Tegan and Sara’s Coachella Blog: Prince, The Raconteurs and “The Dog Whisperer”

Tegan and Sara will be filing dispatches from Coachella. Here is their opening entry. Click here for more from Rolling Stone at Coachella. Tegan: We watched The Dog Whisperer this morning when we got up, that helped us ease into Coachella. Sara: It’s like a safe place to watch Cesar Milan talk to the dogs. I own two seasons of The Dog Whisperer on DVD, and I don’t even like dogs, I’m a cat person. T: It really trained us. Then we got up and we got on a cart, a really nice girl came and gave us a ride to our dressing room, and it’s covered in stars and butterflies and rainbows and hearts. It’s super girly, it’s hilarious. S: The people who do the trailers say they have a sweet spot for us every time we play, so they put extra effort into it. T: For each artist, they get artists to paint funny paintings. The one we got this year is two bunnies and their umbilical cords are all tangled up. Which is kind of funny because yesterday we got a fan video for the song “Floorplan” on our new record, and in it there’s a little girl character that’s supposed to be Sara and she’s wearing bunny slippers and they’re all evil at the end, so when we walked in today and it was the bunnies I was like, oh my God! Then we ate, so we took another ride in the cart. S: And that was scary for me, because Tegan and I did not go to camp, our mother was a single parent and camp was totally out of the question. We found out later because she went to Catholic boarding school, she doesn’t like communal living without parents, so she enforced a no-communal living rule when we were growing up, so we have never done camp really. Now we’re at Coachella and we’re in the catering tent and all the bands are there and I’m sweating profusely, I’m very uncomfortable, I’m afraid everyone hates us. I see people looking at me, I think maybe we know each other. I avoid eye contact. The next time we play Coachella I hope we are the size of Prince … T: We are the size of Pr

On the Scene With Steven Tyler, Carmen Electra, Elijah Wood and Others at the Coachella Parties

Thanks to its proximity to L.A., Coachella is known not only for top-notch headliners and broiling temperatures, but for its celeb-packed VIP area and plentiful parties. Junkie XL got the ball rolling early on Thursday by performing an hour-long set on the Coachella Express, the Amtrak train that took concert goers from Union Station in downtown Los Angeles to Indio. “It was a great experience,” he said. “I’m from Holland and it reminded me of how they do things there. Public transportation is big and they always try to make it comfy and fun. So, I thought of that and how they do it when I decided to do this. And, it’s very green and a great initiative that Coachella took.” Junkie XL’s train set included some of his remixes and original material done in what he said was “super amateurish but really fun. People were dancing the aisles.” We didn’t mean to be rude, but we just had to ask how (er, why) he was wearing a brown leather jacket in the midday desert sun. “Leather is a statement,” he laughed. “If I don’t wear it, I burn like a lobster.” Fair enough. Meanwhile, Rock Daily bumped into Steven Tyler (with two beefy bodyguards) in the VIP area and spotted Sean Penn camping out with the civilians, demonstrating his commitment to green living. We also caught up with Elijah Wood at the Viceroy Hotel in Palm Springs midday on Saturday where the big talk was that night’s Prince show. “It’s going to be great,” Wood said. “He’s smart. He’ll play the hits. I saw Aphex Twin, the Breeders, and Datarock [Friday] and they were extraordinary. Coachella is great because anytime you can be in a massive field with any number of bands that are amazing, it’s a good thing.” Over at the BPM Hpnotiq Smurf House, at a private residence in Rancho Mirage on Saturday, Good Charlotte’s Joel Madden spun records in the afternoon while his girl

Fricke’s Picks: The Octopus Project, “Murder Ballads and Disaster Songs 1913-1938? and Roy Wood

Happy Machine Music Machines don’t make music — people do. And going by the bright action-packed gurgle, bam and squeak of their third album, the Octopus Project — a mostly instrumental analog-electronics dance band from Austin, Texas — are smart pop scientists and total party animals, like Stereolab with happy feet. And a stopwatch — the thirteen songs on Hello, Avalanche (Peek-A-Boo) are all tightly composed bundles of synthesized whoop and circus-calliope cheer, dotted with throaty Duane Eddy-treble guitar and powered by prancing-elephant drumming. The closest thing here to conventional club-remix electronica is the thumping near-techno of “MMAJ.” But for all of the willful yesterday in the Octopus Project’s discothèque blend of Switched-On Bach and Kraftwerk’s Autobahn, there is a delightful, disciplined modernism in the album’s brisk parade of hooks and the songs’ densely layered brevity. Compared to the purple-surf rock of “Bees Bein’ Strugglin’ ” and the mermaid-choir effect of Yvonne Lambert’s theremin in “I Saw the Bright Shinies,” the Prodigy are so 1997. Apocalypse Then American folk and blues were, in the early twentieth century, more than entertainment. They were broadcasting. Long before there was a Fox News, country pickers the Skillet Lickers, the balladeer Blind Alfred Reed, the slide guitarist and yodeler Cliff Carlisle and the prewar blues legend Charlie Patton were the “We Report, You Decide” network of their day: adapting the terrible things that happened to good people in real life — floods, murders, train wrecks, disease, crop failures — into lyrical bulletins, waltz tunes and moral hymns that long outlived the headlines and police reports that inspired them. People Take Warning! Murder Ballads and Disaster Songs 1913-1938 (Tompkins Square) is nothing but that bad mojo made poetic. You already know some of these tales, in electrified form — Kansas
