please take a moment to Rock the F out to - Late of the Pier

I caught these guys on Sunday night before The Kills after an amazing and exhausting weekend at Coachella last month, and they kept me rocking though I was totally burned out. God knows how old they all are since none of them look a day over 16, but they rock out hard with sick synths and batty on stage antics and lots and lots of energy. So what better way to kick off your summer than with Late of the Pier!

please take a moment to Rock the F out to - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

I've loved Yeah Yeah Yeahs since they blew on to the scene about 6 years ago. I was utterly obsessed in college and then took a break after a disappointing appearance at Coachella 4 years ago, but this year's was stellar and I have been listening to Zero, Runaway & Heads Will Roll like it's my job. Ladies & germs please enjoy!

photo envy - Ben Rayner

Ben Rayner is a fantastic photographer that's shot a lot of my favorite indie artists. You should check out his site to catch his other editorial, personal & fashion photography, but below I've posted a round up of some of my favorite acts who also happened to play at Coachella (ok they're basically all Lykke Li pics ) & the undeniably intriguing Eddie Redmayne (above.)

A blurry Jamie Hince of "The Kills" & the last photo that came out

Quite possibly one of the most underated & poignant comedies on TV...

I absolutely love How I Met Your Mother [so much that after it's 1st season when I saw star Josh Radnor at Coachella 4 years ago I followed him for all of 10 seconds] and really like how poignant and relevant the show is for the dating age we live in. Monday night's ep was called "The Three Days Rule," & focused on how long a guy should take to call a girl he likes. Neil Patrick Harris blows you away in the first 2 minutes of the show with the perfect explanation as to why "because Jesus came up with it," & why texting is just as bad. Check out the ep here.

More Coachella Madness

For some odd reason my pics of Paul and a couple others from Saturday wouldn't upload, but I'll add them when they finally do, but I was able to include the video I took of him doing "Blackbird."
