Jack White’s Third Man Rolling Record Stores stopping in Chicago

September 21, 2017 | Kevin

Jack White’s Third Man Records with locations in Nashville and Detroit is known for producing physical music releases for hardcore fanatics, but that vinyl party comes to Whicker Park this weekend with a mobile version that is a must-see. Look for the big yellow mobile unit of fun located outside Reckless Records on Milwaukee Avenue this Sunday, September 24 from 2 to 6:30pm. Their approach to music is a throwback but it has this great sense of whimsy and appreciation for music has a tangible form of art that you can experience in a memorable way. Expect some special rare finds and yellow-tinged wonders to behold during this special event.

It’s another reminder on the return of the physical record. Jack White has been ahead of the curve, opening his own production facility, Third Man Pressing to manufacture new vinyl records. Here White discusses the process in his new record pressing plant with VICE.

Blink-182 and more set for Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington tribute concert

September 21, 2017 | Kevin

Linkin Park announced last week a ‘one-night only’ tribute show for their late singer Chester Bennington that will be presented at the Hollywood Bowl in California on October 27th. Tickets for the show go on sale tomorrow at 10am CST and you can get details on that here. 

According to theprp.com, the following singers and friends of LP will be on the show in some way.

Jonathan Davis (Korn)
Oliver Sykes (Bring Me The Horizon)
Daron Malakian (System Of A Down)
Shavo Odadjian (System Of A Down)
John Dolmayan (System Of A Down)
Blink-182
Machine Gun Kelly
Ryan Key (ex-Yellowcard)
Kiiara

It’s touching to see so many fans and fellow musicians join LP to pay tribute to a brilliant artist and celebrate his life with his family. Chester lost his life to suicide in July. If you or anyone you know is dealing with suicidal thoughts, please reach out to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.

Several bands involved have confirmed their participation in the special show on social media.

 

‘The Dadbag’ is an ironic fanny pack for ‘Dad Bod’ lovers

September 21, 2017 | Kevin

The trendy phrase ‘Dad Bod’ has been  embraced recently as an slightly endearing term for soft-in-the-core men, but too-hip-to-be-unhealthy idealist Albert Pukies. This is meant for men who want the trendy ponch without all the negative health issues that come with it. Based on the teaser pics for the prototype on dadbag.com, it looks like a great place to hide beer near your belly instead sporting a ‘beer belly’. Techincally the DadBag is not for sale just yet, but Pukies is looking for investors to make them.

“I made the dadbag because I’m desperate to have dad bod but I’m also very concerned about the health risks associated with it. The solution is quite simple, a bumbag with a proper dad belly printed on it. Now I can put on a dad bod whenever I feel like it and even store my valuables in it.” says Pukies.

Foo Fighters Carpool Karaoke

September 21, 2017 | Nicci

Foo Fighters ‘Carpool Karaoke’ is here and it’s 13 minutes of total epicness!! It starts out with some air-drumming to “All My Life,” carries on with even more vigorous air-drumming during “Best Of You,”then slows down with some slightly less vigorous air-drumming for “Learn to Fly.”

They also talk about how the Foo Fighters formed, a chat about Dave’s leg break show, and then they dropped into a music store for a quick drum session with Grohl and Hawkins.

An MSNBC Host Lost His Mind Over a Malfunctioning Earpiece

September 21, 2017 | Nicci

MSNBC host LAWRENCE O’DONNELL flipped out on his staff during a taping of his show “The Last Word” a few weeks ago, and some behind-the-scenes footage hit the web yesterday.  It’s hilarious.

There was something messed up with O’Donnell’s earpiece, and on top of that, there was also some loud HAMMERING happening somewhere just outside the studio.

Animated Dave Grohl Explains Foo Fighters Concrete & Gold

September 20, 2017 | Marconi🍕

I was one of the lucky ones that got to see the Foo Fighters 3 + hour Metro show during Lolla this year. After the show I went across the street to Wrigleyville Dogs (ordered the #5) and when I came out, Taylor Hawkins was in front of the venue signing , high fiving, and taking selfies with anyone that wanted one. This band gets it so much. They love their fans so hard and we love the Foo Fighters right back.

So when it comes to their new album Concrete and Gold we want to know things, like why did they decide on a different producer after so many years with Butch Vig? How did they end up with so many guests? And other FAQS…

Animated Dave Grohl explains everything in this glorious video below.

Here’s the song that changed the entire course of Foo Fighters history
