from the Har Mar Superstar-hosted show, they raised somewhere in the neighborhood of $300k towards Sandy relief efforts. Pictures from that show are in this post below.
Richie Follin of Cults spent the next night (12/15) at Knitting Factory as part of Guards. Meanwhile, The Antlers are offering up an early holiday gift to fans in the form of a cello-driven cover of their song "No Windows" by their friend Brent Arnold. You stream that below, along with more pics from T5...

Guards are gearing up for the release of their debut album, In Guards We Trust, which will be out February 5. A couple tastes from the album are ready to scoop into now -- the new single "Coming True" is streamable below, as is the video for "Silver Lining." If you like "whoa-ohs" and instantly sing-a-long choruses (they're not that far from what the Rosebuds do, really), check it out.
They're an engaging live band too, at least when I saw them during CMJ this year. You can find out for yourself as Guards, fronted by Richie Follin (who is also a member of Cults with his sister Madeline), are on a tour now which includes a NYC stop at Knitting Factory on December 15 with TEEN and Your Youth. Tickets for that show are on sale. They'll hit the road with Menomena in February as well, though no dates in NYC for that jaunt.
A list of all Guards dates, video, and streams, below...

Beach Day at Knitting Factory, June 2012 (more by Amanda Hatfield)
Beach Day are staying busy on the road this year, having already visited NYC a couple times, and are preparing for another East Coast tour, that will bring them here for two shows next month: September 14 at Pianos and September 16 at Cameo. Tickets to the Cameo show are on sale now.
The Cameo show is with Blonds, who, as mentioned, will play the Rock Shop even sooner on August 28. That show, presented by Brooklyn Brewery, is the "Brooklyn, Sweden Sendoff" with Telepathe, So-So Glos and Teen Commandments all of whom will play the Brooklyn, Sweden Festival in Stockholm and Malmö over Labor Day Weekend (8/31 - 9/1). Blonde Redhead, The Hold Steady, Cults, Crystal Stilts, Phosphorescent, Au Revoir Simone, Dum Dum Girls, DIIV, Twin Sister, Widowspeak, Maluca, Prince Rama, Caveman, and DJs Finger on the Pulse will also be there, so if you're wondering why Williamsburg seems empty that weekend, that's why.
Tickets to the send-off party at The Rock Shop are on sale now: it's $15 bucks but includes free Brooklyn Brewery beer from 7:30 - 9:30 PM.
A flyer for the Brooklyn, Sweden Sendoff party, plus Beach Day and Blonds tour dates, are below.

Modest Mouse / Lupe Fiasco
The Firefly Music Festival continued in Dover, DE on Saturday (7/21) with sets from Modest Mouse, Polica, Cults, Charles Bradley, Lupe Fiasco, Cake, The Killers, and more. Passion Pit were scheduled to play that day, but unfortunately the Delware festival was one of the dates that the band had to cancel. They were replaced by Yeasayer at the last minute, who played at the same time as Lupe Fiasco (and we unfortunately missed).
The festival has already announced they'll be back next year. Pre-sale for 2013 general admission tickets go on sale Wednesday (7/25) at noon.
Pics of day 1 are HERE, pics of Death Cab for Cutie's set from day 3 are HERE (the rest from day 3 coming soon) and more of day 2 are below...

Grimes / Godspeed You! Black Emperor
The 2012 Pitchfork Music Festival continued on Saturday (7/14), and like day 1, Chicago's Union Park was plagued by some rain, but everything moved along as planned and the weather cleared up by mid-afternoon. Day 2 began with sets by The Psychic Paramount and The Atlas Moth (both of who we unfortunately missed) and then continued with Cloud Nothings, Flying Lotus, Schoolboy Q, Chromatics, Hot Chip, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Grimes and much more.
If you weren't at the festival, did you stream it live?

Governors Ball 2012 -- Day 2 pics (Beck, Explosions in the Sky, Built to Spill, Devendra Banhart, Cults & more)

Beck/Devendra Banhart at Governors Ball - 6/24/12
"But the real agenda of Sunday's Governors Ball was a day of crescendos. Separated from Saturday -- a day of computerized repetitions and volume control and equalizer tweaks -- Sunday was for bands building at their own pace. It might be the grunge surges of Cage the Elephant or the strategic crescendos of Explosions in the Sky, but it was hand-played and timed to human impulse. On Sunday, the cheers from the crowd showed how well real-time music-making still moves an audience. Guitars -- in Built to Spill, Cage the Elephant, Alberta Cross -- still grab people." [NY Times]Governors Ball wrapped up on Randall's Island this past Sunday (6/24) with sets from Beck, Modest Mouse, Explosions in the Sky, Fiona Apple, Built to Spill, a barely recognizable Devendra Banhart, Cults, and more. Pictures of Day 1 are HERE. Pictures of Fiona Apple's set are HERE and Modest Mouse's set are HERE and the rest of Day 2 is below.

Governors Ball is on Randall's Island this weekend (schedule, map, directions & more) (but no more Brooklyn shuttle passes)
As mentioned, Governors Ball goes down in NYC this weekend on Randall's Island from June 23-24. You can check out the full schedule for both days HERE. The lineup includes a number of bands who haven't played NYC in a while, like Passion Pit, who have a new LP coming out which you've heard two songs from; Modest Mouse, who also play the Metallica-headlined Orion Music & More festival in Atlantic City this weekend, Beck, Devendra Banhart, and more.
Fiona Apple did play in NYC pretty recently, but those shows were her first in a while and were also small venues for her and sold out instantly. Fiona also just finally released her new album and it's great, which is all the more reason to catch her set this weekend. She also recently announced a ton of new dates and performed on Fallon with the Roots.
Other bands playing include Built to Spill, Explosions in the Sky, K.Flay (who also plays Glasslands on 7/13), James Muprhy & Pat Mahoney DJ Set, Cults, Phantogram, and still many more. In addition to the music, there will be some other activities like ping pong, beer pong, silent disco, lawn games (bocce ball, croquet, etc), and from looking at the weather forecast, probably the most important of them all: free water refill stations. Tickets for the festival are still available.
Shuttles to the festival from Brooklyn and Philly are sold out but regular ferry tickets ($25), and parking passes if you plan to drive are still available. If you are heading down there by car, subway, bike or foot, here are some directions from NYC, Long Island, Westchester, and Jersey. Once you've found your way there, this map should help you get around the festival grounds. Leave your nunchucks at home.

Cults at ATP NJ (more by Dana (distortion) Yavin)
I was in a restaurant over the weekend that was playing some modern rock radio station as we ate. And after hearing Green Day, Muse, and Angels and Airwaves, "Go Outside" by Cults came on. I knew they'd gotten a lot bigger, but it definitely was still pretty weird. Anyway, they're still probably the only band on that list who plays venues like Webster Hall, which they'll do on January 19. Tickets for that show are still on sale.
When we first announced the show, it was one of a few other 2012 dates. They've since added way more dates for next year, stretching all the way through the end of April. The new dates include another NYC-area show happening on March 2 at Maxwell's in Hoboken, NJ. Tickets for this show go on sale Wednesday (12/14) at noon.
One of the dates on the tour is with of Montreal, who just announced a new tour, Webster Hall dates and an album.

Cults at ATP NJ (more by Dana (distortion) Yavin)
NYC indie pop duo Cults are currently on tour in the UK, and after playing the ATP there in December, they will return to the US and headline Webster Hall on January 19. Tickets go on sale Friday (11/18) at noon with an AmEx presale starting Wednesday (11/16) at noon. Later that month they head to Australia.
Cults recently performed for Spinner's Interface sessions. The band were interviewed and they performed "Go Outside," "Abducted," "You Know What I Mean," and "The Curse." You can watch videos of the whole thing at Spinner.

Bonnie 'Prince' Billy
For those who experienced and loved ATP America's festivals in Monticello, NY, it may have been difficult to imagine how a change of location, from upstate New York to the New Jersey shore, could possibly improve and enhance the unique and uncanny event that it was known to be. Well, it has.---
Friday afternoon the fans, followers and leaders of All Tomorrow's Parties arrived in Asbury Park, NY, a town that only five or so years ago was known for its high crime rate and abandoned boardwalk. It's likely that this decadence, however, is precisely what draws the festival and its goers to a new spot on the map, a mere hour south of New York City. Although the rain dampened the ground here at Asbury Park, it did not extinguish the ATP fire that was sparked on stage by Chavez, Reggie Watts with his knee-slapping musical spoofs (ironically fit for a music festival), event regulars Shellac, Hannibal Buress and Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, The Album Leaf and the absorbing Jeff Mangum (of Neutral Milk Hotel). -[Dossier]
Here is a full set of pictures I'll Be Your Mirror Friday. They continue below...

"Light sprinkles ushered in the first day of the tenth annual Austin City Limits Music (ACL) Festival, but it was a welcome reprieve from the humid heat that has been plaguing the area and the state. Music and festival fans came in droves to see their favorite ACL artists, and rumors swirled throughout the day as to who the main headliner of the evening, Kanye West, would share the stage with..." [Pegasus News]Kanye, who was playing opposite Coldplay on Friday night, didn't share the stage with anyone except his dancers. Those who have seen or read about any of Kanye's recent shows know what his set at ACL looked like, complete with multiple acts, ballerinas and big backdrops.
Austin City Limits continues today, Saturday (9/17). You can stream it online. More pictures from Friday below...

Punk rock long ago transcended class, age, gender and ethnicity to become a signifier not necessarily of outward rebellion but of the symbolic, crazy-on-the-inside variety. That sense of internal defiance continues to permeate the entire underground and has become a secret handshake that united not only the artists who made traditional-ish punk rock over the course of 10 hours of the FYF -- the Descendents, No Age, Off! among them -- but from a wildly divergent cast of in-yer-face artists including beat makers Nosaj Thing and Dan Deacon, the deeply sensual, self-referential house music of New York's Chromatics and Glass Candy, and the catchy, arena-aspirant bands like Broken Social Scene.You saw the Future Islands shots. Here are some more of a bunch of the acts that played FYF Fest in LA on Saturday (9/3). No Dead Milkmen, Kid Dynamite or Guided By Voices, but a bunch of other stuff below...
"It's a punk rock festival. That means we're going to play ... in the wrong key," declared Guided by Voices singer Robert Pollard during his band's sturdy, hook-infused rock set featuring acrobatic kicks, monster choruses and a sexy girl delivering between-song lighted cigarettes to guitarist Mitch Mitchell.
But Pollard missed the point. As anyone who roamed downtown's Los Angeles State Historic Park on Saturday could see, punk no longer means inept, either on a musical or festival level. It means being inspired and maybe a little irrational, like festival founders Sean Carlson, Phil Hoelting and Keith Morris. It means realizing strengths and weaknesses. It means pushing at the edges like L.A.-based instrumental Nosaj Thing, who fused the deep, penetrating bass of dubstep with touches of skewed Aphex Twin breakbeat rhythms to create architecturally sophisticated sound structures as solid as they were abrasive. Or it means setting up gear in the crowd like electronic/serialist/rhythmatist Deacon to make sounds so driving and strobing that the level of crowd surfing reached Nirvana-like proportions. [LA Times]

"At Central Park Summerstage, 10,000% humidity. So damp. Band (UK's Friendly Fires) is dripping like undersea creatures." - Moishe Friedman
Friendly Fires headlined a free and at-capcity Central Park Summerstage show yesterday (8/7) with Cults and The Naked and Famous. Friendly Fires played a pretty even mix of material from their debut and its recently released followup Pala (full setlist below). Cults, who will probably be able to headline their own Summerstage show next summer, opened the show two days after they played Lollapalooza.
The Naked and Famous, who are already headlining Webster Hall on October 27 with The Chain Gang of 1974 and White Arrows, and playing a sold out MHOW show on 8/12 with Winter Gloves, just added an 8/13 Brooklyn Bowl show with a Yeasayer DJ set. Tickets are on sale now if you're into that kind of thing. All dates are listed below.

Cults at House of Vans (more by Andrew St. Clair)
As mentioned, 120 Minutes is returning to MTV2. To celebrate, MTV will host an invite-only launch party in NYC on Tuesday (7/19) at Bowery Electric (6pm doors). 120 Minutes host, Matt Pinefield, will hold a Q&A at 6:30 and then Cults will perform.
(Bowery Electric is also where the final RXP-sponsored show will take place two days later.)
Though the 120 Minutes event is invite-only, we have 2 pairs of tickets you can win. Contest details are below.
Cults kick off their tour with Guards & Writer two days later in Canada. Cults' next public NYC show is a free one at Central Park Summerstage with Friendly Fires and The Naked and Famous on August 7th. Cults then tour with Foster the People and Reptar, though they're mysteriously not on the NYC show at Terminal 5 (for now?).

new Cults video & pics from the No Age, HEALTH, Cults & Ceremony show @ House of Vans (which opens again Thursday)

Ceremony @ House of Vans
Cults @ House of Vans
To be clear, the below video is NOT the latest from Integrity. Actually, it is the latest video from the much more serene Cults, who uses "Go Outside" from their debut LP to soundtrack clips of the Jim Jones cult and the surrounding compound. Sick shit guys... thats a compliment.
"To tell the story of Cults' hauntingly beautiful track, "Go Outside", I was inspired to bring the band inside the world of Jim Jones' famous religious cult, Peoples Temple, and the eventual tragedy in Jonestown. Fortunately, when exploring the feasibility of this video I became acquainted with Fielding M. McGehee III, an expert on Peoples Temple history and the primary researcher for the Jonestown Archive. It is thanks to him and his encouragement that I was able to take on this project and through his support gained access to over two and half hours of home videos showing Peoples Temple in Jonestown." - [director Isaiah Seret]Cults played House of Vans on June 30th as part of a killer (not in a Jim Jones-way) lineup that included new-Matador-signees Ceremony, HEALTH, and No Age. The show was packed and bonkers from the beginning with a full-on mosh pit breaking out for opener Ceremony who were followed by Cults who in turn filled in the large warehouse with less-violently acting people. HEALTH and No Age followed. Pictures are in this post and many more of them are below.
House of Vans is basically this super large sweet warehouse that is sometimes used for skateboarding with a big stage for the bands. It sounded good and there was plenty of room for people to see, dance, mingle, and hang out in the courtyard outside which included a bar with FREE BEER, and portapotties. Food too (not sure if that was free).
House of Vans will host a similarly great party on Thursday (7/14, tomorrow), with Superchunk headlining and OFF!/Lemuria providing support. RSVP is still open.
OFF!, Superchunk, HEALTH and No Age all play the Pitchfork Fest in Chicago this weekend.
Off! also just released a new live video. The whole 37 seconds of it is also below...

Descendents at FFFFest (more by Tim Griffin)
Much like last year, FYF Fest 2011 is poppin' off with some incredible bands, many of whom recently reunited. This year the LA fest will host a coveted Descendents appearance, a Death From Above 1979 show, Guided By Voices, another Kid Dynamite reunion, The Dead Milkmen, Explosions in the Sky, the return of The Weakerthans and many, many notable others. Full lineup is below. The show goes down at 1st and Main in downtown Los Angeles on September 3rd. Tickets are on sale.
Future Islands plays FYF Fest and plays Death By Audio in Brooklyn TONIGHT (6/28).
For Kid Dynamite, which features members of Lifetime, Paint it Black and None More Black, the reunion is their first since re-emerging for This is Hardcore last year with Ink & Dagger. The band called it quits in 2000 and reunited in 2005 at CBGB and some other times too. I hope they schedule another NYC show, but it's just LA for now.
This is Hardcore THIS YEAR features an appearance from Ressurection, which also featured Dan Yemin on guitar. Tickets for This is Hardcore 2011, taking place in Philly's Starlight Ballroom, is mostly sold-out, with tickets for the Sunday show still available.
The Descendents appearance at FYFest is one of several dates scheduled for the reunited band, NYC's Roseland, Chicago Riot Fest, and Philly's Riot Fest included. Tickets are still available for the 9/23 Roseland show.
Mister Heavenly will hit the road for a string of dates on the West Coast leading up to FYF Fest. Check out their full tour schedule below, and look for their new LP Out of Love on 8/16 via Sub Pop. Check out "Pineapple Girl" from that record above.
The Death From Above 1979 appearance is one of several slated for the band in the coming months, including a 7/22 appearance at Williamsburg Waterfront. Tickets are still available OR, you can try your hand by winning a pair at our Facebook. The full set of DFA1979 dates are below.
The Weakerthans have a few other dates slated for Europe and Canada in the coming months. Hopefully they add more US dates too. All dates for now are listed below.
A few bands on the FYFest lineup (namely, Cults, Off!, and No Age) will also appear in NYC at the House of Vans this summer, and for FREE. The FYF-presented House of Vans series of shows starts this Thursday (6/30). You just have to RSVP to get in (and maybe get there early).
All Weakerthans, DFA1979, and Mister Heavenly dates, some video, and the full FYF Fest lineup is below.
