Win A Pair Of Tickets To The Gossip's Show At Terminal 5

When The Gossip burst into the public consciousness about a decade ago, they specialized in a frizzled version of the blues, with lead singer Beth Ditto working herself into a clothesless frenzy while her bandmates created a joyous squall behind her. More than 10 years later, their style has shifted ... More >>

Ennio Does Judy, Cher, And Mona Even Better Than They Did

Mixing origami and impersonation in inspiring ways, Venice-born Ennio Marchetto just brought his show Ennio: The Living Paper Cartoon to the New York Musical Theatre Festival.

Madeon Gets Hands-On With 39 Pop Songs

​ Just when mashups seemed a horse corpse well flogged by the likes of Glee and Girl Talk, the prodigal son of Discovery-era Daft Punk and the very best of Dr. Luke's blockbuster pop comes along to breathe life into the genre.

Live: Katy Perry Is Soaking In It At The Prudential Center

​ Katy Perry w/Robyn Prudential Center Sunday, June 19 Better than: Being sent to bed without dessert. Pop music can be a funny thing sometimes.

Live: Kylie Minogue Makes Grand Entrance After Grand Entrance At The Hammerstein

Santiago Felipe​Kylie Minogue Hammerstein Ballroom Monday, May 2 Better than: Wearing sweatpants and sitting on the couch.

Staten Island's PS22 Chorus Were The Only Remotely Competent Performers At The Oscars

Oh my dogg, the Oscars were terrible this year: Anyone who is not Trent Reznor, Randy Newman, or Cate Blanchett ("That's gross") is invited to take a seat. The only other entity that came out ahead: Staten Island's own PS22 Chorus, taking a break from prettying up tunes from Katy Perry, MGMT, Arie ... More >>

​• Jenn Sterger, who allegedly received photos of Brett Favre's penis by text, would simply like him to be punished, and won't sue if the NFL will "implement a program" to prevent such unwanted advances as those she faced by cell phone. Oh, honey. These are professional athletes we're talkin ... More >>

Week in Review: Pajamas Are Pussified

Kylie! Photo by Santiago Felipe.​In the week a tiny little boy named Falcon first captured America's heart and then threw up on that heart on live television and even rhymed about doing so in song, we swam feebly in the ocean of headlines involving both Michael Jackson and Paul Anka, DJ AM and ...

Tonight! Hope! Kylie! Lenny! Doug!

I loved Built to Spill in college -- most of my mixtapes might as well have been "Kicked It in the Sun" on a loop for 90 minutes -- but drifted a bit upon my initial stumble into "adulthood," finding the band's gruff, hirsute, meat-and-potatoes-and-then-more-meat indie-guitar jams a bit staid and ... More >>

Live: Kylie Minogue And The Crystal Skull At Hammerstein Ballroom

PIc by Santiago Felipe, more below.​Kylie Minogue Hammerstein Ballroom Sunday, October 11 The enduring image from Kylie Minogue's first-ever concert in New York City -- which only took her "That long in decades," she admits sheepishly, flashing a peace sign -- is when she does the Running Ma ...

Bones' Beat: Lost and Alone at the Museum of Sex

Emiliana Torrini

Live: Alan Braxe at Studio B

Alan Braxe Studio B Saturday, March 7 During my college years my fellow scholars invented something called the "Time-Change Riot." On the night of the spring-forward daylight-saving shift, and thus apparently robbed of a whole hour of bar time, the spurned drinkers, ejected into the streets, el ... More >>
