Red Hot Chili Peppers, Beastie Boys Inducted Into Rock Hall
Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Beastie Boys and Green Day kept the five-and-a-half-hour Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductions party hopping last night (April 14) at the Public Auditorium in Cleveland, Ohio. The show, which sold out, also brought in a full house of fans around the corner at the actual Rock Hall, which was having its own party showing the concert on various screens throughout the Museum
Coachella 2012 First Weekend: Sunday Live Stream Schedule
It’s hard to believe Coachella 2012 is about to wrap up — although it’s really not at all, thanks to this year’s addition of a second weekend for the first time ever. Yes, that means we get to do this all over next weekend! That said, it is kind of sad for weekend one to be drawing to a close, despite the rare cool temperatures, gusty winds and even spots of showers.
Radiohead Added to Coachella 2012 Live Stream
We’re not going to say we told you so, but — well, we told you so. Confirming our prediction, Radiohead have been added to the Coachella 2012 live stream schedule for tonight. Radiohead are slated to hit the Coachella main stage at 11:05PM PT (2:05AM PT), and the band’s headlining set will in fact be webcast on YouTube. Check out Saturday’s updated Coachella webcast schedule and also watch the act
Will Tonight’s Radiohead Set at Coachella 2012 Stream Live After All?
There’s a ton of bands at Coachella 2012 scheduled to get live stream treatment this weekend — but unfortunately, Radiohead are not one of them. That said, eagle-eyed observers may have noticed a major coincidence: Saturday’s live stream schedule has a big, gaping “TBA” hole at 11:05PM PT, and Radiohead coincidentally are supposed to hit the stage at 11:05PM PT. Not only that, they are the only ac

Coachella 2012 First Weekend: Saturday Live Stream Schedule
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, Calif, is consistently considered one of the best festival-going experiences available annually in the United States — but thanks to the magic of a little invention called the Internet, you don’t actually have to attend it to enjoy the live music. Like its predecessors, Coachella 2012 has an immense lineup that few others rival, and this year
Coachella 2012: Fan Twitter Transmissions From Indio
Opening day and night at Coachella 2012 not only saw several stellar performances — Mazzy Star, the Black Keys and M83 were among the highlights — but also something that’s a very rare occurrence at the festival: periods of rain and downright chilly temperatures. Not surprisingly, those were the two big themes as fans took to Twitter en masse to transmit their experiences back to envious friends a
Coachella 2012: Band Twitter Transmissions From Indio
Whether currently at Coachella, on the way there, wishing they were attending or simply remembering the glory days of festivals past, artists and bands have been taking to Twitter to post about the annual gathering in the desert. From Silversun Pickups to Foster the People, however, one odd fact seems to run amongst the Twittering bands so far is that many of them aren’t playing this year.

Coachella 2012 First Weekend: Friday Live Stream Schedule
Didn’t score tickets to Coachella 2012? Actually, now in fact may be be the best time to buy. A combination of forecasted rain — which, if it happens, will be the first-ever measured precipitation at the annual desert fest — and twice as many tickets to go around thanks to the addition of a second weekend this year make pass prices the cheapest they’ve ever been on the resale market.
Slash Takes Home Riff Lord Award at 2012 Revolver Golden Gods
Ex-Guns N’ Roses rocker Duff McKagan hit the stage to present the Riff Lord honor — another new category at the 2012 Revolver Golden Gods — one “for six-string guitar shredders,” as McKagan put it. And he was able to present the trophy to his former GN’R bandmate Slash, who beat out a field that included Zakk Wylde from Black Label Society, Scott Ian from Anthrax, Munky from Korn, Dave Grohl from
Motley Crue’s Nikki Sixx Wins Best Bassist at 2012 Revolver Golden Gods
It was fitting that three members of Slipknot hit the stage to present an honor that’s new to the Revolver Golden Gods this year, and an equally fitting name for it — the Paul Gray Best Bassist Award. Gray was, after all, Slipknot’s bassist until his tragic death in May 2010 from a drug overdose, and a very skilled one at that. Bass players are often the unsung hero of the band, but nobody ever ov
Green Day in the Studio Recording Three Albums at Once
Green Day currently are working on a trilogy of albums to follow-up their 2009 release, ’21st Century Breakdown.’ The three discs — titled, appropriately, ¡Uno!, ¡Dos! and ¡Tré! — are slated for release on Sept. 25, 2012, Nov. 13, 2012, and Jan. 15, 2013, respectively. The trio is shacked up with longtime producer Rob Cavallo in its hometown of Oakland, Calif.
