The Kooks Talk Stones Tour and New “Konk” LP, Plus Free Download Poppy Brit rockers the Kooks are unleashing their second album, Konk, on April 14th. The record, named after the famed studios where the LP was recorded, finds the band recapturing their debut’s distinctly English charm with heavier hooks and Cheap Trick licks. To mark the release, Rock Daily is offering up an exclusive download: a live version of the band’s new single “Always Where I Need To” recorded in February at London’s Astoria. And here’s a bonus: When the Kooks were in New York recently, our video cameras captured singer-guitarist Luke Pritchard and drummer Paul Garred playing one of eighty demos that didn’t wind of making the album, and dishing some dirt on what went on behind the scenes when they toured with the Rolling Stones. Keep reading for the band’s spring tour dates, too. Click here to download the “Always Where I Need to Be (Live)” MP3 May 18 – San Diego, CA @ House of Blues May 19 – Los Angeles, CA @ The Wiltern May 24 – Vancouver, BC @ Commodore Ballroom May 25 – George, WA @ Sasquatch!

Good Charlotte: The Six-Pack Q&A Rolling Stone posed six questions to Good Charlotte twins Joel and Benji Madden. They recalled the times they smoked on airplanes and bummed cigarettes off 30 Rock stars, and praised Interpol for their honesty. What’s the most rock star thing you’ve ever done? Benji Madden: I smoked a cigarette on a plane one time in my seat, how about that? I got a little tattoo on my face, I’ll never be able to work another real job so I consider that to be kinda forcing myself to stick to music. Who’s the coolest person you ever met? Joel Madden: I think Billie Joe Armstrong is probably one of the coolest musicians I’ve ever met because he’s so down to earth for being in such a big band. Benji Madden: I bummed a cigarette off of Alec Baldwin, that was pretty cool. Joel Madden: I met Eric Clapton one time, he was really cool. What’s on your current playlist? Joel Madden: My favorite band right now is the Kooks. Benji Madden: Oh, that Silverchair album would have to be one of them. And I just got a Chimera record, It’s pretty dope, really good riffs. What was your favorite album when you were fourteen years old? Joel Madden: Probably Dookie, Green Day. Benji Madden: Nevermind by Nirvana. That was a big one for me. What’s the essence of Good Charlotte? Benji Madden: I think the soul of Good Charlotte is just feeling good. A lot of bands don’t really like each other. I read an Interpol interview the other day, it was a really good interview because it was showing a different aspect of a band. They don’t really like each other — they work together and they kinda exist together and that’s how they like it. They’re like, “we didn’t get into this band looking for friends.” The three of us actually started this band when we were in tenth grade and I think we still have that attitude. I think what defines our band is really that you know we’re just living our dream and making records that we love and having a good time. What happens when the band gets drun

Coachella Day Three: Trailers, Beer and Gaydar For this year’s Coachella, we’ve dispatched our very own indie rock star reporter, Ed Droste of Brooklyn band Grizzly Bear. April 29th 2:04pm: Having a trailer makes life much easier. I can leave things there, there is booze. We are right next to the Klaxons trailer and CSS which is nice since they are the bands I’ve been hanging out with the most. Lots of British bands with tude around today. Kaiser Chiefs, The Kooks, The Feeling. Everyone has such outfits. As I said earlier today “I’m letting myself go” with my cut off jean shorts and a white t-shirts. I think people think I’m working here. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone came up and asked me to go get them more beer. Hah. Anyhoo — things are running so smoothly. Mika played while I ate lunch. He’s definitely gay. Still having a great time though and everyone I’ve actually met has been incredibly friendly. The cute boys from Boston who decorated the trailers made us amazing stuff for the room. A little toy piano with our name painted on it, a great papier-mache Mexican boxer dude hanging from the ceiling. Our sound guy (who’s seen it all with TV on the Radio) said this is one of the best festivals there is. Well organized, friendly people. Chill. I must agree. Resounding thumbs up. Gonna head over to our stage real soon. The temperature today is much more bearable today as well. A nice last day to an amazing festival. 5:09 p.m. Just got back from our set. It was really fun/funny. I had a total vocal crack in the bridge of “Knife” where I sounded like a teenager going through puberty. Oh well too much Coachella in my system! My own fault I suppose, haha. Crowd was super nice and I was shocked how many people came out to such an early show. Going to see CSS soon, can’t wait! 10:49 p.m. It feels so incredibly late. Tonight was so much fun. I got to see a lot of people I wanted to if ever so briefly. Have been overwhelmed b
