Listen to last night’s Sonic Youth concert here, on NPR. You can also stream the opening set by Be Your Own Pet.

This is a screen shot of CMJ.com yesterday, just two days before their Cleveland festival. You only need to scroll halfway down the page to find a reference to the fest.

Over on Weird Al’s website, he wrote something that makes no sense to me.

Tim Sloane of Ijamsville, MD asks: Al, which of these purchasing methods should I use in order to make sure the most profit gets to you: Buying one of your albums on CD, or buying one of your albums on iTunes?

I am extremely grateful for your support, no matter which format you choose to legally obtain my music in, so you should do whatever makes the most sense for you personally. But since you ASKED… I actually do get significantly more money from CD sales, as opposed to downloads. This is the one thing about my renegotiated record contract that never made much sense to me. It costs the label NOTHING for somebody to download an album (no manufacturing costs, shipping, or really any overhead of any kind) and yet the artist (me) winds up making less from it. Go figure.

Seems to be an absolute crappy deal, but who knows. Anyone care to shed any light into this?
