We’ve discussed the “suckiness” of Coldplay before.  So, we’re thrilled to here that they’re going to get served this weekend (via Huffington Post )which has a great side by side video to boot!).  Can the person in charge of this please wait and see if they win an award at the Grammy’s.  I would pay money to watch them get served on live television while excepting a Grammy for their crap album.  I remember being outraged when the Stones sued The Verve for ripping off a riff.  But I going to be a hypocrit and say that I hope Coldplay makes Joe Satriani a very rich man.  Number of Satriani albums in my collection? Zero.

Rush Limbaugh has a job, but Steve Jones is unemployed (via LA Times)?  Outfreakingrageous!

If your a fan of Paul’s Boutique, you need to read this (via Pitchfork).  Why are the Beasties the first band to figure out a way to fight piracy?  They may be my poster child for the fight against TDOA.
