All Celebrate Brooklyn! performances (excluding benefit concerts) are free and the festival attracts upwards of 250,000 attendees from across New York City to the Prospect Park Bandshell each summer.

Rolling Stone takes a shot at EDM

EDM hasn't been around for as long as Rock n Roll's history and Rolling Stone Italia seems to want it to stay that way   Last week the magazine uploaded a video to its online website that, although seeming satirical, pokes fun at electric dance music.  Rolling Stone claims that that kind of music will die, but guitar solos and rock anthems will not.  The video goes on about how EDM is fake music and that there is nothing like Rock and there will never be anything to beat it so EDM should just stop now.  Rolling Stone focuses on the drug related aspects of EDM and how it almost always is associated with half naked girls, lollipops and neon lights.  The "bad stuff."  But what about the good?  Technology has made some intense advances and now artists can pull sounds from anywhere to make a catchy tune.  Of course there are going to be some duds in a world where music is easy to make, but searching for the gold is worth it.  The video targeting EDM most likely

Should they not renew the lease in the next few weeks, the management company, SL Green, says they will be putting the space on the market and MTV will need to move out by the end of the year. Perhaps the studio doesn’t serve much as much of a purpose as it used to after TRL went off

Foo-Fighters front man Dave Grohl and wife Jordyn Blum welcomed their second daughter Harper Willow into the world on Tuesday April 21st 2009. Harper Willow is a healthy baby, weighing 7 pounds 8 ounces and is 20 inches long. The coupled named their second daughter after Grohl's great uncle. The rockstar says the new baby takes after him and is "loud as hell". Hopefully she'll become a musical genius like her father!! The attractive couple married on August 2nd 2003 and welcomed their first daughter, Violet on April 15th 2006. With all these little foos running around, maybe Grohl will start another side project!
