Best o' the Blogosphere: Thursday Roundup

Stereogum reports on the VH1 Rock Honors episode coming up this Saturday in which bands like The Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, and mC faves The Flaming Lips pay tribute to one of the greatest (if not THE greatest) rock 'n' roll bands of all time, The Who. They even have this great footage of the Lips practicing for the performance (stick around as it gets really good at about the 3:20 mark):


Pitchfork is streaming new music from Brazilian Girls and Q-Tip.

Rock Daily gives us a snippet of new Kings of Leon material being performed live.

Stereogum also gives us the new Beck music video for "Gamma Ray".


Man Man

The free mp3 of the day at Spinner is Chromeo, "Bonified Lovin" (Yuksek's Remix).

And don't forget that KEXP will be live in Chicago next week, broadcasting from Engine Studios. You can sign up here to see a live performance from the likes of Mahjongg, The Watson Twins, and The M's. John and Cheryl will then be broadcasting live from Pitchfork Music Festival's ridiculously good lineup next weekend.
