Tidbits:

Check out “Last Call” from Sushirobo’s upcoming album, The Light-fingered Feeling Of Sushirobo.

Please stop selling promo copies of Beulah’s Yoko on eBay.

Excellent Columbus Alive article about the last-minute meltdown of the More Than Music Fest

And from 12XU:

The Spoon EP that Pitchfork reported on in March is
now ready for release, on September 1st as a matter of
fact. Though technically there’s not to be an “official”
U.S. release, these here new-fangled interweb music stores
should make it fairly easy to obtain, even if you live
under an overpass in Secaucus (which reminds me, Hi Toothless Manny!)

Tracklist:

The Way We Get By (album version)
Metal Detektor (from Music Choice, previously unreleased)
I Am The Key (from Music Choice, previously unreleased)
Anticipation (from WFMU, previously unreleased)
Someone Something (from KCRW, previously unreleased)
Me & The Bean (from KCRW, previously unreleased)
Advance Cassette (from WNYU, previously unreleased)

Videos:

1) The Way We Get By
2) Small Stakes
3) Jonathan Fisk

If you can’t wait for the videos, MTV’s got ‘em all, including the
hot-off-the-presses ‘Jonathan Fisk’.

Plus, I wonder if Spoon’s being all like, “Yo, your bird’s a pussy. He got his ass all tangled up in twine and shit. Our bird’s fucking tough. He’s got motherfucking Laser-Eyes“.
