An unknown number of fans without tickets reportedly breached the security fence at Lollapalooza on Saturday during Rage Against The Machine’s set. It caused a crowd surge that seriously injured fans and security personnel near the main stage. The band, stopping their set several times, pleaded with fans to back up. They didn’t. MTV reports:

The reunited group opened with a trio of their bombastic best, including "Testify" and "Bulls on Parade," setting off multiple circle pits in the crowd and sending a stream of bodies - which appeared to be equally comprised of crowd-surfers and panicked fans trying to escape the crush - over the barricade in front of the stage. By the third song, there was a steady, at times frenzied, rush by hundreds of fanson the east side of the stage attempting to leave the area. The relentless fury of the music, combined with the sense of chaos in the crowd, made for some tense moments. Concertgoers trying to go up a set of cement steps were pushed backwards or blocked from exiting as a bull rush of male fans barreled down the steps, knocking people over like dominoes. The crowd surge got so bad that De la Rocha stopped the show on three separate occasions, pleading with fans to take a step back to avoid crushing the audience members up front…It was unknown at press time how many injuries occurred during the show, but an MTV reporter near the front of the stage witnessed at least a dozen dazed, limping and panicked fans being escorted to the medical tent, including one who was taken out on a backboard."

I went to a RATM/Wu-Tang show in Charlotte back in 90-something and when my buddy stepped into the aisle to go get a beer, he got elbowed in the jaw. In conclusion, if you ever see Rage Against the Machine in concert, it might be a good idea to expose yourself to gamma radiation first.

I’ve been meaning to include this in one of our music mix sessions for weeks now. But I wanted to share it on a Wednesay, preferably at like 1 am or something.
But I have repeatedly forgotten to push it out there for a least a month now.
So today is Thursday and even though Tuesday didn’t go yesterday, it is at least gone already.

Now, that I have Tuesday out of the way finally, I’m going to have to find some other Days of the Week.

Omar Kadafi is considering kicking off a reality tv show to recruit replacement back up dancers for his world wide tour now that he is off the terrorist list.

Here’s one song - David Bazan’s "Cold Beer & Cigarettes" - off the compilation put together (with all proceeds going to) to support net neutrality (a very good thing), Eliot Van Buskirk of Wired’s Listening Post blog has more here: http://blog.wired.com/…et-co.html

I always loved the weirdness of The Orb. That said, they were always trying to be purposefully weird. There is something to be said for music or a band or an artist that ends up with something that is very weirdly beautiful by accident as opposed to someone that tries to be weirdly beautiful.

I have always preferred to take weird in large doses and enjoy it whether it is produced or accidental, weird beggars can not be too choosy.

This Perpetual Dawn video is probably weirder than the music itself (not counting the lip action sound). Its not my favorite Orb song but I do like it.

Yeah, Prince is a great example of the 80’s take on love and sex. Very selfish attitude as opposed to say the freelove musical endeavors of the sixties (don’t you want somebody to love comes to mind by jefferson airplane with that orgasmic yodeling that they crescendo into a few times like a tantric sex instructor using a jack rabbit.

Then there’s the seventies super drugged up sex music where you feel almost obligated to pop a couple qualudes (the serious topic of Bloghaus in Vegas during BlogWorld last year where it was disclosed that Barack Obama was a fan of qualudes). watch Heavy Metal and sweat it out with your ol’ lady or ol’ man.

Prince comes in during the 80’s not meaning to cause any trouble or any harm, but high on himself (did he ever have a coke problem, or maybe coke wasn’t a ‘problem’) and just lets women absorb him like he’s some sort of mist in a sauna soothing their pain.

Even as he goes into the 90’s he’s still a bit self sexually centered in his music. The extra experienced older man (with the face of a teenager) and the eyes of a prostitute haunted just a bit by a life lived very well. At this point he has hit his peak in both sexual expression and in music and molds the two together to let the world know just that, while the rest of the world in the 90’s goes through a bit of a deconstruction of music and sex getting back to grungy basics, disco sex marathons and gangsta ho handedness, all in preparation for the big burst. . .

of the internet, internet sex, and 50 billion ways to capture on video, images, and sound every kinkified way that a person, quasi-human or animal can have sex, learn how to have sex and learn how to film learning how to have sex to broadcast yet again and again and again on the internet while just about every taboo ever conceived is being ravaged like a 19 year old guy with a shaved but dressed up in a maidenly dress in any given prison in the United States.

What the hell, was I talking about?

Oh yeah, Prince. Great composer, musician and singer, but he’s not going to get you off on any given night of the week unless he’s physically present.

Yeah, this is a great song by Bill Withers originally. While some of the remakes have been tremendous, the original still sticks with me.

Not sure I’m going to lay around naked to it, but if you are looking to put on a good case of melancholy on a rainy day, this will definitely get you in the groove.

As a note of caution, you probably should only listen to it alone, if you are going to see the person you are missing the next day.

Man, I miss the Smashing Pumpkins. one of the most seminal groups while i was growing up, one of the most ingrained in my subconcious, the music still has a huge impact on me and the band still remains one of my absolute, all time, no holds barred, hands down favorites.

This is an alternate version of the song Here’s To The Atom Bomb which closed out the very secretively released MACHINA II/The Friends and Enemies of Popular Music the second half of the story being told on MACHINA/The Machines of God. I don’t caer what you say: MACHINA and Adore were two fantastic albums. (The original version of this song was a B-Side on the Try, Try, Try single, and is a bit more messy and noisy.)

good luck finding a physical copy of MACHINA II… it was printed largely out of spite and there were only 25 vinyls pressed. You can download it for free direct from the bands website however.
