Apple’s foray into the tablet market is dubbed the iPad, and looks like MADTV already saw this coming.

If you missed the “Hope for Haiti” telethon, this definitely was a highlight. Written in a matter of days, Jay-Z and U2 collaborated on the track, “Stranded(Mon Amour).” Check it.

Last night was Weezer’s first show since Rivers Cuomo was injured in an accident when his tour bus crashed back in December. Playing a show at Florida State University, Hayley Williams from Paramore joined the band during the show for a very cool version of “Say It Ain’t So.”

Everyone has an opinion on the NBC late night situation between Jay Leno and Conan O’Brien. Here’s where Davey and Jade from AFI stand.

Smashing Pumpkins Release New Song!!

Spin likes it. What about you?

killers1 The Killers announced that they are going on an indefinite hiatus after their Australian tour in February. Guess that covers album people were talking about is going to take longer than previously thought. Did you hear the cover of “Hotel California” by the Eagles?

In an attempt to get us to listen to an entire album(like we wouldn’t have), MGMT has said that they will not release any singles from the next album. Does this mean no awesome, trippy videos like the one below?

Around here, life is grand - go somewhere else to find grumpy thoughts.
Here are some things about me as a member of civilization:

1. I bowl a modest 457 series; not too shabby at all, and apparently, impressive to pleasant-looking ladies.
2. When I walk into an art gallery, I cross my arms. I look at art better with my arms crossed. I look for a few minutes, read the blurb, and move on with a considering expression on my face. Yes, even the stuff at 111 Minna.
3. I like electro, retro, and house like ghetto. Man, Green Velvet is awesome

You'll most likely see me:
a) eating at El Farolito in the Mission for burritos and quesadillas. Dee-lish.
b) getting a haircut and some crazy style at Madusalon on Divisadero. That place has great music too.
c) walking my dog on Union St/SF or riding my bike with him to Safeway in the Marina. Exercise for all.
d) inhaling pizza from Zach's in Oakland or Garrett's in Campbell. Pizza is sustenance after partying.
e) surfing at Manresa or Pleasure. Nothing like man against wave.

Fav bands in quadruples(in no particular order):
Cure, Green Day, Muse, NIN,
Silversun Pickups, AFI, Arcade Fire, Radiohead
Dandy Warhols, White Stripes, LCD Soundsystem, Tool

And now answers to one of those silly surveys:

Name? Pedro. Vote for me.

Where do you live?
box number 4586, underneath the Harrison St. off-ramp of the Bay Bridge

What's the vibe like?
noisy, spacious, yet moldy.

We're headed to the bar, what are you having?
anxiety issues due to my insecurities around pleasant-looking girls

First album that you purchased?
"C is for Cookie-Cookie's favorite songs". track 7 "Goodbye Little Cookie" always brings a tear to my eye. Thankfully, I didn't know about poetry writing in the closet until high school.

First concert?
Spring, 5th grade. I played trombone. It involved a lot of spit.

Favorite movie?
the mandatory 20 min. sexual harrassment video shown to us during orientation here at work. informative yet entertaining.

Item you'd like obsessed Japanese fans to send to you?
pictures of themselves outside my house flashing the peace symbol. if they're obsessed as you say they
are, they should know where i live.

Any final advice for LIVE 105 Activists?
Be greedy as possible and take advantage of the presales and goodies that you can get because you're not getting anything free from me. Except this piece of advice. So, I guess I lied.

Here's some stuff I've been listening to lately, and maybe you'll be listening to it yourself. I'm always open for recommendations, so hit me up.
