WEEKLY VOLCANO: YEAH SUCKY ECONOMY, WEEZER SUCKS >>>

Cheap Deal One: The Showbox in Seattle. Is offering a two-fer for its July 30 Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Too Slim & the Taildraggers show. The special is only good for today. Jump on the Showbox Ticketmaster site and enter the password "10daysout" and receive two tickets for the price of one.

Cheap Deal Two: Driven by strong fan demand, Live Nation is extending its half-price ticket offer for a second week for pairs of tickets for Rod Stewart and Def Leppard with Poison â€" both shows at the White River Amphitheater. Chosen directly by fans this past week, the half-price ticket promotion will now include both lawn tickets and select reserved seats at Live Nation amphitheaters. The half-priced ticket offer begins at 12:01 a.m. local time on Wednesday, July 29 on the Live Nation Web site.

Sunn O))): Greg Anderson and Stephen O’Malley discuss Tony Conrad, crowdsurfing, and their new LP on Pitchfork.

Oh, and watch Weezer perform two new songs, “I’m Your Daddy” and “The Girl Got Hot,” on Pitchfork, too. The songs are … not good.
