It's a sad, sad day for the fans of the 4th most popular folk parody duo from New Zealand. Yes, my friends, I'm disheartened to say that Flight Of The Conchords has been canceled from HBO's lineup.
A statement was released from Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement as well as James Bobin, a co-creator and executive producer of the show, which said the following:
We’ve noticed the less we say about the future of the show, the more people want to… Read More

RiO! Band of the Week – Goodbye Beatdown

Friday, December 11th, 2009

Vancouver, BC in Canada is apparently becoming the spot for many of the RiO! Bands of the Week as we've had many from the region and this week is no different. A round of applause for the band Goodbye Beatdown for winning the title this week.

Jawbox performs on Fallon

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

I'll say this about Jimmy Fallon. He may be an annoying bastard but he can definitely bring the music to his show. Perhaps I'll have to watch it more often now. OK too much praising so let's get back to the post.
