Tonight I'll be lucky enough to catch Jack White and Alison Mosshart's side-project The Dead Weather at New York City's Terminal 5 at 8 PM. Ask for me if your going too.

Wilco and Feist on Letterman
It may be an oddly strange assumption that Wilco are the best band in America, but the assumption while sounding other-worldly is tastefully accurate. The Chicago group recently released seventh studio record Wilco (The Album) debuted at number four on the Billboard Album Charts this week, the highest ever for the Nonesuch alums.
If anyone missed it, the band recently performed on the Late Show with David Letterman with frontman Jeff Tweedy working the vocals of the single "You and I" with an impossibly cheerful Leslie Feist, just as they did (along with Grizzly Bear's Ed Droste) at their Coney Island show several nights before.

Worst Cover Ever?
Los Angeles screamo/emocore band Confide have been recieving some "not so good" accolades for their cover of The Postal Service's single "Such Great Heights." And by Not So Good accolades I mean possibly the worst cover rendition in recent memory.
Comments on the cover rage from:
"this song has made decide once and for all to become an athiest."
"just got idiot shivers from watching this."
And ...
"This is worse than the new Woody Allen movie."
See for yourself, or just watch the original Postal Service version or Iron & Wine cover.

New Dead Weather Video: Treat Me Like Your Mother
Jonathan Glazer's newest video for The Dead Weather's single "Treat Me Like Your Mother" off their album Horehound (out this Tuesday) scores the simple concept of Man vs. Woman. Man (Jack White) and Woman (Alison Mosshart) stagger towards each other in the backyards of a California-looking suburb and discuss their differences in a classic Western-American tense - shooting the Hell out of one another.
Simple logic would tell you that neither can be harmed by mortal weapons.
