- Coldplay’s Website has been temporarily paralyzed by fans flooding the address to pick up the free live album LeftRightLeftRightLeft. Chris Martin and Co. promised a copy of the nine-song collection to every fan who buys a ticket for their summer tour, as well.
- Surveillance footage that captured Pearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament being robbed outside an Atlanta studio was broadcast on a local news report, Blabbermouth reports (with a clip).
- The Beastie Boys stashed a bonus 7″ boasting two new, unreleased tracks in some copies of their Check Your Head vinyl box set, NME reports via a not-so-new post at Mic to Mic. “Lee Majors Come Again” features the trio rhyming over hardcore punk and “B Boys in the Cut” is an a cappella.
- Interpol’s Paul Banks has posted his first MP3 as Julian Plenti on the Matador Records blog. “Fun That We Have” features a brighter sound that Interpol’s broody post-punk, and a NIN-lite aesthetic.
