Sounds Like News

Here's a couple of music stories from around the web over the last couple weeks that caught my attention:

- Bonnaroo will announce the line-up for the 10th anniversary of the music & arts festival on Tues. 2/15.  Tickets go on sale on Sat. 2/19.

- The Grateful Dead announced they would release all 22 shows from their first tour of Europe in 1972.  Europe '72, one of only a couple of official releases from this tour, is a stellar live recording that captured the band at a musical peak, coming off a solid string of releases in Workingman's Dead, American Beauty, and Grateful Dead ("Skull & Roses").  Check out all the details here and watch China Cat Sunflower Jam -> I Know You Rider from the Copenhagen, Denmark stop on the tour below.

- The New Pornographers have a star studded new video for "Moves" which you can check out below.

- Yo La Tango got everyone laughing (or super annoyed) by re-enacting an entire episode of Seinfeld on stage as part of their "Wheel of Chance" tour.  Check out the details and video here.

- TV on the Radio announced a new album, Nine Types of Light, due out this spring.

For Phish fans out there, compare Phish's take on TVONTR's "Golden Age" from Albany in Nov. '09 against the original from Dear Science.

(I'm of the opinion that Phish actually made tribute to TV on the Radio with "If I Told You" from the Party Time companion to Joy, but take a listen and see what you think for yourself.  Yes, the photo sucks but the music is in fact "If I Told You" as performed by Phish.)
