So this is the perfect daydream of every American rock band? It seems as if the camera man has kept on the band all day long. I think Portugal.The Man are kidding us mightily in her new video for " So American ", directed by Nik Zografos. But I wish them more than any other. Favorite band, so American!

Portugal. The Man made their national televison debut last night on Conan.
Last night on Conan Portugal. The Man made their national TV debut and what a debut it was. Performing "So American" from their album In the Mountain in the Cloud they even had some extra musicians helping out on string duties. The performance sounds and looks great. Make sure you stay tuned right until the big finish. Catch it at the top and if you don't have their album in your life yet change it right now and go buy it !
I was taken aback a bit when I found out that last nights performance on Conan was Portugal. The Man's first television late night performance. It's kind of odd considering the bands prolific track record, but I'm glad to see them finally getting their comeuppance for such tough dues paid. Check em out playing "So American" and then check out the dates for another expansive tour they'll be doing this fall below. Portugal. The Man 2011 Tour Dates: 09/30 – San Diego, CA @ House of Blues * 10/01 – [...]

![Remix Roundup Vol. 52 – 9.20.2011 [Midnight Conspiracy, Edwin van Cleef, MEN, Hearts Revolution, and more...]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3734552_lg.jpg)
Welcome back. I understand its Tuesday... In case you missed last week, I outlined my change in posting philosophy. In fact we're setting a new TBE record for the shortest time between Remix Roundups. Thats right, you're now apart of some very dramatic world history. Go ahead and tell your friends about it. Does this new philosophy always mean I will be posting this often? Not always, but sometimes. Also, check out the contest we're running for tickets to live shows in your city (you've got options). So, without further adieu turn your speaker [...]

Not only is Portugal. The Man (@portugaltheman) one of my favorite all-time bands, they also get my nod as Twitter masters. My stream is cordially flooded with posts from these guys, which typically are very personal, a nice break from the bands that only use Twitter as only a way of plugging their work. It's really refreshing to get to know a band (at least to some degree) through their sense of humour, day-to-day happenings, seemingly random pictures, and more. It reminds us that they are indeed human beings and [...]
The above video is the winner of Junip 's video contest they hosted with Moog for their latest single, "Without You" from last year's Fields release. I have to say, the winner of the contest, co-DEPENDECYfilm, did a fantastic job of capturing the essence of the song, right? The video was shot in Albuquerque, NM on 16mm film = lo-fi artsy fartsy, yay! In addition to being named the official video for "Without You", co-DEPENDENCYfilm receives a Moogerfooger hand crafted effects box from Moog. Make sure you pick [...]

I've felt out of the loop for the last couple days. It's pretty disorienting, actually. Football season is here. The weather is starting to change (I actually got chilly outside today for the first time since I can remember). I'm not sure what the latest thing Lady Gaga did for shock value. And I don't know who everyone is buzzing over musically in the big 'ole blogosphere. So as we transition from shorts to sweaters, I know who I've been listening to and that's what this blog is supposed to be about, I think. I doubt anyone wants [...]

The Blogophilia repost project continues... We've been busy with a lot of good submissions, and that's a good thing. It's time to take a breather.

Volumes 23-28 are currently active (zip format only for volumes 23-27), and we're making re-posted volumes available for about a week. Get 'em while you can. Blogophilia 15 [...]
