Via an email from Mike, Rolling Stone has an article breaking down the youtube video of U2 playing Live Aid. It is a little ridiculous of all the particulars that are described, but there are some gems of info in there. I have frequently rewatched Queen’s Live Aid performance (and you should too), but I think the entire show should be rewatched to see what other acts I’ve been sleeping on, cause this performance is great:
Not an excited post, but I was just telling Austin how I used to think that Yelawolf was a comedy rap artist when I originally heard this song:

Oooh, thats some good satire:

Hurray for the Riff Raff is a band I first heard about from Rachel. Their song Look Out Mama is great but can get old fairly quickly with the repetitive yodeling. Well they have a new cd with a great video for a song that is now also stuck in my head, I Know It’s Wrong:
They are playing a free show at Millenium Park on July 7 if anyone is interested.

Thanks, Maria.
