We couldn't get enough of them. Their songs were our soundtrack, and we laughed, danced, cried and loved along with them. They flashed across our radio and TV burning brightly — but where have they been lately? As you'll find out in this regular feature, sometimes the stories behind your favorite songs are more interesting than the hits themselves.
Who?: City High
Biggest hit: "What Would You Do" (2001)
Why do I know that name?: If you watched the 11th season of "The Real World" from Chicago or remember the mama-drama smash "What Would You Do," you'll recall that the tune was sung by a Fugees-like trio called City High who quickly blew up and then disappeared almost as fast. The group, comprised of singer/rappers Ryan Toby, Robby Pardlo and Claudette Ortiz, originally came together as a duo featuring solo singers/songwriters Toby and Pardlo, who were signed to Fugees member Wyclef Jean's Booga Basement imprint. "It was sort of like 'Making the Band,' " said Toby of the duo's origin. "Wyclef put us together. We all went to the same high school, but not at the same time. I met Robby when I was a senior and he was coming in as a sophomore, and when he was a senior, Claudette came in as a freshman. We didn't meet until after high school and we started working together through a mutual friend who was managing Robby."
After Pardlo signed a solo deal with Jean, Toby was brought in to write songs for the album, and because Jean knew he could sing from his small supporting role in Sister Act II, he suggested the two form a K-Ci & JoJo-like group. By chance, Ortiz was brought in to sing the hook on "What Would You Do," and the rest is history.
The "new Fugees": "I was like, why is she singing the hook? But when 'Clef heard her, he was like, 'Who's that girl?' And when he saw her he fell in love and they were like, 'You could be the next Fugees!' " Toby recalled. "What Would You Do" first popped up on the soundtrack to the 1999 Eddie Murphy movie "Life," and then was included on the band's eponymous 2001 debut with a new mix that interpolated bits of Dr. Dre's "The Next Episode." The unlikely hit about a woman who becomes a stripper to make money to feed her kid was a top-10 smash and was quickly followed by another top-20 single, "Caramel," on which Ortiz sang lead. A third single, "City High Anthem," didn't hit as big. "We were blowing up pretty fast," Toby said. "But we were three solo artists that were put into a group situation. It was successful and rolling along, but there was still that thing where everyone wanted their solo careers. It started to take a toll on us, and with the rigorous schedule and being with each other 24 hours a day we decided we had to go our separate ways before we wanted to knock each other's heads off."
An end … and a new beginning: The band appeared in a series of mini commercials/ music videos promoting 2002's "The Real World: Chicago" and then quietly disbanded a year later. But that wasn't the end for Toby and Ortiz, who got married and started a family shortly after. Toby — who co-wrote the hits "Miami" for Will Smith and "Caught Up" for Usher, as well as two songs on Mary J. Blige's The Breakthrough — has completed work on his solo album, Soul of a Songwriter, which he plans to release later this year on his own label. Ortiz has finished work on her self-titled solo debut, due this spring on Interscope, which features tracks co-written by Toby and such hitmakers as Bryan-Michael Cox, Dre & Vidal and the Trackmasters, with guest spots from Fabolous and the Game. Though he hasn't spoken to Pardlo since the group broke up, Toby said his old bandmate is back in New Jersey working on music and producing.
The moral: "Success isn't worth risking a friendship and peace of mind," said Toby. "We got lucky because we got the exposure and we got to travel and sell records and make money and then part ways and go back to our solo careers."
Who?: Crazy Town
Biggest hit: "Butterfly" (2001)
Why do I know that name?: Fewer acts in recent memory looked like less likely pop-pin-up material than the tattooed and pierced club kids that made up Hollywood's Crazy Town. Formed by rapper/producers Seth "Shifty Shellshock" Binzer and Bret "Epic" Mazur in 1995 out of an earlier group called Brimstone Sluggers, the band eventually morphed into a collective that was equally influenced by punk rock, hip-hop, pop and old-school metal. Mazur, whose father was once Billy Joel's manager, went to high school with Ice Cube and House of Pain's Everlast and Danny Boy, and began making beats at a young age, working on records by Eazy-E, Bell Biv DeVoe, Prince and MC Lyte, briefly serving as House of Pain's DJ and helping put together and produce the first album by the Black Eyed Peas. As nü-metal bands like Limp Bizkit were ruling the charts, the duo hatched their idea for a group that blended rock and hip-hop in a different way, bringing in a group of backing musicians that included Doug "Faydoedeelay" Miller on bass, guitarists Rust Epique and Anthony "Trouble" Valli, turntablist DJ AM and James "JBJ" Bradley J. on drums.
"Butterfly" to the top: The group's 1999 debut, The Gift of Game, was produced by friend and nü-metal go-to guy Josh Abraham (Orgy, Limp Bizkit) and featured special guests KRS-One and dancehall toaster Mad Lion. While the first two singles, "Toxic" and "Darkside," failed to connect, the third, the smooth pop-rap hybrid "Butterfly," along with its cartoony punk-girl-nymph video, became one of the biggest-selling singles of the year. "We were on the road for a year and a half at the point that 'Butterfly' hit," said Mazur while driving to a recording session in Los Angeles recently. "When it went #1 in 15 countries we were in Germany, and pretty much everywhere else in the world we were known for more than that song, but in the U.S. it was 'Butterfly' except for some kids who knew us from the second stage at Ozzfest." While they had worked hard to earn their success, several of the group's members had debilitating drug habits and the pressure to follow up "Butterfly" marked the beginning of the end.
Darkhorse loses the race: "We were more than 'Butterfly,' and when the second record came out and it wasn't hip-hop crossover like that song the label didn't know what to do with it," said Mazur of 2002's more rock-oriented Darkhorse, which found Kraig "Squirrel" Tyler replacing Epique on guitar (Epique would die of a heart attack at the age of 35 in 2004) and former Shuvel drummer Kyle Hollinger taking over for Bradley. Despite a guest guitar solo from Weezer's Rivers Cuomo on the single "Hurt You So Bad," the group had trouble regaining whatever street cred they had left. "Everyone seemed to love the album, and then our management signed Shania Twain, we came back from Europe and it was almost like the record was dead before it started." Because "Butterfly" had gotten so big, the group's fears that it would define its career came true. Though they were really tight before, success began pulling them apart and Mazur said they realized they were not what they had set out to be. "It's a lot easier to manage working on your own than as part of a band with six people," Mazur said of the group's acrimonious dissolution in 2003. "It's like having six ex-wives."
What now?: Mazur and Tyler have gone back to producing under the name the Pharmacy, with two songs on the recent Plain White T's album and an upcoming debut they wrote and produced for a singer named Rama Duke. Binzer, whose poppy 2004 solo debut, Happy Love Sick, was a flop, scored a dance hit with his vocals on the 2002 Paul Oakenfold tune "Starry Eyed Surprise," has completed an album under the name Cherry Lane and has been performing around Los Angeles in his new band, Porno Punks. DJ AM has become a staple of the tabloids, getting more attention for his exploits dating Nicole Richie and Mandy Moore than his turntable skills, though he has several residencies and reportedly commands more than $20,000 for a three-hour set.
The moral: "It's not like we live in the past and think about what could have been," Mazur said. "We were lucky to have the success we had and we got to see the entire world and had a #1 hit. If it had been handled right, maybe we'd still be together. But after going through that experience, I'm happy with where I am in my life."

Bill Rauhauser, 95, has been named the 2014 Kresge Eminent Artist. / Carlos Diaz
Bill Rauhauser, 95, says he used to walk around Detroit 'keeping an eye open waiting for something significant to happen.' Rauhauser is the sixth Kresge Eminent Artist Award winner named since the prize honoring a local individual's professional achievements and cultural contributions was first given in 2008.
Fellowship applications
Kresge Arts in Detroit is accepting applications for its fellowship program in the areas of dance/music and film/theater. The fellowships come with a no-strings-attached award of $25,000. The deadline to apply is Jan. 31. More info is at www.kresgeartsindetroit.org.
Past winners
Past Kresge Eminent Artist winners include visual artist Charles McGee, trumpet player Marcus Belgrave, poet and playwright Bill Harris, poet and publisher Naomi Long-Madgett and composer and Michigan Opera Theatre artistic director David DiChiera.
Bill Rauhauser, 95, says he may be a retired educator and doesn't take photos nearly as often as he used to, but he's busy meeting up with his former students and scanning and printing his past film collection of approximately 10,000 negatives. / Undated photo by Bill Rauhauser
At 95 years old and with a photography career spanning more than six decades, theres not much Detroit native Bill Rauhauser hasnt seen. But then he got a call last month telling him that hed been chosen to receive the Kresge Foundations prestigious Eminent Artist Award and the $50,000 prize that goes with it.
That was the biggest surprise of all, Rauhauser said Wednesday morning during a phone conversation from his home and photography studio in Southfield.
Being chosen for this is really important to me, he added. Ive had a great, full life, but things have been opening up recently. This takes it to another level.
The award, which will be announced officially today, is generally considered the top annual honor bestowed upon a metro Detroit artist. Its $50,000 purse is part of the Troy-based foundations commitment to local arts and culture. Over six years, Kresge has doled out $2.5 million to 90 visual, performing and literary artists living in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties, both through its Eminent Artist selection and annual fellows program. It also funds a variety of arts groups and organizations.
Rauhausers iconic black-and-white photographs shot mostly on the streets of Detroit have been displayed at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. They are currently on display at the Carl Hammer Gallery in Chicago.
The University of Detroit graduate also has shown his work and curated exhibitions at the Detroit Institute of Arts, where he serves as artist adviser for the board of directors of the department of prints, drawings and photographs. Over the years, Ive just walked around Detroit keeping an eye open waiting for something to happen, something significant, he said. And I loved every minute of it.
His photos are known for featuring natural angles and framing, a storytellers approach and the black-and-white contrasts that can be hallmarks of both fine art and documentary photography.
Rauhauser said that one of his lifes greatest joys has been taking the lessons hes learned as a street photographer into the classroom, where he shared his imagery, experiences and philosophies for more than 30 years with photography students attending the College for Creative Studies. He also taught at Wayne State University and the University of Michigan.
Bill Rauhuaser doesnt just make art with his camera, he makes it with his eyes, his head and his heart, Michelle Perron, Kresge Arts in Detroit director, said via e-mail.
Gilda Snowden, a professor of fine arts at CCS and a former Kresge artist fellow, said she couldnt have hoped for a better recipient than her former CCS colleague.
I have seen how he influenced every photographer around here, and the fact that hes still so vital and active is a testament to his eagerness to make sure that the photography scene here is one thats vigorous, said Snowden, who was one of nine members who unanimously voted for Rauhauser to become the sixth Eminent Artist since the Kresge Arts in Detroit launched the program in 2008.
Snowden said that there were some other extremely talented artists the advisory council looked at, but they had all agreed Rauhausers achievements as an artist and influence as an educator made him the perfect choice.
Every photographer I talked to has said that hes meant so much to them, Snowden said. His direct or indirect presence has shown so many people here they can make a life of this, that they can be an artist, too. And, hes still always out there.
Rauhauser said he isnt always out on the streets of Detroit shooting these days, but hes staying busy planning an upcoming exhibit at the Scarab Club, going through nearly 10,000 negatives he never previously had time to process.
Im not interested in the formal aspects of photography, you take that as it comes, he said. What Im looking for are photographs of people who are engaged in some kind of activity that appeals to me. What appeals to me varies from time to time, but thats what Im looking for.

In 1957, Jack Kirby returned to DC Comics to draw the Green Arrow feature that ran in ADVENTURE COMICS and WORLD'S FINEST COMICS, pitting the Emerald Archer and his sidekick, Speedy, against a plethora of foes. At the same time, Kirby kept busy with work on DC's mystery titles. These short tales spotlighted extraterrestrials and earthly monsters, nuclear threats and super-intelligent animals, magic wishes gone wrong and cities lost beneath the seas, challenging Kirby's ever-fertile imagination in every story. Now, for the first time, DC Comics collects all of Kirby's many stories from the pages of HOUSE OF MYSTERY, HOUSE OF SECRETS, TALES OF THE UNEXPECTED, MY GREATEST ADVENTURE, ALL-STAR WESTERN, ADVENTURE COMICS, WORLD'S FINEST COMICS, as well as a trio of 1940s stories from REAL FACT COMICS.

I have heard that you participate in an annual
basketball game in Baton Rouge.
The annual charity basketball game between the
House and Senate started out as a good way for me
to keep my weight down with regular practice at
LSU once a week, but soon turned into an excellent
way to develop relationships that help me pass
This year's game went into overtime before the
Senate won by one point, which isn't bad for the
smaller, older side of the legislature. In the past,
I would gain an average of 10 pounds during a
normal legislative session, but, in the last 4 years, I
have lost pounds during the session.
What other special rewards have you enjoyed
during the past year?
This has been a good year. I have been given
the Defender of Life Award, Outstanding Family
Champion Award, Nurse-Family Partnership
Legislator of the Year, Outstanding Legislator for
School Based: Health Centers, Life & Liberty Award,
and, next month, I will receive the Senator of the
Year Award by the Child Care Association.
I suppose you can tell, my focus lately has been
on economic development and child enrichment
For a senator with such a large district, you
seem to make a lot of ribbon cuttings and events.
What is your secret? Do you have a twin brother
somewhere to help you?
That is funny, but there is no twin and no secret.
I just know how difficult the business world is
today, and I appreciate anyone who tries to go into
business, whether large or small. It is important
to be there and show my support for these
businesses. I am a big friend of our non-profits and
seriously try to support them monetarily and with
my attendance at their events whenever possible;
we need them now more than ever.
It has been said you are a warrior when it comes
to helping your constituents. Can you explain?
When it comes to helping people, my first rule
is to never ask where a person lives. If they have a
problem, I try to help. Secondly, I try to go to the
people; my family says that Wal-Mart is my second
office. You would be surprised to find out howmany
people will come up and talk to me there more
so than anywhere else. It is so bad that no one
in my family wants to got shop with me because
a quick stop usually turns into an hour. We laugh
about it at my house, but they totally understand
my commitment; they know I believe government
should try to find a way to help people if it can.
Luckily, my relationships in Baton Rouge help me
help others who need help.
I suppose you can tell, my focus lately has been on
economic development and child enrichment programs."

Netizens get fired up over Ryu Seung Ryong's apparently degrading remarks about Suzy
Another controversy has burgeoned recently, involving miss A"s Suzy and a few blameless words that were uttered by skill of her "Dorihwaga" co-star Ryu Seung Ryong at the movie show off that used to be held back on November 4.
There turns out to be no genuine injury at the back of the words the actor acknowledged about Suzy; in fact, he changed into complimenting Suzy on her bright and cheery persona. However, what he said rubbed some other folks the incorrect way. Ryu Seung Ryong had said, "The surroundings on set was noticeably other when Suzy was there in comparison to when she wasn"t. simply by being there, she inflamed us with her happiness, aegyo, and the distinctive feature that a feminine actress will have to lift at the set. On Pepero Day, she talented the entire body of workers members, all 100-something of them, with Pepero and handwritten notes." At the time, what the actor said was just taken as a funny story and those hadn"t idea too much of it.
However, what Ryu Seung Ryong had just said in the instant have become a controversy, as some individuals claimed the actor"s remark was degrading women. the problem will have died down on its own yet Go Kyung Pyo added gas to the fireplace with the rantings he left on social media.
Go Kyung Pyo wrote on his social media account on November 19, "What more or less nonsense is this. Will somebody provide an explanation for this scenario to me? whilst i used to be filming for "The Treacherous," I went to talk over with the set of "Dorihwaga" just to mention hi and Suzy was simply so lovely and great and I felt that everybody there loved her. Just how do you will want interpret what Ryu Seung Ryong said for you to leave comments like that? How is existence in society imaginable for individuals like you? Someone please enlighten me. It form of feels like it"s most commonly girls who are commenting but do girls realize what"s going on? That reaction? Do you actually feel that Suzy is a neatly of happiness? Did what Ryu Seung Ryong say truly make him look like a pervert?"
Go Kyung Pyo was said to have went backward and forward with the folk on his social media, arguing with them over the issue. Although his social media account is his own space, his excessive words are under no circumstances aiding the case. Netizens who read Move Kyung Pyo"s social media post pointed out, "Go Kyung Pyo is the larger hassle here. he's making the factor worse."
Go Kyung Pyo"s firm has stepped ahead on November 20 to make a statement relating to this matter, telling Daily Sports, "We are discussing the issue with Go Kyung Pyo. We are sorting the matter out internally."

He is currently enthusiastic about the movie "The Face Reader." "I watched it about 10 times," he says. "I was hoping to select up some guidelines from Song Kang Ho's acting yet the variation between our skills is too great. Typically I don't watch a film I've already seen, but I watched this one over and over."
Lee Seung Gi wraps up with his mind about his co-actor Shim Eun Kyung. "When I first met her, she was the shy young lady that I had expected. She's other from the alternative actresses I've worked with before. When she makes a speciality of acting she's like a fully various person. Whilst you observe her scenes, her strength is incredible."
'The Sound of a Flower' Ryoo Seung-ryong mentions 'virtues of an actress'

This remark used to be broadcast on the MBC television display "Video Journey" and is now experiencing a rear blast.
Several netizens say, "So actresses will have to be charming and make all and sundry happy?", "What bar is this?", "I don"t wish to watch the film anymore" and such.
Others say, "It"s just a joke", "He"s just pronouncing Suzy makes the complete lot feel better", "Everyone"s overreacting" and more.

'Veteran' Director Ryoo Seung Wan Discusses The Casting Of Yoo Ah In, Hwang Jung Min And The Screenplay [EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW]
(Photo : CJ Entertainment ) KDramaStars: What inspired the screenplay for "Veteran?" Were the characters of Do Cheol and Tae Oh based within reality?
Ryoo Seung Wan: The main events that happen, in the film, actually come from several real life incidents that happened in Korean. Because we needed to dramatize these things, the story took another form, in itself. The lead character [Do Cheol] and the villain [Tae Oh] were both inspired by real people. In the case of the character of the detective, a lot of that him comes from my previous interviews with cops and detectives, for previous projects. In the detective, a lot of aspects of the actor, Hwang Jung Min, are reflected in that character.
The character of Tae Oh was inspired by reality, but its hard to meet that type of person. We had to satisfy ourselves with meeting the people who surround that type of person. Tae Oh is a figment of my imagination, based off their accounts. I wanted to make a film that maximized the thrill and exhilaration that you can experience cinematically, even if it is based on reality.
KDramaStars: How long did it take to create the film, from preproduction to post?
Ryoo Seung Wan: I started working on Veteran right after the film, The Berlin File was released. That was in 2012. It took about three years.
The actual filming took about three and a half months. The majority of production was spent within pre and post production.
KDramaStars: "Veteran" critiques the excess of conglomerate heirs through Tae Oh, but the movie racked up close to $90 million USD in ticket sales. Did you expect Veteran to become a blockbuster hit? What were some of the responses from audiences in Korea?
Ryoo Seung Wan: I didnt expect audiences to respond to the film so favorably. But I do feel like there was a looming sentiment over the exploitation of conglomerate groups that was very relevant to the masses. I think this film touches about that collective unconscious.
KDramaStars: I really enjoyed the juxtaposition between Hwang Jung Min, as the hardboiled detective and Yoo Ah In as Tae Oh. Can you describe the casting process of the film?
Ryoo Seung Wan: When I was writing the script, the main character of the detective has a lot of traits held by the actor, Hwang Jung Min. When I was writing the screenplay, I wrote the character specifically with him in mind. If he had declined the role, I feel like this film may not have been made.
In the case of Tae Oh, who is a pretty villainous character, a lot of actors declined because they were sensitive about the role reflecting badly on [their image]. I met Yoo Ah In during the Busan International Film Festival. We were talking about our next projects and thats when I gave him the screenplay.
Yoo Ah In was known to the Korean public as having a childlike image and was viewed as a healthy, young man. At the time, he wanted to deviate from those types of roles and he wanted to try out something new. It was a fortunate case where the requirements of the film matched up with the actors desires to try something different.
KDramaStars: Crime procedurals often portray policeman and detectives as flawed or having moral ambiguity. What are your thoughts on the clear moral compass of Do Cheol, a detective who seems lax in the beginning, but becomes obsessed with bringing Tae Oh to justice?
Ryoo Seung Wan: I feel like the current cinema trend, in terms of crime films is way too complicated. The sort of films that I loved and thought were exhilarating, when I was young were movies that had clear cut morals. A good example would be the films in the 80s, in the U.S., that deal with detectives and crime. When you look closer, within all of those movies, the [detectives] have their own personal problems. I feel like this film differs from others in the crime genre in that it deals with human beings relationships to one another.
The main character, the event he is investigating is not even under his precinct. He doesnt personally have anyone who is involved. The reason he [Do Cheol] becomes involved with this case is because he received a phone call that he didnt take. If he had received that call, that person wouldnt have been involved in that type of accident. That type of guilt is what motivates this character. Ultimately, I feel like this is a story about the morals that come between a people.
KDramaStars: The film reminded me of an 80s police movie, not a buddy cop film, but one where the police have a great dynamic with one another. Also, Do Cheol is one cop who is trying to take on the challenge of bringing down corruption. Was this what you meant about your previous comment regarding American films in the 80s?
Ryoo Seung Wan: Yes, movies like Beverly Hills Cop, Lethal Weapon, 48 Hours, Stakeout, and even Diehard. I feel like the value of those films is that at first glance they seem like movies that are geared for box office success. But I think they try to present a set of values or morals that they want to pass on to the next generation. These films have a very classic feel to them like John Fords westerns. These types of movies try to deal with what is right and what is wrong, which may seem naive and idealistic, but that is the value of these films.
There are characters like those in Raymond Chandlers novels that are morally ambiguous. While they may be attractive or appealing, I feel like there is a need for clear characters. I feel like the current trend, in audience responses, is that people tend to like villains more than good people. From an audience perspective, I wanted to root for a good person, in the film.
KDramaStars: Your work has spanned almost every aspect of film, ranging from directing and screenwriting Veteran to appearing as an extra in Rough Play. What do you think is most difficult job in the Korean film industry?
Ryoo Seung Wan: Filmmaking, regardless of the environment you are in, is always going to be hard. I feel like there is no such thing as the best environment or an ideal one [in filmmaking]. It can be very difficult. Every aspect has its own set of challenges. Essentially, you are creating something out of thin air. If I were to pick one thing, it would be when you have to come up with new and creative ideas for things. The right to have freedom of expression is crucial, but Im unsure of whether this is being achieved in Korean society, today.
KDramaStars: There have been rumors of sequels to both Veteran and The Berlin File. What are your thoughts on Korean franchise films versus Hollywood? What is your next project?
Ryoo Seung Wan: To clarify, the next project Im working on will not be a sequel to The Berlin File. That will be an in-depth film, after I complete my next project.
I feel like its kind of hard to compare the franchise films of Korea with the U.S. because the way that cinema has evolved and its history are vastly different [between the two nations]. To be specific, with the Bond series [007] in the 60s, the U.S. already had a solid history of filmmaking. In Korea, the 60s were when filmmaking was just budding. If you look at the sheer volume or size of the industries, they are vastly different. It hasnt been a long time since the Korean film industry evolved into what it is, today. If there are any sort of franchise films that will come out of Korea, it will be from now on.
A lot of young filmmakers in Korea, including myself, want to make these kind of franchise films and want to be viewers of these types of movies. For example, I do have thoughts of developing Veteran into a franchise. I think we have to see what happens, environmentally, for these franchise films to succeed. I feel that two things need to be present for franchise films, the industry needs to be secure and there needs to be a secure star system. Having franchise films in Korean cinema is actually a sign that the industry is booming. So, Im pretty positive that we will have them, in the future.

"A Facebook search for her name yields well over 100 results, but singer-songwriter Lindsay Fuller is anything but generic. The Seattle transplant uses her deep-South upbringing as inspiration for brooding folk songs about love, loneliness, and small-town life—perfect for someone whose voice is as gritty and affecting as hers. Girl's got soul—albeit a heavy one. When you hear her acoustic melodies, it's a no-brainer that Fuller's biggest influence is the venerable Gillian Welch. But given her penchant for darker matters, she's really more like Fiona Apple with an acoustic guitar." -Seattle Weekly

As previous Smallville spoilers have revealed, a couple of major characters are set to return in the near future.
Before this year is through, both Chloe and Lionel Luther will make an appearance on The CW hit.
But the show is also on the lookout for a new individual to leave a major mark, as multiple sources confirm Smallville is casting for Clark's next nemesis.
This recurring villain will begin to realize his special powers after a freak accident, at first idolozing the Man of Steel but then giving in to a darkness inside him and squaring off against the show's protagonist. Sounds intriguing. Does anyone come to mind for the role?

"Sing along," Thom Yorke told the audience at the Henry Fonda Theater on Sunday night, in case "I forget the words." He didn't, and he and Radiohead proceeded to give the crowd an incandescent version of "Fake Plastic Trees," the rousing second song in a show that was the hottest ticket in town -- and a noble one at the same time.Radiohead's Haiti benefit on Sunday night raised a reported $573,000 for Oxfam Haiti. The band took a break from recording their eighth album to play the show. The minimum bid for tickets, which were sold via auction, was $475.
One of the most esteemed bands in the world has been in Los Angeles recording new music (their presence has been one of the worst kept "secrets" in recent music history), and after the staggering calamity in Haiti, the band was inspired to stage an impromptu benefit show.
The highlight? Pick one. Perhaps the solo piano rendition of "Everything in It's Right Place." The piano was pushed center-stage for Yorke, who seemed to be invigorated by the low-pressure forum and, perhaps, by the heartfelt ethos.
"It's like a memory exercise," Yorke said of a show that dipped into the band's seven-album catalog. [LA Times]
Videos and their set list are below...

Thom Yorke, Flea & band played the Echoplex and Orpheum (pics & setlist) -- one more show in LA tonight
photos by Darren Kim
Entering the stage to a standing ovation, [Thom] Yorke began at a standup piano facing away from the audience, pushing out the chunky chords that announce "The Eraser," the title track from his 2006 solo album. However, as his elite backing band kicked in -- Red Hot Chili Peppers' icon Flea on bass, Joey Waronker (Beck, R.E.M.) on drums, Mauro Refosco (David Byrne, Bebel Gilberto) on percussion, longtime Radiohead/Yorke producer Nigel Godrich on guitar/synths/laptop -- Yorke began to shake his tailfeather with aplomb. Strapping on a guitar, Yorke and Flea began their own punk-funk hootenanny, grooving in unison as they vamped on an angular disco riff; behind them, their bandmates built up waves of propulsive percussion that evoked more an LCD Soundsystem show than, say, "Karma Police."The photos in this post are from last night's show at L.A's Orpheum (10/4). Thom Yorke's new (super?) group debuted at the much-smaller Echoplex two days prior (10/2). Yorke, Flea and the rest of the band still have one more show tonight (10/5), again at the Orpheum.
At both the Echoplex and Orpheum, Yorke & co. played The Eraser album in its entirety, which proved a clever conceit. The Eraser is the ultimate bedroom electronica opus, its synthetic beats influenced by dubstep and IDM starkly rhythmic. In the live setting, however, the songs, taken out of the computer realm by virtuoso musicians with such passion, suddenly became transformed into downright euphoria.
As deep, dark, and meaningful as Yorke's songs are, in this context they also proved righteously fun. This was different than a Radiohead show -- the sight of Flea doing his characteristic bop onstage alongside Yorke confirmed that -- but it proved equally sublime: separate, yes, but perhaps equal. Solo, Yorke proved cathartic in his own way: a Radiohead show might make you weep, but Yorke and his band of merry rhythm makers will shake your body down to the ground. [Rolling Stone]

Daft Punk's first album had helped refresh house music in the mid 1990s; the second went further, rewriting electronic pop's pleasure principles to such a degree that when it came out a lot of people thought Discovery must be a put-on. They took the joy in the record for irony. Rather, the band had simply plunged into the raw popstuff of their 70s childhoods, from AOR to disco, Buggles to Manilow, rock to robotics. They wanted their listeners to get the rush of context-free delight they had hearing music as kids, and on "Aerodynamic" and "Digital Love" they succeeded wildly, dissolving a decade-plus of dance music good taste. And not all of Discovery looked back. The middle of the album is house music as string theory, with the duo finding dimensions of pleasure coiled within the tiniest loops: "Crescendolls" releases an awesome, gleeful energy by repeatedly triggering one five-second sample.Daft Punk grabbed the #3 spot on Pitchfork's list of the Top 200 albums of the 2000s (now fully announced) (yesterday they were only up to #21). The top 20 are also listed below...
Discovery was simply the decade's best good-times record, with Daft Punk as pyramid-toting party wizards and the chipmunk Kraftwerk of "Harder Better Faster Stronger" their anthem. But this most celebratory of records has a bittersweet streak, too: Daft Punk know that a rush always carries the risk of exhaustion. Perhaps the album's most underappreciated track is the sad but gorgeous "Short Circuit", a three-minute robot graveyard of crumbled transistors and dying LEDs. But from Romanthony's first blissful, vocoded shout of "one more time!" the dominant emotion on Discovery is joy. A joy that wasn't afraid to be sentimental and funny as well as hard and futuristic, and is all the better for that. When a generation looks back and tries to catch a fuzzy hold of the music that made them happy this decade, Daft Punk's will be top of the list. --Tom Ewing [Pitchfork]

The backstory has been repeated so often with such insistence that three years later it's become a mythic tall tale: Guy breaks up band in North Carolina, decamps to the wilds of Wisconsin, makes a record originally intended to be heard by almost nobody. But what happened next is much more interesting: After Justin Vernon made 500 copies and distributed them himself, the album is picked up by indie juggernaut Jagjaguwar, gets big props from Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold, holds up to hundreds of repeat listens, and get thousands of festivalgoers singing along solemnly to "The Wolves". Quiet and folkily ambient, For Emma, Forever Ago is an impassioned cry too compelling not to become heard. From those opening strums to the "Flume" to the closing hums of "Re: Stacks", the album communicates acute loneliness and nurses a pain that has dulled but obviously not died-- which is perhaps our own romantic view of ourselves. It's easy to get caught up in the stories surrounding this out-of-nowhere album, but the music pulls you back to the real world. --Stephen M. DeusnerThat's Pitchfork's description of the 29th best album of the decade (part of the top 200), Bon Iver's For Emma, Forever Ago. They will announce the top 20 on Friday. What will they be? In Rainbows got #21. Vampire Weekend was #51. Outkast put out the best song.
Thom Yorke has 2, possibly 3, shows coming up in LA.
Bon Iver recently played in a graveyard in LA.
"Thom Yorke and Flea's new supergroup will play a Radiohead song at their upcoming debut gigs in Los Angeles., it's been revealed.LA Weekly is also reporting that their might be a secret Thom Yorke show at the Echoplex this Friday night, October 2.
The as-yet-unnamed band's drummer Mauro Refosco told Brazilian website Abril.com they will play Thom Yorke's 'The Eraser' album in its entirety, four new songs and one Radiohead track at the shows on Sunday and Monday (October 4 & 5).
It's rumoured the band will air Thom Yorke's song he wrote for the Twilight New Moon soundtrack, 'Hearing Damage', as one of the "new" songs." [gigwise]
The new Twilight soundtrack, as you may have heard, also includes tracks by many familiar names including Death Cab For Cutie, Muse, Sea Wolf, Grizzly Bear & Beach House's Victoria Legrand, Bon Iver & St. Vincent, and Editors...
Speaking exclusively to Gigwise, Editors frontman Tom Smith said: "The films aren't aimed at people our age but I look at the bands that we're next to on that soundtrack and it's just a good thing.Cover art and tracklist below...
"It's not selling out, it's not putting your song on an advert or selling a product.
"It's just being part of something that, to me, as collective seems like a pretty attractive thing."
New Moon is the second instalment of the vampire franchise, which stars British actor Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

'And for like ten minutes she would just do these fucking amazing animal yelps and screams and growling and all this shit.'
Its a beautiful warm Sunday morning at Kutscher's and Wayne Coyne is waiting for me in a golf cart near the main stage. Clad in his trademark light colored suit, I shake his hand and exchange pleasantries. Then he notices that I'm with photographer Ryan Muir.
"You want to take some pictures? Lets head to the pool."
One problem. The pool is separated by a chain-link fence and there is no way around.
"Let's just jump it" Wayne says, but he's already on the other side.
Wayne is a gracious, charismatic ringmaster/shaman who is up for anything, as long as it leaves a lasting impression, much like the lovable oddballs The Flaming Lips that he fronts.
Starting over 25 years ago as an acid-drenched punk band with a Butthole Surfers obsession, The Flaming Lips have aged gracefully into their current role as quirky pop elder statesmen by keeping their punk rock spirit and freak-out tendencies. 1999's The Soft Bulletin began the band's current trajectory towards poignant and epic melodies, which continues with the release of their new LP Embryonic. It impacts record stores on October 13th, and you can listen to it now courtesy of the Colbert Report.
As you probably heard, The Flaming Lips were invited to headline All Tomorrow's Parties New York (ATP NY) as well as curate the final day of shows at the festival this year. We sat with the Oklahoma native on that sunday (9/13), while a team of men in orange jumpsuits (read: The Lips crew) carted around giant lighting sets, trashcans filled with stuffed animals, and yeti costumes....

Radiohead's Phil Selway to release solo album while Phil Collins is recovering so he can hopefully drum again
"Let's see how long it takes BV to mention that Phil Collins will never drum again." - Anonymous
In the UK press today, there appeared some articles about Phil's physical state, with some slightly misleading headlines. Here, in Phil's own words, are how he describes his situation:In other drummers named Phil news, NME reports that "Radiohead drummer Phil Selway has announced that he is set to release a solo album."
"There isn't any drama regarding my 'disability' and playing drums.
Somehow during the last Genesis tour I dislocated some vertebrae in my upper neck and that affected my hands. After a successful operation on my neck, my hands still can't function normally.
"Maybe in a year or so it will change, but for now it is impossible for me to play drums or piano. I am not in any 'distressed' state, stuff happens in life."
Selway, who sings on the album, is currently in the process of recording the as-yet untitled record in his band's Oxfordshire studio.No release date or any more details yet. A video of Phil McKenna playing drums, below...
He enlisted the services of Wilco members Glenn Kotche and Pat Sansone to play on the project, and multi-instrumentalist solo artist Lisa Germano and bass player Sebastian Steinberg have also contributed.

an interview w/ Jonah Matranga of Far (who are back with more tour dates & a new album on Vagrant Records)
by Black Bubblegum
Jonah Matranga & Ian Love at Gershwin Hotel (more by Tim Griffin)
Jonah Matranga of Far/onelinedrawing/New End Original fame has scheduled a solo show at Mercury Lounge on May 21st. Tickets are on sale.
Jonah might be playing that and a few more shows (listed below) solo, but - even more than before - Far is back...
Vagrant Records is proud to announce that Far has signed to the label. The recently reunited quartet is currently wrapping up their fifth full-length release in The Airport studio in Southern California with producer and guitarist Shaun Lopez at the helm and an early spring release date is expected.Far has added a few new West Coast shows in May and June, including one opening for Kings of Leon in Santa Barbara, CA. All dates below, but nothing on the east coast yet.
"We had no idea all this would happen," says vocalist Jonah Matranga. "We were just planning on getting to know each other again and playing a few shows... all of a sudden, the songs are coming, and it feels really good."
In the tail end of last year (while he was here for that Gershwin Hotel show), we caught up with Jonah Matranga and asked him about Far, his solo venture(s), and what it means to be back in lock-step with the guys again. Check out that interview below.
Meanwhile, some of Jonah's bandmates in New End Original are getting their old band back together as well. Split Lip, which became Chamberlain in 1995, will reunite with all original members to play a handful of shows in their native midwest, and eventually, the east coast. Tour dates are below.
The dates coincide with the re-issue of Chamberlain's emo-influential Fate's Got A Driver LP on color vinyl with bonus tracks.
Chamberlain's Fate's Got a Driver delivers more emotion in its 30 minutes than most bands do over the course of a career. The record is thought provoking and musically adventurous, a rare feat for a band whose members were barely past twenty when it was recorded. With nods to the Everyman side of Sunny Day Real Estate and the insistent melodicism of Fugazi, Fate's Got a Driver consistently impresses. It's all the product of lead guitarist Adam Rubenstein's thick, Fugazi-style progressions and David Moore's highly poetic lyrics... An amazing achievement by such a relatively young band. -[allmusic]Jonah discusses Lupe Fiasco, Sepultura, Fort Minor, Radiohead, and more, in the interview below...

The Decemberists' fifth album, The Hazards of Love, is in stores tomorrow, but the self titled debut of Fever Ray (side project of The Knife's Karin Elisabeth Dreijer Andersson) is my favorite new release of the week.
From what I have already heard, I can also recommend Amadou & Mariam's Welcome To Mali, 1990s' Kicks, Harlem Shakes' Technicolor Health, Jeremy Jay's Slow Dance, Mono's Hymn to the Immortal Wind, and Swan Lake's Enemy Mine.
Three Radiohead studio albums have been remastered and are out tomorrow. The Bends, OK Computer, and Pablo Honey all come with a bonus CD of outtakes and rarities, and also are available in deluxe editions that include a DVD.
Aside from the Radiohead remastered editions, the remastered Serge Gainsbourg classic album Histoire de Melody Nelson is wonderfully packaged and lovingly restored (especially the vinyl edition).
What new releases can you recommend? Have I left anything off the list?

This week in Music Licensing (Duffy, Justice, Sonic Youth, Franz Ferdinand, Radiohead, Sea Ray & more...)
by Ryan Barkan
Duffy @ Lollapalooza 2008 (more by Bao Nguyen)
The cola war has been heating up globally in the last couple of months with music as the weapon of choice.
Pepsi's image rebranding campaign, including a new smile-esque logo, launched right after Christmas with a tv commercial featuring The Apples in Stereo song, "Energy". They then went deep during the Super Bowl, dropping a spot featuring Bob Dylan and Will.I.Am singing "Forever Young" as the beverage's new anthem.
Coke counters with a European spot for Diet Coke that features a playful Duffy doing things on her time during an encore break at a concert. In the commercial, she sings a cover of Sammy Davis Jr's "I Gotta Be Me."
When Sara Tate, a senior planner at the London advertising agency Mother, was asked to find a new face for Diet Coke, she knew what she didn't want. "Definitely no rent-a-face," says Tate, whose ad with Duffy will launch on British television, before rolling out across Europe. "We steered clear of yet another glamorous star with a six-figure fee who will promote anything if the price is right. The public is getting smart to that. We wanted someone who is well known, but not hugely famous. Someone who is on the rise, for whom fame is recent enough that they remember what it is like to have a regular life. Duffy was a perfect fit because, although she is extremely successful, she's still incredibly down to earth." [Via Times Online]Duffy has since cleaned up at the Grammys, at the British version of the Grammys, and - per Paul McCartney's request, recorded a cover of his song "Live And Let Die" for the new War Child Heroes comp that is released in the US this week. You may have heard the Beck/Dylan track from the same album, when it was played during the credits of last night's Oscars (more on the Oscars in a second...).
Coke's second attack is from Justice - Coke enlisted the duo along with Ed Banger Records' So_Me to design a glow-in-the-dark bottle and provide the soundtrack, their massive jam "D.A.N.C.E.", to a commercial. The bottle will be available in clubs throughout Europe. See the bottle in the commercial below.
The third assault from the Coke comes in their Full Throttle NHRA spots; three of the five have licensed songs: The Faces has "Blue Moon" by the Mavericks, The Machine kicks it country with Merle Haggard's "Working Man Blues", and Left Behind features Operator Please's "Zero Zero."
The final wave occurred as I was writing this article. A one-two punch during the Oscars with both The Boy Least Likely To's "Be Gentle With Me" and Sea Ray's "Revelry" showing up in Coke spots during the telecast on ABC (no video available yet). For those not familiar with the band, Sea Ray broke up in 2005.

A rumor is going around that Thom Yorke is here and possibly performing, but Men.Style.com says...
I've got some good news and some bad news for all you fashion, music, and fashion music fans. The bad news first: Despite the rumors Twittering around the Interwebs, Thom Yorke will not, in fact, be playing tomorrow's Rag & Bone show. The good news, however, is that the Radiohead singer did "curate" the tunes that'll accompany the models down the runway. Guess he's returning the favor after the nice bomber jacket the lads hooked him up with for the Grammys. (Notably, Lil Wayne also wore the brand last Sunday--who knows, maybe he's hard at work on a playlist for Spring 2010.) In any case, autograph seekers should leave the Sharpies at home, as I'm told Yorke won't even be at the show. (I assume the same's true for Wayne.)In other Thom Yorke
This is the second time Terminator Salvation came up recently. The first was because of Christian Bale freaking out.
Leave more party tips (if you have them) (preferably ones where bands are playing) in the comments.
TMZ can confirm that Chris Brown just entered an LAPD station, where he turned himself in to police.Radiohead did show up the Grammys, as did an even MORE pregnant M.I.A.. Robert Plant and Alison Krauss took best album (for an album that came out on indie label Rounder Records). Video of Radiohead and M.I.A.'s performances, and a list of all winners (including Daft Punk) below...
Chris is being investigated by the LAPD for an alleged domestic violence felony battery that occurred early this morning near Hancock Park in L.A. Police officials said earlier today they may arrest Brown when they found him. Well, now they know where he is.
According to the female victim -- who cops refuse to identify -- she and Chris got into an argument which turned violent. Cops say when they arrived to the scene, Brown had split, but the woman had "visible injuries and identified Brown as her attacker."
Brown and his girlfriend Rihanna were together earlier last night, attending Clive Davis' pre-Grammy party -- and both canceled their scheduled performances at tonight's event.
Brown is currently being interviewed by detectives. [TMZ]
