finally saw what this was about: http://pitchfork.com/news/41666-daft-punk-get-their-own-coke-bottles/

uh oh . . . pitchfork just reviewed the new radiohead album.

and we care because...?

if PF gives the album a high score, haters will use that as proof that RH has sold out.  if PF gives it a bad score, they'll use it as vindication for their own dismissal of the album (without having heard it, of course).  and if PF gives it an meddling/average score, the haters will use it as proof that both PF and RH are irrelevant. 

there, now you don't have to read the review.

Not sure if this was already announced but a third Cake show (on that Saturday) is on the pollstar books.

 its not what they give an album thats the point.its that they just plain suck... its not the scoring that sucks but the reviews themselves.. the attitude.. the cluelessness... the fact that in reviewing an album they talk about what other reviews say.. the fact that they hardly ever talk about the MUSIC itself... they are HACKS... you compare their reviews with say stephen thomas erlewine or thom jurek at amg and its clear who knows something about music and who is just bullshitting.

The U Hall site crashes on my work computer. So I can't check it til I'm home at night. Didn't notice it on there last night.

Very cool that they are spinning there!
