<p>Win a chance to meet <strong>Lady Gaga</strong>, attend her rehearsal and <strong>&#8220;Monster Ball&#8221; concert</strong> in Boston all while capturing it on camera.</p>
<p><strong>MySpace Music</strong> has announced an exclusive contest with international pop superstar Lady Gaga to win the chance to film the first U.S concert of her tour on December 1st in Boston, MA; the video will be edited and featured on the homepage of MySpace.</p>
<p>The Fame Monster herself will be choosing fan-submitted videos claiming why they deserve to &#8220;get close&#8221; to the superstar.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Buy Music:</strong></span></p>

<p>The contest has just kicked off at Lady Gaga&#8217;s official MySpace profile at: www.myspace.com/ladygaga. The chosen fans will be flown to Boston, equipped with cameras, to document her performance and share their experiences. The day they arrive they will head to the venue to watch Lady Gaga rehearse and meet and interview her. At the end of the night, the winners will hand in their cameras and their footage will be edited together into a comprehensive concert piece fully shot by her biggest fans and, in essence, creating three new official live videos for Lady Gaga.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Mambo Beat Club celebrates 2 year anniversary</em></p>
<p><em>October 1st at Zuzu, Cambridge, Mass</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4816" title="Phish - Time Turns Elastic" src="http://bandweblogs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/phishtimeturnselastic.jpg" alt="Phish - Time Turns Elastic" width="203" height="188" /></p>
<p><strong>Phish</strong> has done it again. The band that loves to keep everybody on the edge of their seats has surprised fans with its latest news.</p>
<p>Phish posted a video of the band recording a brand new track, <strong>&#8220;Time Turns Elastic,&#8221;</strong> at its website, http://www.phish.com.</p>
<p>The video was accompanied by two exciting announcements: &#8220;Time Turns Elastic&#8221; is available NOW, exclusively on the <strong>iTunes Store</strong> (www.itunes.com), and the album that they began recording with producer <strong>Steve Lillywhite</strong> in March 2009 is already complete and <strong>scheduled for release on July 28, 2009</strong>.</p>
<p>The video &#8211; which comes just days before the launch of Phish&#8217;s sold-out North American summer tour &#8211; is the fifth in a series of innovative event announcements from the band. Phish&#8217;s first shows in over four years were announced with a time-lapse video of an artist creating a painting that included the band&#8217;s March 2009 dates at Virginia&#8217;s Hampton Coliseum. Skywriting, Google Earth-style graphics and the Fenway Park organ were enlisted for announcements regarding the band&#8217;s 2009 summer tour, generating tremendous chatter amongst Phish fans.</p>
<p>Those who&#8217;ve been watching closely knew something was up when, just last Thursday, guitarist/vocalist <strong>Trey Anastasio</strong> performed a classical version of &#8220;Time Turns Elastic&#8221; with the <strong>Baltimore Symphony Orchestra</strong>. While he didn&#8217;t say a word about the upcoming announcements, the performance served as a hint of what was to come.</p>
<p>Recalling the evolution of &#8220;Time Turns Elastic,&#8221; Anastasio says: &#8220;I began writing this little tune for Phish &#8211; and it just kept growing and growing.&#8221;</p>
<p>Featuring him alone on acoustic guitar and vocals, the original demo of the song is a tour de force, contrasting life&#8217;s fragile beauty with nature&#8217;s proclivity for renewal. While it clearly had a spot in the Phish canon, the song also emerged as an orchestral work, for Anastasio had long been intrigued by the notion of a piece that would blend the intrinsic elegance of classical music with searing blues-rock guitar. Anastasio&#8217;s original acoustic demo and his orchestral version with <strong>The Northwest Sinfonia</strong>, conducted by <strong>David Sabee</strong> will be released on June 9th by Rubber Jungle Records.</p>
<p>When Phish began recording its new album with producer Lillywhite (<strong>U2, Rolling Stones, Dave Matthews Band</strong>), the band brought &#8220;Time Turns Elastic&#8221; full circle. Using Anastasio&#8217;s initial acoustic demo as a blueprint, they transformed it into an explosive, epic 13-minute, 29-second rock song.</p>
<p>The track will be sold for the price of a standard single and will also be included on Phish&#8217;s forthcoming album, which will be released by the band&#8217;s own <strong>JEMP Records</strong>. Produced in New York City, the as-yet-untitled record is the band&#8217;s first studio album in five years and its second with Lillywhite, who produced its 1996 album, <strong>&#8216;Billy Breathes&#8217;</strong>.</p>
<p>Phish kicks off its sold-out summer tour on May 31st with a concert at <strong>Boston&#8217;s historic Fenway Park</strong> and will play two dates at next month&#8217;s <strong>Bonnaroo Music &amp; Arts Festival</strong>.</p>
<p>The band&#8217;s three-night stand at Hampton Coliseum was met with critical acclaim. <strong>USA Today</strong> praised the group for &#8220;expertly navigating hairpin changes&#8221; and <strong>The New York Times</strong> noted: &#8220;as the opening passage of the anthem &#8216;Fluffhead&#8217; enveloped the room, the eruption of exultation was not merely for the band itself but also for the millions in the Phish diaspora who make up perhaps the most fervent fandom in pop music.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Over a massive, four-hour set, guitarist Trey Anastasio, bassist Mike Gordon, drummer Jon Fishman and keyboardist Page McConnell ripped through dozens of crowd-favorites,&#8221; said <strong>rollingstone.com</strong>, going on to note &#8220;they&#8217;re as well-oiled of a machine as they&#8217;ve ever been.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3933" title="David Virr" src="http://bandweblogs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/davidvirr.jpg" alt="David Virr" width="334" height="443" /></p>
<p>I am pleased to announce that <strong>David Virr</strong> has been chosen as the new Associate Booking Agent at <strong>The Middle East</strong> in Boston.</p>
<p>The Associate Booking Agent will be responsible for booking Boston bands, as well as New England and New York bands here at the club. <strong>Kevin S. Hoskins</strong> will continue to book the national / touring bands for The Middle East Upstairs and Downstairs.</p>
<p>Longtime local music fan and supporter David Virr is probably better known as <strong>Dave Duncan</strong> &#8211; weekend on air personality at <strong>WFNX</strong> (101.7 FM), where he also holds the position of Local Music Director and hosts the station&#8217;s acclaimed local music program, <strong>New England Product</strong>, airing Sunday nights from 11pm to midnight.</p>
<p>His introduction to the local music scene came first as a fan, and later as a DJ on <strong>WERS</strong> (88.9 FM) while attending <strong>Emerson College</strong>. He hosted various shows during his college years, including his own creation, <strong>&#8220;British Accents&#8221;</strong>, a unique radio program highlighting the newest and best music coming out of the UK. The show featured live performances from artists like <strong>Super Furry Animals, Idlewild</strong>, and the first American radio appearance by <strong>Badly Drawn Boy</strong>.</p>
<p>Following his graduation from Emerson, Virr moved the still-popular radio show to <strong>Tufts University&#8217;s</strong> <strong>WMFO</strong>, where he continued to host &#8220;British Accents&#8221; as a community volunteer. In 2003, he joined the on-air staff at WFNX, and in 2005, took over the Local Music Director duties. There, his duties included occasionally booking local bands to play station-sponsored shows around town, and this responsibility allowed him to develop a love and a knack for booking local shows, which has now led him to the Middle East.</p>

<p>Tickets for Dave Matthews Band&#8217;s upcoming summer tour go on sale to the general public beginning today &#8211; and the band is keeping prices low, as usual. &#8220;Tickets for Dave Matthews Band&#8217;s shows remain a great value,&#8221; said <strong>Coran Capshaw</strong>, the group&#8217;s manager and founder of Red Light Management. &#8220;Out of respect for its loyal fans, the band has always made every effort to keep tickets affordable.&#8221;</p>

<p>On June 2nd, RCA Records will release &#8216;Big Whiskey and the Groogrux King&#8217;. Produced by <strong>Rob Cavallo</strong> (Green Day, My Chemical Romance), the record is the follow-up to 2005&#8217;s <strong>&#8216;Stand Up&#8217;</strong>, the fourth consecutive Dave Matthews Band studio album to enter The Billboard 200 at No. 1. The group, which will tour Europe from late June through early July, has sold a collective 35 million units (CD and DVD combined) and &#8211; with over 15 million tickets sold &#8211; <strong>has been named the</strong> <strong>top-drawing American band in the world by Billboard</strong>.</p>
<p>Dave Matthews Band is <strong>Carter Beauford</strong> (drums), <strong>Stefan Lessard</strong> (bass), <strong>Dave Matthews</strong> (vocals, guitar) and <strong>Boyd Tinsley</strong> (violin). Joining the group on tour will be <strong>Tim Reynolds</strong> on guitar, <strong>Rashawn Ross</strong> on trumpet and <strong>Jeff Coffin</strong> on saxophone, who are also featured on the new album.</p>

<p><strong>MySpace Music</strong> announces that one of the most respected names in punk rock <strong>Rise Against</strong> will be playing a club show at <a href="http://www.ttthebears.com/" target="_blank">TT The Bears</a> in Boston on October 7, 2008 as part of <strong>MySpace&#8217;s Secret Show series</strong>.</p>

<p>The Secret Show is a free, exclusive performance for the MySpace community. Rise Against and MySpace are asking fans to donate food which will go <a href="http://www.gbfb.org/" target="_blank">The Greater Boston Food Bank</a> for entry into the show. The band has also partnered with Peta2 for the show who will be distributing literature inside the show.</p>
<p>This is the first ever Secret Show in which MySpace have partnered with a charity. After talking with the band, the program realized this was the perfect band to do this with and an incredible way to kick off the release of their new album.</p>
<p>For their fifth studio album, <strong>&#8216;Appeal To Reason,&#8217;</strong> Rise Against teamed up with Bill Stevenson (Black Flag, Descendants) and Jason Livermore to record at the Blasting Room in Ft. Collins, CO &#8211; the same production team and studio used for &#8220;The Sufferer &amp; the Witness&#8221; and &#8220;Revolutions Per Minute.&#8221;  First single &#8220;Re-Education (Through Labor)&#8221; is already a top 5 Modern Rock hit.</p>
<p><span id="more-2096"></span>Rise Against are vocalist <strong>Tim McIlrath</strong>, bassist <strong>Joe Principe</strong>, drummer <strong>Brandon Barnes</strong> and guitarist <strong>Zach Blair</strong>. In spring 2001, the band released their debut CD <strong>&#8216;The Unraveling&#8217;</strong> on Fat Wreck Chords. After two years of solid touring, Rise Against recorded Revolutions Per Minute (2002), followed by Siren Song Of The Counter Culture produced by Gggarth Richardson (Rage Against The Machine, Melvins, Sick Of It All). The Sufferer &amp; the Witness was released in 2006 and debuted at #10 on the Billboard Top 200 chart.</p>
<p>The Greater Boston Food Bank&#8217;s mission is to help end hunger in eastern Massachusetts. To achieve its mission, The Food Bank feeds more than 320,000 people annually in nine counties in eastern Massachusetts.</p>
<p>MySpace Music has organized more than 150 Secret Shows since the franchise launched in February 2006 with artists like Gnarls Barkley, The Offspring, Neil Diamond, Slayer, Fran Ferdinand, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs performing in cities around the world.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2053" title="Chiki" src="http://bandweblogs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/chiki.jpg" alt="Chiki" width="377" height="376" /></p>
<p>Breakout artist <strong>Chiki</strong> is doing big things with her indie label Razzmastic Entertainment who signed her because of the hype she created for herself in the Boston Club Circuit.</p>
<p>Her debut release <strong>&#8220;1 U Luv&#8221;</strong> is this funky, fresh urban pop/hip hop record with a very strong chorus. There has been much talk from reviews and charts at some Record Pools that this song will be a &#8216;winter heater&#8217; and crossover to Top40! Big talk &#8211; but consider that Chiki has been exploding on the club scene in Boston and NY since 2006.</p>
<p>Chiki is really someone who has paid her dues and gone from ground level up on her own. This is no manufactured popstar as she came from humble family roots. She started out organizing her original street shows in Boston, to performing them in auditoriums and dives, to then being invited to perform for Top Billboard Performing Artists.</p>
<p>This twenty-eight year old singer/songwriter/performer has also started getting immersed in production. She is being groomed by multi-platinum awarded Producer/Engineer <strong>Marcus Rap</strong> who has worked with many big time artists like <strong>New Kids On The Block</strong>, and <strong>members of Parliament Funk and Funkadelics</strong>. Perhaps this is why the combination of Chiki and Marcus have a sound that is all at once Funk and Pop with elements of live drums that can waver to rock at times.</p>
<p>Chiki is being compared to successful artists like Gwen Stefani and Madonna because of her multi-dimensional personality. However, this chick is nothing short of original. With her always changing styling, dynamic stage presence and gorgeous face, she knows how to grab attention. Her vocal abilities let her deliver a Norah Jones Jazz feel but then she can throw in a sweet melodic chorus. Chiki&#8217;s single &#8220;1 U Luv&#8221; is available on Amazon and iTunes.</p>

<p>In their free time, the members of <strong>Lustra</strong> study American History relentlessly. One thing they couldn&#8217;t help but notice: Britain keeps invading the United States. First the Revolutionary War. Then the War of 1812. Just forty-five years ago, the subversive musical &#8220;British Invasion.&#8221;</p>
<p>A pattern has emerged &#8211; and Lustra wants revenge. Rather than wait for the next attack, the band has decided to take matters into their own hands with a preemptive strike: a counter-invasion beginning August 4, 2008 at the Metro in London.</p>
<p>Appropriately, Lustra originally hail from Boston, one of the first sites of colonial dissent (you know, that tea party where everyone went thirsty?), but now reside in sunny Los Angeles, where they have been stockpiling weaponry in a downtown basement for the upcoming surge.</p>
<p>Count among those WMDs the material from their upcoming sophomore album, <strong>&#8216;What You Need &#038; What You Get&#8217;</strong>, featuring new single <strong>&#8220;It&#8217;s a Shame About Boston,&#8221;</strong> a homesick rocker that laments the metropolis&#8217; fabled curse no doubt cast upon it by vindictive foes across the Atlantic. And don&#8217;t forget <strong>&#8220;Scotty Doesn&#8217;t Know,&#8221;</strong> the song that earned Lustra an appearance in the movie <strong>Eurotrip</strong>, tens of thousands of digital sales, almost 3 million MySpace views in a 24-hour period, as well as the distinction of being one of the first independent acts to have a 7-week stay on the Billboard Hot 100 and Pop 100.</p>
<p>Lustra &#8211; they&#8217;re history buffs who want revenge. People of the United Kingdom, consider yourselves warned.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><img width="356" height="357" alt="Juliana Hatfield" title="Juliana Hatfield" src="http://www.bandweblogs.com/julianahatfield.jpg" /></p>
<p><strong>Juliana Hatfield</strong> will preview songs from <em><strong>&#8216;How To Walk Away&#8217;</strong></em>, her 10th solo album in a remarkable 20-year-career, in a special show at Joe&#8217;s Pub in New York City on May 21st, 2008.</p>
<p>The record is scheduled for release on August 19th on Hatfield&#8217;s own label, Ye Olde Records (distributed via Redeye).</p>
<p>Produced by Andy Chase (of revered alt-rock/pop band Ivy) and recorded at Stratosphere Sound, the NYC studio co-owned by Chase, Adam Schlesinger (Fountains Of Wayne) and James Iha (formerly of Smashing Pumpkins), &#8216;How To Walk Away&#8217; features guests Richard Butler (Psychedelic Furs) and Matthew Caws (Nada Surf) on vocals, Jody Porter (Fountains of Wayne) on guitar, Tracy Bonham (violin) and more.</p>
<p>The album, which contains some of Hatfield&#8217;s most candid writing ever, is evocative, layered, and unhurried. And yet, Chase has managed to retain her essential rawness of spirit, smoothing out some rough edges but not all, as evidenced by the loose, danceable <strong>&#8220;Now I&#8217;m Gone,&#8221;</strong> sung and played by Hatfield in one inspired improvisational take. Walking away &#8211; and the loneliness that sometimes results &#8211; is a recurring theme. But while the songs&#8217; protagonists may be fatalistic, they are not without faith.</p>
<p>Even in an outwardly sad song like <strong>&#8220;Such A Beautiful Girl&#8221;</strong> (<strong>co-written by Jason Hatfield</strong>, Juliana&#8217;s brother), hope is not dead; the girl of the title waits patiently for a future that she knows, odds are, will be better than where she finds herself now.</p>
<p>Similarly, the bittersweet yet life-affirming <strong>&#8220;Shining On&#8221;</strong> &#8211; mixed by veteran hit-making producer <strong>David Kahne</strong> (Kelly Clarkson, Paul McCartney, Sugar Ray, the Strokes) &#8211; exhibits a hard-won resilience in the face of disappointment and betrayal.</p>
<p>Fans who visit Juliana Hatfield&#8217;s website and MySpace page (see below for links) can hear &#8220;Shining On&#8221; and check out the blog wherein she writes about songs selected by fans from her sizable repertoire. <em>&#8220;Read it at your own risk &#8211; illusions may be shattered,&#8221;</em> Hatfield warns.</p>
<p>Juliana Hatfield first came to prominence in her teens as a founding member of critically-acclaimed Boston indie rock band the Blake Babies. After four independent albums with the group, Hatfield signed to Atlantic as a solo artist and had a slew of modern-rock hits (including &#8220;My Sister,&#8221; &#8220;Spin The Bottle&#8221; and &#8220;Universal Heartbeat&#8221;). She left the label in 1998, signing to Zoe Records (a Rounder Records imprint) and releasing four well-regarded albums, including 2004&#8217;s &#8216;In Exile Deo&#8217;, named as one of that year&#8217;s 10 best albums by The New York Times&#8217; Jon Parales.</p>
<p>In 2005 Hatfield came full circle, back to full DIY independence, releasing <strong><em>&#8216;Made In China&#8217;</em></strong> (hailed as &#8220;her most urgent, refreshingly unpolished output in years&#8221; by Time Out New York) on Ye Olde Records, her own label. Ye Olde Records released Frank Smith&#8217;s <em>&#8216;Heavy Handed Peace and Love&#8217;</em> in 2007 as well as her collaboration with the band, <em>&#8216;Sittin&#8217; in a Tree&#8217;</em>, a six-song EP.</p>
<p>Hatfield, whose <strong>autobiography will be published by Wiley and Sons in 2009</strong>, recently contributed &#8220;Back To Freedom,&#8221; an exclusive track recorded during the How To Walk Away sessions, to the Green Owl Compilation: A Benefit For the Energy Action Coalition.</p>
<p><strong>The track listing for &#8216;How To Walk Away&#8217; is as follows:</strong></p>
<p>1. The Fact Remains<br />
2. Shining On<br />
3. The Lonely Love<br />
4. My Baby&#8230;<br />
5. Just Lust<br />
6. Now I&#8217;m Gone<br />
7. Remember November<br />
8. So Alone<br />
9. Such A Beautiful Girl<br />
10. Law of Nature</p>
