Click here to view the embedded video. There's not much that makes me happier than seeing incredible live acts work their way through Columbus. On that note, I'm pleased to announce the news of Jonsi 's solo performance at The Newport on Saturday, November 6th. He released his debut solo album Go this past April and has been touring on it since. Though I've never had the chance to see Sigur Ros live, Jonsi's New York show on May 8th at Terminal 5 was honestly one of the [...]

There was a bizarre rumour in the mill this morning that legendary DJ Tiesto had died in a car accident. For all those who have tickets for his Victoria Park extravaganza - which was out of this world last year - I can confirm that the man himself is alive and well. In a statement thanking people for their concern and caring for his well being, he confirmed that the rest of his tour is still very much on. Quite where these rumours started seems to be [...]
The solo debut Go from Sigur Ros frontman Jonsi has been out for a while now, but it is still so fresh for me. I don't know about all of you out there but I never get tired of whatever the people of Iceland put out and Go is no exception. Here for your listening pleasure is a track off Go called Hengilas

Luego de Eyjafjallajökull , el álbum debut de Jónsi (Sigur Rós) , los últimos discos de Múm , y la locura insaciable de Björk , la idea de visitar Islandia, cada vez se volvía menos atractiva. Y no lo digo a nivel personal, sino a nivel mundial, vaya, en otras palabra, recientemente la tierra de los elfos perdió "hype" y a sabiendas de esto, han lanzado una campaña llamada " Inspired by Iceland " con la que pretenden promover una imagen "más feliz" y "divertida" de este país. A decir verdad, el resultado es bastante conmovedor [...]

Since the release of Sigur Ros's breakthrough LP, Agaetis Byrjun, I've attended over a dozen gigs by the Icelandic quartet. Without fail, each & every one of those performances has left me in a state of absolute awe. Two months ago, Jonsi unveiled his gorgeous debut solo album, Go. Unsurprisingly, I was totally enamored with [...]

In the days before this concert I'd read reviews describing Sigur Rós frontman Jónsi 's live show as a magical, awe-inspiring, tear-inducing experience that would ruin any future concerts for me. I'd seen video of Jónsi performing songs live and some behind-the-scenes shots of the stage. None of this prepared me for the truly amazing concert that I experienced though. Because the vast scope and engrossing nature of this concert, it took me a while to collect my thoughts on this concert (which might explain my delay in reviewing this show). Jónsi's show at The Vic [...]

Questo Maggio sarà un mese infernale. Ho diversi lavori da portare avanti in parallelo, un regime alimentare austero da seguire con rigore e tanto fastidio nei confronti del pianeta intero da trasformare progressivamente in energia positiva. Il tutto prima di arrivare alla partenza per Barcellona. I soliti grandi propositi insomma. Di aprire il feed reader in questi giorni non se ne parla, al solito non per mancanza di voglia quanto di tempo. Per carità, non mi lamento neanche troppo, è che le giornate si son fatte generalmente belle e di stare tanto [...]

I really hope a good live video surfaces of Jónsi performing his song 'Grow Till Tall' (another version of which can be heard in this trailer here ). Easily one of the best songs I've ever seen performed live, Jónsi saved the best for last this past friday by performing this masterpiece as the 2nd song of the encore and last of the night. The song starts soft with Jónsi 's angelic voice and minimal instrumentation, but as it continues and builds, a wall of sound emerges under a beautiful three note vocal loop. [...]

Palm Springs - Continued from part 1 and part 2 Honorable Mentions One: Jay-Z I saw Jay-Z last year at All Points West (a considerably smaller festival held in Liberty State Park, New Jersey) and was blown away at his energy and passion. He did not disappoint at Coachella (albeit starting his set late, but he IS the Jigga Man), he opened with Run This Town and got the crowd hyped right from the get go. He was accompanied by Memphis Bleak for [...]
