SXSW 2010 Day Three Twitter Marathon: 24 Reports, From Liars to Local Natives

The big story on SXSW’s third day was the surprise Muse performance at Stubb’s, which was announced during the broadcast of the Fox show Human Target earlier in the week (yes, really) — though Rolling Stone’s own showcase featuring Band of Skulls, Jimmie Dale and Colin Gilmore, Court Yard Hounds, John Doe, Rye Rye and Nneka was a pretty hot ticket, too. Christopher R. Weingarten of @1000TimesYes continued his Twitter odyssey yesterday, tweeting about 24 bands in 14 hours for @RollingStone. Reli

Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell Preview Projekt Revolution

Linkin Park’s annual Projekt Revolution Tour kicks off tonight outside of Boston, so Rock Daily sat down with LP’s Chester Bennington and co-headliner Chris Cornell to talk about this summer’s jaunt. “What I like about doing a touring festival, especially Projekt Rev, is the fact these are bands that I can get really excited about since I’m part of the reason they’re there. For me to be able to bring out Mindless Self Indulgence — a band that I’ve always liked and I’ve felt that they’ve never really gotten the love that they deserve — to see them show up and play with another band like Saosin and 5,000 kids are showing up at noon, just like, ‘Yes, it’s happening.’” Click below for more on Projekt Revolution (which also features the Bravery, Busta Rhymes, Ashes Divide, Hawthorne Heights and Atreyu) and check back in tomorrow for Rock Daily’s full report on opening night. • Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell Preview Projekt Revolution [Photo: Getty]

The Real Ima Robot: Who Needs a Drummer When You Can Hire Droids?

San Francisco rocker Jay Vance had it with broke, debauched, unhygienic and irresponsible bandmates — wait, is he living The Rock Life or what? — so he decided to replace his band’s rhythm section with robots (insert dumb-drummer joke here). Vance built his first rocking droid out of scrap-metal in his bedroom back in 1997; its chest was an autoharp. Now he has a whole band of them, Captured! By Robots. Vance powers the entire group — yes, they play metal (insert rim shot here) — using three computers plus pneumatic actuators that make the robots’ mechanical digits play like rock stars. Captured! By Robots’ opening act is Butterscotch and Cocoa, two bear-inspired robots. Vance’s goal is to create a scenario in which the audience’s human reaction to the robots make them real: “When the robots swear at the crowd and the crowd swears back, that’s when you know they’re real to the audience.” [Photo by Snapcult]

JOE STRUMMER

WHAT'S to like about Joe Strummer, I wondered? Yes, I'll admit it - until last week I knew basically nothing about the Clash, other than that "Rock the Casbah" was a mix-tape staple in high school. But then, neither do many (as the old-timer...

E-Street Band Reunion? Wethinks Yes

Is Bruce Springsteen gearing up for a fall tour with the E-Street Band? A few weeks ago Howard Stern cohorts Artie Lange and Gary Dell’Abate said that New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft told them he was in talks with Bruce’s people about booking him at Gillette Stadium later this year. Take that third hand information for what’s its worth, but last week a Canadian newspaper (only click if you speak French) reported that Springsteen’s people are negotiating to book him at the Belle Centre in
