In support of their recent collaboration with Best Coast's Bethany Cosentino, titled 'Go Away," Weezer has released a music video in which frontman Rivers Cuomo uses 'Winder" (a play on Tinder), to woo his online crush. I'm happy to be a part of the club."The reference calls upon Bono's bicycle injury in New York's Central Park last November, as well as guitarist The Edge's fall off stage during the tour's opening night in Vancouver on May 14.Still wearing a cast, Fallon recently suffered a serious injury to his left hand that almost cost him a finger when he fell in his apartment at the end of June
When a major American magazine basically proclaimed that Elvis' "That's All Right" was the de facto start of Rock and Roll (with no other candidates to be considered) and a UK magazine did an end run around sanity by suggesting not the first demo Elvis recording, but the second (which was still a country recording) was the first, I threw up my hands and realized Haley is unlikely to get his due from mainstream media. I'm not sure if these are solo performances or with the Esquire Boys, and I have to take the label's word for the fact they're live because you can't hear any audience sounds

The middle finger was not metaphorical at all when Elvis Costello briefly appeared onstage with his backing band The Attractions during the 2007 ceremony. Members of Blondie added even more bad blood to the 2007 ceremony as a division between founding members Debbie Harry and Chris Stein, and Frank Infante and Nigel Harrison spilled onto the stage
From 1977 to 1992, he released a string of near perfectly crafted and distinct albums, each with its own distinctive sound and each having a tremendous musical influence. And while the band had a distinctive sound due to Ric Ocasek's (and occasionally, Benjamin Orr's) plaintive vocals, catchy harmonies, and Greg Hawkes' keyboards, the reason they rose above all other early 80s synth bands was due to the strength of solid, infectious songwriting

An ambitious undertaking, the film is directed by Bill Pohlad who tidily splits the entire narrative arc into two distinct epochs: the musically fertile period in the 60s that produced Pet Sounds (with Wilson played by Paul Dano) and the fraught psychosis of the 80s-era rebound (with John Cusack as Wilson)
