The 15 Best Gigs of 2012 in The World (that I attended)! Primavera Sound at the Forum Barcelona, Spain: Coverage My first experience at Primavera Sound was so amazing that it prompted me to purchase tickets for the following year prior to any lineup announcements. Just a few of the acts I saw were: The Cure, Saint Etienne (as the clock struck 12 on my birthday), Justice, The Xx, Sleigh Bells, Grimes, Friends, The Rapture, Franz Ferdinand, [...]
![[ROUND-UP] 2012 was pretty cool, wasn't it?](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4696414_lg.jpg)
January and February are never exciting, are they? Plus Whitney and Donna Summer passed away. Winter sucks (except for Kylie's #K25 celebrations which began on Jan 25 and went on every month, unveiling lovely gems along the way. See them all here ). March was something else. I was lucky enough to embark on a 20-date tour of France, Belgium and Switzerland with Charlie Winston, an artist I'd been [...]
Echadle la culpa a Mogkumo: fue él quien me descubrió a esta tal Annie, cuya existencia me era totalmente ajena, y me convirtió en un fan de la Madonna-Indie-que-no-es Robyn. Y es que, aunque soy plenamente consciente de que la hombría de uno no queda del todo intacta después de reconocer cosas así, a mí todas estas producciones de pop fantabuloso de Richard X y los Xenomania me parecen chiflantes. En un mundo medianamente justo, " Don´t Stop " (disco en el que inexplicablemente no fue incluida la pista sobre la que va este post, algo que prácticamente [...]
Por Carla Fumagalli Otro fin del mundo que no fue. Si bien es casi seguro que este no fue el último, es muy posible que haya sido en el que más esperanzas hayamos depositado como humanidad deseosa de un desastre inminente. Es decir, este venía auspiciado por una civilización precolombina, los mayas, que sabían todo de todo el universo, que tenían otra forma de ver el tiempo, que habían sabido construir un imperio que a su vez había sabido desaparecer. En fin, otro fin (del mundo) que más que fin fue permanencia y conservación [...]
Non solo album e singoli. Una canzone ha anche un video che l'accompagna ed è una parte integrante e importante del successo. Una buona riuscita può provocare un passaparola tra il pubblico che inizia a conoscere sempre più il pezzo grazie -magari- ad un concept originale e vincente alla base. E così, oggi, dopo il salto potete leggere la top ten dei video musicali del 2012 secondo Digital Spy. Scelte che, da un lato, possono essere condivise ma che, in altri casi, fanno scuotere la testa per la posizione assegnata. Sono sicuro , ad esempio, che [...]
Back around Thanksgiving I prepared my blog for a bunch of Hot Video Alert posts that would go up BOOM BOOM BOOM but, the craziness of the holiday PLUS the fact that I was about to start a new job in the city, I never got around to it. So...let's try this again. First up, Rihanna's STUNNING video for her single "Diamonds," taken from Unapologetic, the Barbadian beauty's seventh studio
Madonna's MDNA Tour draws to a close tonight in Cordoba, Argentina. The DVD is set for release in March, watch the fan made full show edit now.
Madonna e le polemiche . Un binomio spesso fortunato, bisogna ammetterlo. Hanno caratterizzato buona parte della sua carriera -soprattutto nel periodo Erotica. Non sorprende, quindi, di leggere lamentele e notizie sul web che descrivono la potente star internazionale al centro di critiche. Sono le regole dello showbusiness, no? E ancora di più in questi ultimi anni, quando ogni azione o sfuriata può essere riprese semplicemente con un cellulare e messa online in pochi minuti. E' quello che è successo in Cile, quando, la popstar era sul palco per provare alcuni passaggi del suo show. Un ombrello si apre [...]
TMZ snagged the above video of Madonna going H.A.M. on some fans who were smoking near the stage before her MDNA show in Santiago, Chile Wednesday (December 19). While sound techs were setting up the stage, Madge noticed the nicotine fumes and was so offended that she braved the rain, grabbed the mic and threatened to cancel the show altogether, because that's rational. "No smoking! If you're going to smoke cigarettes I am not doing the show," she said. Amidst confused murmurs and boos, Madonna continued to cig-shame, adding, "If you don't [...]
As 2012 comes to a close and we all start fondly looking back at the best music that the year had to offer, we must also remember the biggest beefs of the past 12 months. From rappers to pop tarts to boy banders, 2012 was chock full of feuds. Thankfully for us, most of them were just as entertaining as they were petty. But not all cat fights were created equal, so here we present to you the top five juiciest, naughtiest and beefiest pop feuds of the year. Clench your fists and head below! [...]

Last year, I decided to write about my favorite concert moments . Because I was most likely lazy and didn't really want to provide much context, I wrote about them in awards format. It's now 2012, and I am still kind of lazy, so I will do this once again. I even used the same image as last year. In terms of the last few years, 2012 was probably the year I attended the least amount of concerts. Maybe it was because I spent six weeks out of the country. Maybe I suffered from concert-itis. I [...]

The material girl may not have been in attendance at the VH1 Divas celebration last night (December 16), but that didn't stop the show from marking the 30th anniversary of Madonna 's debut single ( "Everybody" ). After a short tribute video, host and Madonna die-hard Adam Lambert belted out Madge's 1998 hit "Ray Of Light." Dressed like a Druid priest, the former American Idol contestant injected his brand of glam-wailing into Madge's strobe-lit dancehall hit, and by the end [...]
