In conjunction with Record Store Day 2011, Mike Gordon will release Inside In and Moss Remixes as Limited Edition Vinyl albums that will be available exclusively at participating independently owned record stores across the country.

Nearly eight years after Mike's debut solo release, Inside In, they are unleashing the album on vinyl for the first time as a deluxe double-LP set. For Record Store Day, Inside In has been pressed on 180g orange vinyl and includes "Minkinetics", "Trinners March" and "Be Your Tape", three previously unreleased outtake tracks from the album (available only on vinyl). Musicians on the album include Phish's Jon Fishman, Bela Fleck, Col. Bruce Hampton, Buddy Cage, Vassar Clements and others.

In addition, Moss Remixes, a Limited Edition 7-inch featuring two remixes from Mike's latest solo album Moss (released in October 2010) will be available at participating record stores. The release is limited to 1,000 copies. The idea was not to "remix" the songs, but instead, work with the moments that had lead to the germination of the songs. The A and B sides include full remixes of "Horizon Line" and "Fire From A Stick" (which incorporate bits of original demos, bass and drum jams, and many added extra textures).

Both 'Inside In' and 'Moss Remixes' will be available in stores beginning April 16th, 2011.

Allman Brothers Band returns to the Beacon Theatre for 13 shows Get Tickets Now For Hittin' the Note Beacon Parties

One month from now, the Allman Brothers Band returns to the Beacon Theatre for 13 shows, and Hittin' the Note will be there in force! For years they have been doing special pre-show parties during the Beacon Run where fans can enjoy each others' company, unique, intimate musical performances, and buy the latest and greatest HTN merch without those pesky shipping charges.

This year TWO Beacon events, on Saturday March 12th and Saturday March 19th, and tickets are going fast! This year we will be holding both events at the legendary Iridium club, an intimate room that only holds 180 people. Some of you may remember that we have had to turn people away from these Beacon parties in the past, so if you want to make sure you get in, get your tickets in advance.

The music for these events will be top notch; the March 12th show features Randall Bramblett of Sea Level fame, with singer/songwriter Davin McCoy opening, while Tommy Talton and Scott Boyer of Cowboy perform on the 19th. These veterans of the golden age of Capricorn Records are amazing musicians, and you can't go wrong with either show, so you should just go to both!

Free Download Moby Sevastopol

Moby's lengthy, vibrant career has of course required a lot of travel and, like most artists, he has a way to describe the feelings—emotional and physical—that all that movement invokes: "Everything around you is vaguely familiar but disconcerting in its familiarity...all looks normal except your circadian rhythms are all screwed up. You haven't eaten well, you have slept well, it's unnecessarily bright [and] you're covered in that weird, synthetic travel grime." "Sevastopol" almost seems to take on those qualities—a stream of languid electronics with an even prettier rattling atop, as if your body was battling to keep up with the excitement of experience while but your master clock was still ticking out of control, humming to keep yourself sane.

Free Download Lykke Li I Follow Rivers (I Follow You Tyler, The Creator Mix)

When Tyler, The Creator sees something, he takes it. Have you seen the new video for Odd Future's "Yonkers"? Wow! Who knew it, but petty theft and a potty mouth in no way annul the potential a human being has to make great art. Tyler doesn't get as heavy as he does in "Yonkers" here; he doesn't suck all Lykke Li's sweetness out (we guess you'd need a pretty big straw to do that). But despite its lusty synths and heaven's gate xylophone chimes, there's a dark-eyed lurch to this one that suggests there are a few 'roaches lurking beneath those red satin sheets.

Skillet long-time guitarist Ben Kasica is going to end his time with Skillet

FROM THE BAND:

What's up everybody? We have just returned home from Australia, New Zealand, and Japan, where we had an awesome tour! However, as we are taking a little time off, we have a sad message to share with you. Our long-time guitarist Ben Kasica is going to end his time with Skillet. We have had 10 years working together, and it has been an amazing ride!

Third Day Tickets


From the years we spent driving through the night in a van; to playing concerts all the way around the world, I've seen Ben transform from the kid who was nervous to play a guitar solo, to the rocker who now plays a solo...with his teeth! I always knew the time would come for Ben to leave and pursue other dreams, and now it is here. We are a family and we are going to miss him.

We appreciate how hard he has worked for us and wish him the best in his life off the road. We have asked Ben if he would like to give a message to the fans, being that I'm sure all of you would like to hear from him, and of course he did:

The Black Keys Announce North American Summer Tour fresh off receiving multiple Grammy Awards for their latest Nonesuch album, Brothers, have announced plans for a summer tour of the United States and Canada.

The Black Keys, fresh off receiving multiple Grammy Awards for their latest Nonesuch album, Brothers, have announced plans for a summer tour of the United States and Canada. The band will be joined for most of the dates by special guests Cage the Elephant and, for the first date in June, by Booker T. Jones, Nicole Atkins & The Black Sea.

The band performed two sold-out shows at the Chelsea Ballroom at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas over the weekend, with Cage the Elephant opening on Saturday and OutKast's Big Boi on Sunday. There was a whole lot of "quaking and shaking" going on at the Chelsea, says the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "Some things are meant to be felt rather than intellectualized," says Review-Journal writer Jason Bracelin, "a notion almost as perfectly primal as the Keys themselves on this night."

Below are the currently scheduled tour dates, including their recently announced stops at the Bonnaroo and Coachella festivals. For more information, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

To pick up a copy of the Grammy Award-winning album Brothers, with high-quality, 320 kbps MP3s of the album included at checkout, head to the Nonesuch Store.

Sharon Van Etten: A Love Song For Everyone NPR's Song of the Day

Some love songs celebrate huge emotions — the gale-force power of a romance propelled by intense desire. Others locate small moments and allow them to stand in for love's many ambiguities. Sharon Van Etten is typically a master of the latter: In "Much More Than That," for example, she chronicles a series of small gestures, until it becomes clear that she's declaring her affections by laying every insecurity bare.

TERRY PEGULA OFFICIALLY INTRODUCED AS NEW OWNER OF THE BUFFALO SABRES

BUFFALO, N.Y. (February 22, 2011) --- The Buffalo Sabres today introduced Terry Pegula as the team's new owner during a press conference at HSBC Arena that was attended by current and former Sabres players. Pegula becomes the fourth owner in franchise history, taking over from B. Thomas Golisano who owned the team from 2003-2011. The Sabres also announced that Ted Black has been named the team's new President and Alternate Governor, and Ken Sawyer will serve as the team's Senior Advisor.

A lifelong hockey fan, the 59-year-old Pegula was a Sabres season ticket holder from 1980-98 as he spent time living in both Olean and Orchard Park, NY, while operating East Resources Inc., an independent exploration and development company. A native of Carbondale, PA, Pegula founded East Resources Inc., in 1983. Over the next 27 years, he built it into one of the largest privately held companies in the United States. In July of 2010, Royal Dutch Shell purchased the assets of East Resources Inc. for $4.7 billion (US).

NHL TICKETS

In September 2010, Pegula and his wife Kim donated $88 million to Penn State University -- the largest private gift in the history of the school -- to fund a state-of-the-art, multi-purpose arena, a world-class practice facility and help to establish an NCAA Division I men's hockey program.

Black joins the Sabres following two years as the Senior Vice President and General Manager of FSN Pittsburgh. Prior to that he was a member of Mario Lemieux's senior management team and served as Vice President of the Pittsburgh Penguins from 1999-2008. Black was instrumental in the initial design and construction vision of the Penguins' new state-of-the-art home, the CONSOL Energy Center.

Now in their 40th anniversary season as an NHL franchise, the Sabres have an all-time record of 1514-1183-477 in 3,174 games.

GOLF A little Joke To Start Your Morning!

He left home about 8:30 a.m. to play golf with his friends. On the way out the door he answered his wife's "what time will you be home?" question with "probably about 1:30, I'll have lunch at the club."

1:30 came & went, 3:00 passed, 6:15, still not home, finally at about 11:45 he rolls in the driveway, leaves his clubs in the garage, and presents his wife with a pizza, and begins the apologetic story.

We finished our game about 11:30, had lunch, and I started home, when alongside the road I saw this attractive girl with a flat tire on her car. I stopped to help, got the tire changed, and looked around for a place to wash my hands. She offered money, but I refused, so she suggested that I at least allow her to buy me a beer. She said there's a tavern just up the road, and they have a restroom, you can clean up a bit. I agreed to stop, we had a beer, then another beer, then a couple more, and I realized that this girl was not only pretty, she was very friendly, and a good companion to spend time with. Before I knew it, we were in the motel next door having sex. And that is why I am so late getting home.

His wife looked him in the eye and said "don't mess with me; you played 36 holes, didn't you?

MerleFest 2011, presented by Lowe's and slated for April 28-May 1, has added legendary musician Robert Plant's new Grammy®-nominated project, Robert Plant and the Band of Joy, to the festival's lineup.

Robert Plant and the Band of Joy's eponymous album, released in the fall of 2010 and nominated for two Grammy awards, was roundly praised by critics. Rolling Stone stated that "Plant uses an 'A' list of country voices and players (Patty Griffin, Buddy Miller) and an inspired mix of vintage and modern songs," and the Los Angeles Times lauded Plant's embrace of "the ancient roots of country and folk music, a haunted place where broken hearts rarely heal and where restless spirits find little peace."

Robert Plant Tickets
In concert, the band is also winning over the critics. "The concerts are an eclectic mix pulled together by the charm and force of Mr. Plant's personality, the wonder of his voice and his spirited band, featuring Buddy Miller and Patty Griffin on guitar, Darrell Scott on stringed instruments, Byron House on bass and Marco Giovino on drums," stated the Wall Street Journal. The Boston Herald declared, "The most versatile group of musicians Plant has surrounded himself with since Led Zeppelin, the band easily followed his detours into English folk, Delta blues and North African rhythms, while always helping him find his way back to his Americana foundation."

Robert Plant and Band of Joy and the previously announced lineup of artists will join host Doc Watson on the campus of Wilkes Community College for a celebration of "traditional plus" music-a term Doc coined to describe the unique mix of traditional, roots-oriented sounds of the Appalachian region, including bluegrass and old-time music and expanded to include Americana, country, "plus whatever other styles we were in the mood to play," Doc explained.

With over 90 artists performing on 14 stages during the course of the event, MerleFest is an entertainment value. Ticket purchases can be made on the web at www.merlefest.org or by calling 1-800-343-7857. An early bird ticket discount is available through March 13, 2011.

Chilly Gonzales
You Can Dance (Walter Sobcek Remix)
Download this song

This Walter Sobcek remix of Chilly Gonzales' "You Can Dance" prefers things a little cuter and more starry-eyed than the original does, but both exude a naivety that feels too heartwarming to be drug-induced, and too sincere to be faked. While a lot of dance music seems to yearn for teenage dabbles with house or rave, this feels like it taps into something more elemental. Relive the disco childhood you never had when this comes out March 1.

Free Download Cold War Kids Mine Is Yours (feat. Sir Michael Rocks Of The Cool Kids) (Blended Babies Remix)

Props to Sir Michael Rocks (of The Cool Kids fame) for doing the reverse Diddy and making his name even longer than the original Mikey Rocks. His collab with Chicago production team Blended Babies is imbued with the same kind of change-up bravado. Blended Babies' refit of Cold War Kids' "Mine Is Yours" is proof that a love song is open to the listener's interpretation and, here, the verses Sir Michael Rocks spits are about the same kind of longing and disconnect that Cold War Kids crafted so well. For the original heart string-tugger, you can grab their new record, Mine Is Yours, out now on Downtown.
