It's hard to say whether The Walkmen are incredibly lucky to tour with such talent as The National, The Black Keys, Grizzly Bear, Japandroids, Gang Gang Dance, Helio Sequence, and A.A. Bondy or if it's the other way around, but I do know that fans are incredibly lucky to see any of these guys on tour. The indie rockers have lined up a huge slate of dates this Summer and fall that will take them to a number of festivals including Taste of Minnesota, 80/35, Xponential, Osheaga, Lollapalooza, and a grand show on Governors Island with Grizzly Bear and Gang Gang Dance on August 12 plus all of the other headliners and supporting slots mixed...

Radiohead guitarist Ed O'Brien interviewed with BBC 6 yesterday and had this to say about the release of the band's next full-length... "Ideally, it would be great if it came out sometime this year. It has got to; I hope so. We're at the finishing line. When you're making a record, a film, write a book for ages and ages you think the finishing line is miles away. Now it feels it's in touching distance. But of course, it being a creative process, at the last bit also, you have bursts of energy, you achieve a lot of things in a small period of time and then...

The boys of Vampire Weekend will continue touring their little Contra off with dates schedule through October in support of their critically acclaimed sophomore album released earlier this year.

No matter how young or old an individual may be I’ve always believed that universally people can agree with loved fictional character Peter Pan; in reality, who wants to grow up? As I continue to move further into my 20’s I begin to realize the responsibilities of the adult world, and the amount of effort required just to make ends meet. Still, I don’t want to grow up. I want to be the “Toys ‘R Us Kid” late into my 80’s that never has to worry about a single thing. I want the playground in my backyard. Give me the sandbox, swings, and all!

Although it is OK to occasionally visit Neverland, it is important to live in the...
