And I think it's fly when girls stop by...

Thanks to Joe John's investigative reporting, we heard Colin Meloy's pre-Decemberists band, Tarkio, before Pitchfork posted official info on the re-release. Also, a video of the Decemberist's recent performance on KCRW's Morning becomes Eclectic is available here. It's the first I've seen with their new (male!) drummer and violin girl. I am no good with change, but maybe I'll get over it before their Summerstage show with Death Cab and Stars, at which I will kill myself for being so lame and terribly old.

Rich Cronin, lead singer of LFO, diagnosed with leukemia. I know you haven't thought about LFO in years, but dude sang "Summer Girls"! Jesus! Let's pray he gets better so he can continue work on his solo project. You all get one chinese food/msg-related joke and that's it.

Kevin Federline's ex-gf/struggling actress Shar Jackson says she's willing to let her kids have a relationship with baby Spears. The world needs more selflessness like this.

Woman forgets words to national anthem at hockey game, runs off ice, falls hard = LOL where is Bob Saget when we need him?!!!!

Most boring celebrity couple reality show evs? Please tell me one thing that would make watching Venus and Serena worthwhile.

Until I get my Wesleyan webspace figured out, tracks from the new Sufjan Stevens album, Illinois, will be on my wirehog favorites (forseriousok.wirehog.com). The world needs more slight voices and banjos.
