• Another book about Dylan? Wow! That sounds so…unnecessary! Actually, the book — Bob Dylan: Intimate Insights From Friends And Fellow Musicians (out in June) — sounds kinda cool. It’s an oral history that explores the great man’s influence on culture via the musings of his peers/admirers. When that list includes the Beatles, the Band, Bono, Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen and many others, the idea sounds a lot more compelling.
• Whoa, apparently Pearl Jam will be headlining Lollapalooza? According to the Chicago Sun-Times the legendary rockers (who gave their young career a boost performing at the festival back in 1992) are expected to take over the top spot at this year’s festival, held August 3-5.
• Bobby Brown, who was put in jail for unpaid child support, has been released after paying the balance of what he owed to Kim Ward, the mother of his kids.
• Wilco tease all of American by announcing a slew of tour dates, all of which will take place overseas. However, as Pitchfork points out, the band’s scheduled appearance at Bonnaroo in June makes an American tour plausible. Tour dates after the jump.
