  popwreckoning — Authority: 142
  What is there to say about Day 2 of ACL? After such a beautiful Day 1, the rain came and stuck around for the most part of Day 2. When I realized this rain was not going to pass anytime soon, I invested in a poncho. The beautiful Zilker Park was left a muddy mess in mere hours, but festival goers embraced the rain and ...

  Premium Hollywood - Entertainment blog, Hollywood blog, movie blog, TV blog — Authority: 485
  And filmed by Martin Scorsese no less. There are numerous clips available from “ The Last Waltz ,” but especially since this is still Halloween weekend, I doubt there’s a better choice than the Band’s riveting “Stage Fright,” with the late Rick Danko singing and playing lead and Garth Hudson burning up ...

  L.A. RECORD — Authority: 491
  The New York Times called him “indie rock’s workaholic mad genius,” but L.A. RECORD finds the measure of Dirty Projectors’ David Longstreth somewhere between the most subtle implications of Philip Glass’ Music In Fifths and the sudden desire for a sandwich. This interview by Drew Denny.

• Halloween Countdown #4

  
  BLOGORRHEA — Authority: 121
  A lush, lapidary Talking Deads composition from 1979 – 30 Halloweens ago , yikes. Reportedly David Byrne achieved the disjointed quality of his voice here by wearing a recording device while jogging. I should warn you that this video starts with an inexplicable 30-second lead-in. Bear with it; it goes away soon, ...

  Adam Ford - poet, novelist, zinemaker, comic artist, show-off — Authority: 455
  A fact that fills me with inordinate glee. Here’s a sample: I had a dream in which I was on a tractor, lurching along, pulling a wagon that was piled with large backpacks.

  KERA Art&Seek Blog — Authority: 528
  Live theater is such an ephemeral thing, it’s hard to assess the real merit of performances and productions from even a few years ago — if you never saw them, if they were never recorded. Although I met him twice, I never saw a show directed by Paul Baker, the founder of the Dallas Theater [...]
