Scots Take Kylie Minogue Over the Boss, Yo La Tengo Ruins Hanukkah, Should Gnarls Rerecord “Crazy”?

10/31/06, 3:57 pm EST

  • When legendary UK summer rock festival Glastonbury returns next year, Bruce Springsteen will be headlining! Oh wait. No he won’t. This long-standing rumor has been put to rest. Bruce definitely will not be playing, according Emily Eavis, the festival organizer who originally was quoted as saying the Boss would headline the event. “He wasn’t even in the picture at any point, really, despite what some people have written,” she reportedly said. So who do we get instead? Possibly Razorlight and Kylie Minogue. Nice moves, Eavis.
  • Everybody loves a rock star in a cartoon, and Andre 3000 has reportedly name-dropped Gwen Stefani, Big Boi and Snoop Dog as possible guest stars on his Cartoon Network show, Class of 3000.
  • Yo La Tengo will apparently not be playing shows at Maxwell’s in New Jersey during the eight nights of Hanukkah this year, as they have traditionally done in the past. Indie-rock-loving Jews across the eastern seaboard mourn. [via BrooklynVegan]
  • You know what you need for Christmas? Another copy of Gnarls’ St. Elsewhere featuring lots of extra stuff like videos and a flipbook. Also, the band kindly seeks the favor of your input on the “slow version” of “Crazy.” Should they release it as a holiday single type thing?

Maybe i missed out on the memo but does anyone actually like Gnarles barkley. I cant get past his names and his songs are kind of annoying.

peter lacount | 10/31/2006, 4:44 pm EST

youre retarded mike a. gnarls barkley is two people. its cee-lo and danger mouse. and if you havent heard that album you are desperately missing out.

Alls I gots to say is, Today is Halloween and it is Larry Mullen Jr.’s (drummer for U2) Birthday! He is 45 years old today! Yeah!

Mmm… the Glastonbury Festival is staged in England. Not Scotland, which is a completely different place.

Idiot.

snoooooooop | 10/31/2006, 6:43 pm EST

Snoop Dogg is his name. Two G’s, DO YOU THINK THAT IS AN ACCIDENT

Mr. Me Too | 10/31/2006, 7:37 pm EST

It’s kinda hard being snoop do double G. It really is!

cathy p. | 10/31/2006, 7:38 pm EST

I just don’t see Gnarles barkley being listened to in 10 years-or even 10 minutes from now.

Stuporfly | 10/31/2006, 8:39 pm EST

John…in the ATH is absolutely right. Glastonbury isn’t in Scotland at all. Elizabeth Goodman was too busy honing her shitty blog jokes to look at a goddamn map. Inexcusable, but as these elitist twits have proven time and again, if it doesn’t happen in Manhattan or Brooklyn, it’s not worth their time.

What has become of Rolling Stone?

GnarlsBarkley dosen’t need to re-release “St. Elsewhere” or the song Crazy. Crazy is already a great song I have heard the slower version but I like the normal one better. I also don’t see the point in putting the cd out again with more extra stuff.

Oh my God.

“Maybe i missed out on the memo but does anyone actually like Gnarles barkley. I cant get past his names and his songs are kind of annoying.”

No, Mike A. No one likes them. No one at all. You DID miss the memo.

It was the same one that told us that the Glastonbury Festival was being relocated from the south of England to Scotland. Which might come as a bit of a surprise for the Eavis family.

If Glasto dont want him, get Bruce for T in the Park (the festival which is actually in Scotland)

Mallory | 11/1/2006, 4:22 am EST

Kylie Minogue over Springsteen…travesty!!!!Her- — The epitome of no musical credibility and all image ,no substance.Good grief.. my heart weeps. With such a wealth of real talen around they pick HER.. the past mistress of bland nursery rhyme pop.YUCK

Thank god for WOMAD !!!!!!!!

Any day in which Springsteen goes without performing is a loss to humanity.

And any day in which Kylie replaces Springsteen is surely a sign of Armageddon.

Kelly | 11/1/2006, 8:45 am EST

For goodness sake when are you Americans going to realise Scotland and England are TWO sperate countries! Us Scots even have our own devolved parliment! T in the PArk is in Scotland and probably the best Festival around!

idioteque | 11/1/2006, 12:18 pm EST

Is this special edition of the Gnarls album real, or made up by RS?

I hope it’s real…I haven’t actually bought the album yet (just downloaded). Now I’ll wait to do so until this comes out.

One of my favorites of the year though.

sometimes right after i smoke a cigarette, my chest tightens…what should i do?

dyer | 11/1/2006, 5:09 pm EST

I like gnarls, but i LUV Mike A

Netman | 11/3/2006, 1:45 pm EST

Scotland and England two separate countries? Scotland may be somewhat autonomous, but as far as the UN is concerned they are not independent of the UK.

Joy | 11/3/2006, 2:31 pm EST

Stop smoking.

Nasalnan | 11/4/2006, 12:54 am EST

But I CAN’T STOP SMOKING!!!

Grizz | 11/8/2006, 1:15 am EST

If scotland and England are not two seperate countries then why do they have different money ?? from Australia

Grizz | 11/8/2006, 1:19 am EST

I live in Australia and we are part of the UN but you don’t see anyone mistacking Austrlaia for England do you? Just because scotland is within the UK doesnt mean it is England it is a different country
