FYI

Since Beck just released Modern Guilt, and celebrated a birthday this week, it only makes sense that we do an FYI on Mr. Hansen.

Well it’s Independence Day, so it only seems fair that we do an FYI on The Presidents of the United States of America.

Since the Jersey natives are on the road this summer, and have a new album coming out sometime this year, then it seems like a perfect opportunity for an FYI on Blues Traveler.

This wonderful and summery weather makes me wanna listen to some Blind Melon. Besides, the band has reunited, released a new album earlier this year and are currently on tour. So, it’s a perfect scenario for and FYI on Blind Melon.

It’s a perfect time to do an FYI on Weezer, since they just released their sixth studio album this past Tuesday (June 3).

Unfortunately, May is almost over, which means less Pearl Jam. So, let’s end this month with a final FYI about them.

How could I not do an FYI on Mother Love Bone?

Let’s do an FYI on Mike McCready’s side project, cause Mad Season was spectacular and it’s a nice, rainy day in May.

Before Mother Love Bone and Pearl Jam, Jeff Ament and Stone Gossard were in a band called Green River. Since Green River is reuniting for Sub Pop’s 20th Anniversary gig and I’m celebrating Pearl Jam this month, it’s a perfect time for an FYI on Green River.

This was the first FYI that I did here at b5, so since it’s May, it’s time to bring it back.

Since STP is fully reunited let’s do an FYI on their short, but awesome, catalogue.

Let’s check out the quintessential festival from the 90’s, since this year’s line up has been announced and it’s founding fathers (Jane’s Addiction) are getting back together, at least just for one show for now.

I’m bringing back the FYI on STP again, because they’re everywhere right now, because of their reunion and all.

Portishead is back from a long hiatus and they should have a big month this April with their current tour in Europe, a headlining spot at Coachella and the release of Third.
