Is that Bono on the roof again?
Improv Everyone pulled a hefty stunt by faking an impromptu U2 gig on a rooftop across from Madison Square Garden (on the same night of a U2 show there). Of course, this can cause a stir and some consequences from the law. But in the end, everyone had a good time.

Another source for the latest White Stripes single
A while back, Mr. Duffy posted a place to download the newest single from the White Stripes. The link expired so here’s another place to listen to it.
It’s a little surprising to hear Jack sing like the Scissor Sisters, but somehow I like the way they’re evolving. Their new album is out the first Tuesday in June.
If you’d like to make the song your very own, you can buy it on iTunes (or just visit the page to see Jack White’s new formation of facial hair).
