Record Store Day-ve

International Record Store Day coincides with Bastard Nuptial Day, and let's all get excited.
For Record Store Day 2014 (April 19), Jack White has revealed plans to issue the “world’s fastest released record” ever, moving from studio to store in record time. According to White’s Third Man Records website, the guitarist will perform a live version of “Lazaretto,” the title track of his upcoming solo album on the morning of April 19 at a special fan show inside the Third Man store in Nashville. From there, the original acetate will be rushed to nearby United Record Pressing, where vinyl 45s will be made, utilizing images taken from the recording session for cover art. The finished singles will then be whisked back to the Third Man Records store for waiting fans to snap up in what’s sure to be an instant sell-out.


Dave: Mr. White is feeling slighted that Elvis Costello got the wedding invite and he did not. He's trying to get noticed. Can you show him a little love?

No Fun Zone?


Last Thursday . . . a tall man with a device resembling a 1980s-era cellphone was going door to door on Bourbon Street. The man was David Woolworth, an acoustics expert hired by the City Council, and he was taking decibel measurements as part of an effort to better manage the volume dial in a city long famous for its street musicians, boisterous crowds and perpetual parades.
Dave, are they trying to sanitize Bourbon Street before we arrive? What the hell man?
