Andrew Bird walks in snow, shoots arrows, supports Obama, has a bit of a sing song, and looks like a DILF while doing so. Oh, and he plays the violin pretty orrite, too.

For their first appearance together in two years, Jack and Meg predictably did something a little different to send off their ol’ pal Conan O’Brien on his last ever gig as host of Late Night, though I’m pretty sure no one could have guessed sister Meg would step out from behind the skins to accompany [...]

Well, it appears that The Basics are back and sadly not with a vengeance a la Bruce Willis, but rather a more “mature” sound. I really tried hard to refrain from using that term because it reminds me of your Dad’s CD collection - but I’m talking the ‘good’ mature - like a fine, [...]

I’m not really into re-posting/circle-jerking other blog’s news, unless I heavily edit/dumb down the piece by throwing in street smart slang in order to pass the work off as my own, but this was too good not to share. Or RT. I don’t know. Social networking terminology has me confused.

The Raconteurs have a new video out which, if it wasn’t in colour, I’d say has Dead Man written all over it. Period costumes, forests and a very Johnny Depp looking Jack White in a big ol’ hat. What more can you ask for?
Autumn de Wilde directed this fabulous video for the Consolers of the [...]

I was going to say something about this video. Maybe it was going to be witty, or somewhat insightful. Anyway, this comment on MySpace TV kind of made forget what I was thinking about. I’ll try and recreate the whole experience for you below:
Oasis - I’m Outta Time

On the rare occasion that “real life” gets in the way of us updating here at 12MC, it can get pretty damn quiet around these here parts. However, given the extreme nature of this news tidbit, I thought I better drop everything and tell you all that, yes, the rumours are true… The Bawdies are [...]

Regina Spektor joined Ben Folds on stage on Conan O’Brien yesterday and not only provided some damn fine backing vocals for the track “You Don’t Know Me”, but also wowed audiences with her amazing ability of squatting awkwardly every time it was her turn to sing.
While I’ve never been a huge fan of the [...]

Another day, another completely uninteresting performance video. This time, with added goats! It seems the forty or so members of Fleet Foxes got together recently and decided to film a totally mundane video for “He Doesn’t Know Why”, the second single off their self titled album. Don’t get me wrong, the album is amazing… but [...]

Quite enjoying being in the cavernous depths (metaphorically) of mid-semester break and all, I made some kind of promise to myself to treat these leisurely two weeks away from a tertiary institute as much as a real holiday as possible. This meant: no showering, no changing clothes, no wearing clothes, no sponsoring starving children, no [...]

In the middle of promoting his new film, Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist, Michael Cera sat down with a really crappy camera person for Myspace TV to talk about his Top 5 albums of all time.

Not bad, George Michael. Not bad at all.
