&lt;p&gt;Song: Left Hand (Suzuki Method)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Artist: Gorillaz&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Before last week, I didn’t know the Suzuki Method was anything more than a song title or the codename for a pimped out racing motorcycle.  This one goes out to a special little lady in a mean, mean motorcycle gang.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://musicrobot.tumblr.com/post/266820460</link><guid>http://musicrobot.tumblr.com/post/266820460</guid><pubDate>Wed, 02 Dec 2009 18:30:00 -0500</pubDate><category>gorillaz</category><category>left hand suzuki method</category></item><item><title>

&lt;p&gt;Track: Gypsy Woman&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Artist: Jonathan Tyler and the Northern Lights&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Found this sweet track off of Tyler’s &lt;i&gt;Hot Trottin’ &lt;/i&gt;(2007) on a recent Austin City Limits sampler.  Fans of the Black Crowes might like it, and according to the folks at Amazon.com fans of Gavin DeGraw will also allegedly like this album. YOU DECIDE.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Get a taste of that old school soda pop!  Honestly, the only reason why I checked this song out in the first place was because it’s off of the album &lt;i&gt;Come Back To The Five And Dime Bobby Dee Bobby Dee&lt;/i&gt; and I remember my grandma always talking about the Five and Dime.   That, and I really like the album art.  This one is for Grandma Clara, hope they have some sweet stereo speakers up in heaven.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://musicrobot.tumblr.com/post/255203190</link><guid>http://musicrobot.tumblr.com/post/255203190</guid><pubDate>Mon, 23 Nov 2009 23:26:17 -0500</pubDate><category>fear</category><category>benjy ferree</category></item><item><title>OkGo unleashes new mind-melting video for “WTF?” in...</title><description>&lt;object width="400" height="336"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/12zJw9varYE&amp;rel=0&amp;egm=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/12zJw9varYE&amp;rel=0&amp;egm=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="336" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;OkGo unleashes new mind-melting video for “WTF?” in support of their upcoming album &lt;i&gt;Of The Blue Colour Of The Sky&lt;/i&gt; out 1/12/2010.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 10.0px Arial;"&gt;Song: Feel Good Together&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 13.0px 0.0px; line-height: 18.0px; font: 10.0px Arial;"&gt;Artist: Drummer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 13.0px 0.0px; line-height: 18.0px; font: 10.0px Arial;"&gt;I always thought the challenge of putting a band together was finding a drummer.  Turns out Black Keys’ drummer Patrick Carney is enjoying a monopoly while the rest of Akron, Ohio’s would-be bands suffer a dismal drummer drought.  When the awesomely bearded Dan “Steve the Pirate” Auerbach (singer/guitar for the Black Keys) went tourin’ a-solo, Carney was left with a lot of time on his hands and enlisted four good natured OTHER drummers to join his merry band and deliver up that good ol’ classic rock n’ roll.  And this is when I turn it over to the band’s bio “Four drummers, not drumming. Patrick would play bass, Jamie [Stillman] guitar,  Jon [Finley] would sing and play guitar, and Steve [Clements], keyboards. But, now, who would drum the drums? What of a band of four drummers, without a fifth to drum those drums?”  The band found their answer in Greg Boyd, of Ohio surf-rock band Ghostman &amp; Sandman. Drummer got in the studio with the goal of getting an album out before winter and whipped up an 11 track LP called &lt;i&gt;Feel Good Together&lt;/i&gt; to be released Sept. 29th, and the future of rock will never the same.  The end.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 13.0px 0.0px; line-height: 18.0px; font: 10.0px Arial;"&gt;Special Note: Drummer is coming to Brooklyn’s Southpaw on 10/8&lt;/p&gt;
