Actor Tim Robbins curated the WTF?! Festival this weekend in Culver City to raise money for the ailing non-for-profit Actors' Gang arts organization, inviting fellow actor Ben Gibbard and his rock star wife Zooey Deschanel to perform amidst three days of plays, film screenings, and various other artsy happenings.

Essra Mohawk from her seminal album, “Primordial Lovers.” Hear any resemblance between this and David Crosby’s “Deja Vu”? Apparently he used to ask Essra to play this for him all the time.

It was a long night — close to five hours. By the time Bruce Springsteen came on at 11:45 p.m., it felt like we’d seen Crosby, Stills & Nash the day before. But there were sublime, even transcendent, moments on the first night of the 25th Anniversary Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Concerts at Madison Square Garden (they will air on HBO starting November 29). Also some surprises: We’ve...
The 25th Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Anniversary Concerts - Night 1 Madison Square Garden Rocktober 29th this once in a zillion lifetimes concert contained the criznazzyiest of criznazzy collaborations and a super-sized sizzling sing-a-long setlist that set everyone's ears ablaze and heads into a daze (see belows, complied by Thighlandium's favorite son, Mr Pibbums), so much so that a listing of the...
The producers of the two-night extravaganza at Madison Square Garden to celebrate the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s 25th Anniversary promised tons on surprises and they came through in a big way.

Filed under: News , Exclusive While David Crosby continues to plead unsuccessfully for a Byrds reunion, the band's former frontman Roger McGuinn tells Spinner he didn't want to be in a band with Crosby in the first place. McGuinn first met Crosby back in 1960, showed Crosby a few chords on guitar and, as the two became friends, even had dinner with Crosby and his mother in Santa Barbara. But the idea...

Like many, I've been getting back into The Beatles in a big way since the release of their remastered catalog last month. I've been picking up their masterpieces one at a time and the first one I got, REVOLVER , did not disappoint. With an absoultely mind-boggling range of genius songs including "Taxman," "Eleanor Rigby," "Yellow Submarine," "Got to Get You Into My...
A pantheon of indie rockers seeks to revive the reputation of a lost singer-songwriter. Judee Sill could have been a bona fide star. Her first album was also the first for David Geffen's Asylum label, which launched the careers of Jackson Browne, Tom Waits, and the Eagles. She was a regular on the West Coast scene, and she toured with Graham Nash and David Crosby. Even more important than her associates...

Here’s something interesting that David Crosby said about Bob and Joan’s relationship: “David Crosby said he wasn’t sure of Baez’s feelings for Dylan (she said, of course, she was crazy about him – “speaking strictly for me, we both could have died then and there”), but he knew Dylan was crazy about her – worth contemplating [...]
The show ambles into its most comic territory yet with references to masturbation, obsessions with armpit hair, and vegan mouths. It also continues its streak of surprisingly good female cameos with Parker Posey as an obnoxiously restrictive Brooklyn mother, and Bebe Neuwirth as a chilly book editor. The masturbation results from Ray’s offer to sire a child for two lesbian acquaintances, one...
