Your daily dose of national music news for Wednesday, February 25, 2009... I guess Bono has forgotten he's in U2. Because, suddenly, he says he's afraid that Coldplay, The Killers and Kings of Leon are making better music than he is. Eminem's potentially landmark lawsuit against Universal Music Group is going to trial. Em feels he and the label should split download royalties 50/50 instead of the regular way royalties are distributed. If he wins, it'll change thin

Your daily dose of national music news for Monday, April 6, 2009...A hip-hop group named Smoke Jumpers has released a Chris Brown diss track. It's not that surprising--it's all part of "Hip-Hop 101" on how to raise your profile. I mean, did you ever hear of them before this? Didn't think so.Turns out Kings of Leon almost didn't put its hit single "Sex On Fire" on Only By The Night. But all it took for the label execs to change their mind was booze.

Two follow-ups in this particular radio round-up. First, I exchanged a few messages with Alan Ayo via Facebook, and the long and short of it is, he's not at all upset that Clear Channel gave him his walking papers yesterday. Writes the former midday host and music director at KDGE-FM:I'm feeling rather liberated, excited, and have so much else going on, I haven't even had time to think about my radio past.I really don't feel I was ever a "radio DJ", anyway. Just a music fan who was standing in t

Without further ado, here's how you spent your weekend, music fans...Shinedown on Saturday, May 9, at Pizza Hut ParkI actually woke up at fairly a reasonable hour today, which never happens, and

Your daily dose of national music news for Monday, June 29, 2009... In what shouldn't surprise anyone, Michael Jackson could take the number one spot on the Billboard charts this week. Eminem, Flaming Lips and Jane's Addiction have been added as headliners at Voodoo Festival. Apparently Art Brut isn't big fans of Kings of Leon's or The Killers' lyrics. I guess the band can be written off as a potential supporting act, huh?

The legendary guitarist had the color scheme of his "Frankenstrat" copywritten, copyrighted, and a new pair of Nikes has a similar scheme on the sole of it's new shoes. To be fair, the guitar kinda does look like a shoe. Courtney Love is getting the band back together! Looks like she's decided that her solo album Nobody's Daughter should be a Hole album instead.&n

Your daily dose of national music news for Monday, August 10, 2009...The "Big Four" music companies are taking on Apple with a new form of digital music. Maybe they should ask Bill Gates what happened to the Zune. It seems like Kings of Leon are starting to figure out they've sold their soul to the rock 'n' roll devil. But, they really just want to have a good time. Jermaine Jackson has decided to dedicate his life to his brother Michael's work: humanitarianism. Or as I like to call

According to a press release that apparently went out to every media outlet in the world today, Dallas' own Norah Jones has a new album coming out in November--her fourth overall, and first in two years. After the jump, the press release in full, since it features some Jones quotes on the new, as-yet-untitled release, as well as updates on what she's been up to in the past two years. No mention of El Madmo, though, oddly enough. Oh well.Anyway, before you jump, here's something of note: Among

Your daily dose of national music news for Friday, August 28, 2009... Rivers Cuomo says he basically ripped off "Undone (The Sweater Song)" from Metallica. Nathan Followill says Kings of Leon's new record is going to sound like Radiohead and Thin Lizzy. I guess that's a break from U2, right? TV on The Radio's Kyp Malone, aka Cornell West's long-lost-son, is hitting the solo trail this fall for his project Rain Machine.
August 28, 2009Gig Reminder: Macon Greyson, Ha Ha Tonka, Dana Falconberry at Green Elephant Tonight
In last week's paper, I spoke at length with Macon Greyson about the band's new record because, well, it's good, and free, and worth your grabbing. But I also did so, in part at least, to preview the band's show at the Green Elephant tonight with Springfield, Missouri's Ha Ha Tonka and Austin chanteuse Dana Falconberry. Ha Ha Tonka, you've probably noticed, has been near inescapable of late, no doubt a tribute to the act's phenomenal release from earlier this year, Novel Sounds of the Nouveau S

Meanwhile, Dr. Dog's rocking out a set no more than 200 yards away--and playing "Hang On," no less. It's all a little distracting. But even in here, things are

Beyond charismatic and magnetic, Karen O's on-stage persona is a mixture of childlike fascination and well-studied punk rock execution. The most charming thing about it all, th
