INTERPOL - Pre-Sale Tickets Ends Friday, May 14th @ 11:59pm PST

I received an email today from the Interpol mailing list:

"We're getting back on the bus, traveling across some fine regions of our great states - and we're making stops... Yes, as in, playin' shows. 

Go to Interpolnyc.com where we'll be posting tour dates/cities, and for a limited time, pre-sale tickets will be available directly from the band, with no third party involvement, thus creating a less expensive price per ticket.

We're looking forward.

Thank You,

Interpol"

Ticket prices range from 28 thru 40 dollars and are for the following states as of this post: NY, PA, IA, OH, MO, GA, SC, MD, RI and CT. 

It's great that the band is doing their own ticketing and makes me feel that much more connected to the music if I were to purchase a ticket. Sort of like buying a vinyl album instead of a download or a CD. 

Unfortunately, it seems they aren't venturing past the mid-west just yet.

Laura Palmer, Have You Seen Her?

Last year about this time I was convinced that I hadn't seen enough David Lynch work so I decided to add Twin Peaks to my catalog of things I've seen.

I was not disappointed. Lynch delivered. 

I saw this ad on someone's blog and it brought back all kinds of fond memories.

Deftones - Diamond Eyes

It will be release May 4th, 2010.

However, the vinyl version will be released May 25, 2010. You can bet I'm going to wait for the vinyl version.

I like the white Barn Owl. He looks soft and downy.

You can listen to the whole album at: iheartradio.com

I became REALLY excited.

Massive Attack-Splitting the Atom-directed by Edouard Salier

I've been wanting to post this for awhile now.

Its simple polygon other-world environment combined with the mostly two-toned color scheme make

it tactile when combined with the smooth glossy abstract theme.

I like the bunny.

As far as story goes, it reminded me of the UNKLE video Rabbit in Your Headlights. 

Probably because of the discovery of something huge and amazing near the end.
