Lollapalooza Interesting Way of Revealing Lineup

Lollapalooza has crafted a unique way to tease their forthcoming lineup. Stick a board reminiscent of Wheel of Fortune on their site, and slowly reveal letters. So far, we get the letter "o." No Vanna in site though. 

BTW, if you can guess this as is at this very moment, I will give you $10 million dollars.* 

*that is a bold face lie, because someone will do it, and then sue me. 

Keep watching the layers peel away at their website.

Watch the Monsters of Folk New Video For "Dear God"

No band anywhere, but we get a view through a kaleidoscope for the new Monsters Of Folk video for "Dear God."

It may be awhile before we see another Monsters follow up with She and Him, Bright Eyes re-releases and a future My Morning Jacket project coming.
