Hump Day Happenings

It's been another busy week for me, but I am looking forward to my weekend, which should be uneventful. The next show I will be seeing is Wilco at Coveleski Field in South Bend, IN, but that's not until July 30. Tickets are still available and if you live within reasonable driving distance, I would recommend hitting up their last Midwest show of the year.

• Arcade Fire to stream Aug. 5 MSG show online
• The Smashing Pumpkins to play benefit show at Metro
• Welcome to South Dakota! GN'R to play first US show in 4 years
• Check out The Black Keys on The Tonight Show
• Ozzy Osbourn & Tony Iommi settle Black Sabbath name dispute
• Check out the Lollapalooza iPhone app

Monday Morning Coffee Break

Jazzfest finished up this weekend and you can check out a complete roundup here. It also appears that we will be getting more dates for Tool's highly anticipated summer tour. Here is some news and video of my favorite MMJ song to get your Monday moving.
