Those crazy kids at ImprovEverywhere are at it again, this time with “I Love Lunch! The Musical”. Check it out for your listening (and lunchtime) pleasure. Keep an eye out for the special guest, Ann Curry, who announces proudly that she’s eating… clam chowder! (Bet you thought I was going to say, curry! Well no. It’s clam chowder.)

Happy birthday to one of the best singer-songwriters to ever come out of Canada.

I am SO DISAPPOINTED in myself for not having thought of doing this first. I mean, I’m a music blogger AND I work in an office all day! Dammit! Oh well, kudos youtuber sfeder331.

I really love Lady GaGa. Not only is she an amazing entertainer, but she just seems like a really cool chick. She’s different, but comfortable in her own skin and I love that. She recently performed at the Human Rights Campaign National Dinner and she did a rendition of John Lennon’s Imagine that gave me chills. She changed up some of the wording to make it more appropriate for today’s political climate and the event for which she was performing. It’s really, REALLY good. Please enjoy and thank youtuber Adikism for uploading.

Other than the fact that she’s one of my favorite people to follow on Twitter, and is an amazing performer, there’s this video where she and Jason Webley cover Evelyn & Evelyn and Cyndi Lauper, AND make me laugh.

I’ve been having a lot of poor me, wah wah moments since I missed Grizzly Bear and Beach House in Chicago a couple of weeks ago. Who misses out on a two night bill? This girl.
Additionally, I’ve been hearing that the show is just ridiculously amazing from all of my friends who did buy tix in time. Luckily, some awesome fans have been posting awesome vids on youtube to help ease my pain. This one has to be my favorite of Grizzly Bear and Victoria Legrand (lead singer of Beach House) performing Slow Life, their duet for the upcoming Twilight: New Moon movie. Thanks to youtuber snivelttam for posting!

According to their website, Tegan and Sara’s newest album, Sainthood, is set to go on pre-sale today (album release 10/27). With the album pre-sale, fans can also purchase three books chronicling the lives of the Indie rock darlings over a good portion of their tour in support of The Con and while they worked on Sainthood. The books, titled On, In, and At, will also feature writing from openers such as Dallas Green, Northern State and An Horse, and photographs from Lindsey Byrnes and Ryan Russell.
The band premiered six songs from Sainthood last week at the Rifflandia Festival. It sounds like Sainthood is set to be their best album yet!
Alligator
The Ocean
On Directing
The Cure

I do believe you can find the youtuber who posted these vids at http://twitter.com/wojo4hitz. Thank her for her awesome videography.

I love this as much, if not more, than the original.

Can we all get together for coffee or something one day and talk about our deep, deep love for the Gossip? Their new album was in my top three this summer and I have been having a pretty hardcore love affair with them (heavy petting and all) that they may, or may not know about. Probs may not. Anywho, I’m planning a much lengthier album review/declaration of my love, but for now I leave you with this lovely video to add a little musical sunshine to your Friday. Golden lipstick is magical, btw.
