It hasn’t always been a part of Super Bowl tradition, but in recent years it certainly seems that classic rock is becoming somewhat of a staple during the halftime show at the big game. It was announced this morning that legendary rockers The Who will be strumming under the spotlight for 2010’s festivities, set for [...]

So I went out and splurged a big $9.99 on the October issue of the British rock mag Uncut the other day, primarily to dig into the pieces on The Who, Big Star and Os Mutantes. And all of 'em are fine reads. So pick it up at your local Barnes & Noble.And while on the topic of The Who, my pals at MVD have sent along news that yet another docu-look at the Who and their influence on the Mods is com...

Roger Daltrey has told The Rock Radio.com that he and Pete Townshend are looking at all sorts of possible directions for next year's Who tour. "We're toying with the idea, along with the show we've got now, bringing back the production of Quadrophenia that the Who did, because we feel that that was ahead of it's time in 1996 and it would be good to give that an airing. And it also might be nice...

I love it when the mag does my favourite bands. I end up liking most of the "overrated" songs anyways, though. I'm the kind of person who, if I like a band, I like their entire discography, plus b-sides and stuff. I'm a full-album person, too, if you haven't picked up on that.according to Magnet, though, here's the listmost overrated:1. My Generation (haha whatever I love this song)2. Squeeze B...

For some reason, we don't seem to get a ton of music DVD's here at the Ripple Office, but when they do come in, Pope and I salivate like Pavolian dogs. Within moments, the popcorn is popping, the lights are dimming and we're sitting back in front of our office theater, feet kicked up and waiting in anticipation.And on this particular day, we were not disappointed.more . . . http://ripplemusic.b...

9:23 PM (PST)I'm watching The Who Rock Honors on VH1 now; it's about 20 minutes in and Incubus just covered "I Can See For Miles" and "I Can't Explain". Now I understand the whole premise of this concert and whatever, but there are definietly certain bands that shouldn't cover certain other bands. Incubus is one of them. to start, brandon boyd's vocals are already sub par, but jose antonio co...

Ever since I learned of their existence, I was fascinated by the romance of the pirate radio stations that were located on ships anchored off the coast of England in the 1960s. So I was overjoyed to learn that Richard Curtis - screenwriter/director of such pleasing Anglo rom-coms as "Four Weddings and a Funeral" and "Notting Hill" - was rolling out "Pirate Radio," a comedic movie tribute to the...

The Scene Club in Ham Yard, Soho was thought of by many as Mod Central. It wasn't a hugely popular place filled to bursting with people, but more of an underground club where only the top mods hung out, and the whole mod style was created. The club's decor didn't match the smart cut of their clothes, being a bizarre dingy basement catacomb where the walls were padded and the floor was litter...

I've been selling off my record collection (most of it) on EBay for a few weeks now and it's surprisingly cathartic. What's also surprising is what people want and what they don't. Bryan Ferry? Dead. Gang of Four? Desired.Starting this week, all my Sex Pistols, Iggy/Stooges and Who 45s are getting listed. Original pressing Sex Pistols with picture sleeves. A Bomp EP and rare French fan 45 on Ig...
