Tinder the popular dating app and Spotify one of the biggest music streaming services have collaborated on a new feature that will allow users on Tinder to feature a sample of a song on their profile for Spotify users and non-users. The feature will be called ‘Anthem’ will also allow you to sync your accounts so you share your taste in music. This not the first time that Spotify worked with a dating app, in June they made a similar collaborative feature with Bumble. If you are worried about someone on Tinder seeing that you have listened to “Ice Ice Baby” 15 times in the last week, don’t worry you can hide the more questionable music choices that people can see.
So if you see some potential in an attractive person you come across, make sure their listening to music that does not suck. Friends don’t let friends date people who listen Nickelback, right? To counter that, someone who you meet on the app who has really cool and fun tracks does that make more attractive on a first glance level? @kevkellam

From Green Day’s facebook page:
“GREEN DAY POSTPONE FIRST THREE DATES OF UPCOMING NORTH AMERICAN CLUB TOUR AND CANCEL TORONTO APPEARANCE
LOS ANGELES, CA – SEPTEMBER 18, 2016 – Green Day regretfully must postpone three of the first four dates of their upcoming tour and must cancel the Toronto appearance, all due to illness affecting several members of the band and its crew. The postponed dates are: St. Louis, MO on 9/20, Chicago, IL on 9/21; and Detroit, MI on 9/24. The show in Toronto, ONT on 9/23, where they were due to appear at the World Cup of Hockey Fan Village will be canceled. Schedule permitting, Green Day will make up all dates but Toronto, and tickets will be honored at the new dates.
“We’re so sad to announce we have to postpone three shows and cancel Toronto,” said the band. “Many of us have been battling this infection for days on end to be ready, and it just got the best of us”
Fans who would like to obtain a refund can do so from their original point of purchase. Stay tuned to www.Greenday.com for more info on the new tour dates.”
We will keep you updated!

Noelle Scaggs had a variety of music influences growing up, one in particular that made Michael Fitzpatrick know that she had to be in the band.
Michael Fitzpatrick talks about how his heartbreak led to the creation of Fitz and the Tantrums.
Corey Feldman debut his musical labor of love on the Today show. I only know this because of the internet. And thank god for the internet today.
Serious question tho, how do I become a Corey’s Angel?

Fans may have been mixed in their reception to the DC Cinematic Universe’s ‘Suicide Squad’ movie earlier this summer, but most agreed that the wise-cracking and demented Harley Quinn played by Margot Robbie was a highlight from the blockbuster. Well that momentum has lead to a confirmed Harley Quinn solo movie. The Hollywood Reporter revealed yesterday that Robbie had signed a ‘first look’ deal with Warner Bros. to produce and star in films under her LuckyChap Entertainment production company with the Quinn movie and the trapezist biopic ’Queen of the Air’.
One of the more intriguing parts of ‘Suicide Squad’ was the tragic love affair between Harley Quinn and the most notorious villain in all comic books, the Joker so getting a movie that expands on that depth is something to possibly look forward to with this new movie. No matter what happens though, we can confirm that a LOT of women will be going as Harley this Halloween.
There is no timetable to release this specific picture but there is already planned movies for Wonder Woman, Justice League, Cyborg, The Flash, Green Lantern, Shazam, and a Batman solo flick under the DC Cinematic Universe from Warner Bros. Studios. Justice League and Wonder Woman was hyped with a teaser trailers at this summer’s Comic Con which you can check them out here.
Getting away from the grand concepts of their past music videos like the animated misadventures in the classic ‘Paranoid Android’ or the recent claymation horror of ‘Burn the Witch’, Radiohead today released a engaging yet simplistic video with Paul Thomas Anderson, who previously worked with them on ‘Daydreaming’ off their most recent album ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’. Thom Yorke and company play the crooning tune in the soft glow of what feels like a campfire, it’s not clear if smores were eaten off camera or if they followed this up with a ghost story.
RH has been full of surprises like this one that they pulled out at a recent Madison Square Garden show.

According to Deadline Hollywood, the fountain of youth embodied in one person Rob Lowe will star in the long-in-the-works ‘Super Trooper 2’ from the Broken Lizard comedy crew. The sequel to the cult comedy classic was funded with $4.5 million completely by fans. Fox Searchlight will release the film in North America. Broken Lizard members Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter and Erik Stolhanske penned the script and will star as the demented State Troopers who can’t stop getting into shenanigans.
Lowe comes into the role fresh off his recent ‘Roast’ special for Comedy Central (which really turned into a roast of conservative pundit Ann Coulter) and an acclaimed run with NBC’s ‘Parks & Recreation’. Lowe’s character in ‘ST2’ will be “Guy Le Franc, a former hockey player and the current mayor of a Quebec Canadian border town.” He’s going stay active in TV with a role on CBS’s ‘Code Black’ which has Season 2 coming soon.
Check out this short trailer Broken Lizard made for their IndieGoGo campaign. Beware NSFW language….
