Internet time is an interesting phenomenon. In many cases, situations can be reported on as they are happening. In reporting online, often times there is no editor. Direct live feed to the printing press. Crazy times. Here’s a round-up of interesting happenings:

Van Halen tour cancelled - What seemed to be a train which one would think would never actually start, turned out to be a success… until Eddie’s demons came back, it seems

Nine Inch Nails release album Ghosts literally overnight - In a true sign of things to come, Nine Inch Nails has released over 2 hours of music on a Sunday night, no less. All instrumental, in various forms of release, including a free version. All music released under the Creative Commons license

Radiohead festival frenzy continues - For a band who has publicly said touring is painful, Thom Yorke no longer seems so afraid of flying & crowds

The plot to kill Mick Jagger - And all this before they even heard Dirty Work

YouTube to add live video before the end of the year - It no longer seems crazy that YouTube could become a network to stand among the traditional TV giants. But the question must be asked again… what are their bandwith bills!?

Here come more Primaries - What songs would sum up the campaigns of Hilary, Barack, & McCain these days?
