Primus dropped into Late Night w/ Jimmy Fallon last night and tore through their classic “Jerry was a Race Car Driver” off 1991′s Sailing the Seas of Cheese. They also played “Lee Van Cleef” off of their new album, Green Naugahyde. READ MORE

The powerhouse duo of Jay-Z and Kanye West came out so huge in 2011 with the release of the Watch The Throne
They also encored with “Niggas in Paris” regularly and would actually go on to repeat the track a few times depending on the energy in the crowd. Like seven times in New Orleans. Or seven times in Detroit. So it’s not surprising that they chose to officially release the video for “Niggas in Paris” through the proxy of their live shows; the vocal mix itself seems to sound like a mix of both the studio version and a live version but the video is all live and full of quick cuts and lasers and shit.
It even comes with a epilepsy warning at the beginning (bonus!)…

It’s pretty remarkable to see these guys on late-night TV already (is that some sort of record?). They just jumped onto the scene last fall at CMJ and have been getting an amazing amount of hype ever since. But, there’s good reason for that hype.
Check out why…. READ MORE

Reggie Watts @ The Mezzanine, 2/1/12 | © Pete Merriman
While it could be old news to other folks who’ve followed his work for years, last Wednesday night was my first exposure to the comedian / musician / actor known as Reggie Watts. As part of San Francisco’s annual SketchFest, Reggie Watts was in town to do a Reggiedency, a four-night showcase spread between a bunch of different venues in SF. The show I caught was at Mezzanine and while I missed the openers of Garfunkel and Oates, the show I saw was action packed. READ MORE

Give Me All Your Luvin', Madonna!
There was obviously a ridiculous amount of hype surrounding this year’s Super Bowl Halftime show with Madonna, but I think she came out and totally slayed the show last night. The performance started with some old-school gladiator shit thrown on the top of “Vogue,” which medleyed itself into “Music” not too far after the song started. Stages were shifting, performers were dancing themselves in and out of the picture, and then LMFAO makes an appearance with a “Music” / “Party Rock Anthem” mashup performed live. We even got a little “Sexy and I Know It” before the new Madonna song showed up. Seeing Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. dance on stage with Madonna was a treat, and M.I.A. took the chance to stay at the top of the headlines today by flipping off the camera live on her “I don’t give a shit” line in the song. Then somehow Cee Lo showed up leading a drum line which brought out “Open Your Heart” and “Express Yourself.” Then “Like a Prayer” made everyone feel like they were in church…
