In case you were curious, this Charlotte Gainsbourg/Beck collaboration is nice, but not a step off of what you’d expect if Charlotte Gainsbourg and Beck made an album together.

New York I love you, but you’re bringing me down.

$17 to see a Springsteen cover band?

Fucked Up played a show this weekend

Just like a lot of other weekends, except I want to say this is the first photo I’ve ever seen of ol’ Pink Eyes with a shirt on. Why do I keep mental logs of things like this?

Jersey Shore to continue; Pauly D kicking ass at life

Yeah you’ve already heard that the Jersey Shore crew resigned for a second-season at a pathetically low per-episode rate, which initially concerned me, until I found out they were only pulling $200 an episode each last year. With that, I sort of feel like they’re asking for it.

But Mediaite points out why these guys probably aren’t going to starve: the real money is in public appearances. And nobody’s playing that game better than Paul Delvecchio, who is said to be charging $10,000 a set to DJ. Beat that beat back Pauly D; you’re gonna need somewhere to store all that cash.

You said it, killa.

No middle ground here

Taking a look at Weezer’s tour rider, you’re probably going to conclude that these gentlemen are either the divine incarnate or the world’s biggest dickheads. There’s really nothing in between.

On the other hand, I’m probably watching Taylor Swift’s figure more than she is — this girl’s really just looking to pig the fuck out (Kraft macaroni? Ragu? Why not tell them to load her up with McDeezle and call it a day?), and, in a not-so-surprising lack of hierarchical sensitivity, serves her crew piss beer while her band drinks… well, Corona and Newcastle.

Roadies, band members, tour reps: this is what happens when you tie your success to a fundamentally classless person.
