St. Vincent And The Bird

Singer and multi-instrumentalist Annie Clark, aka St. Vincent, has a busy fall planned that includes a co-headlining run with fellow jack-of-all-trades Andrew Bird.

Clark will hit the road next month for a series of headlining appearances that includes stops at the All Points West Festival in Jersey City, N.J., and the Virgin Mobile Festival in Columbia, Mo., as well as a handful of club dates in the Northeast and Canada.

The singer’s month-long run with Andrew Bird kicks off September 29 at The Murat Theatre in Indianapolis and will make its way across the East Coast and Midwest before wrapping October 28 at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C.

St. Vincent’s road trip is in support of her latest release, Actor, which has earned praise from places like NPR, which called it “a surreal sonic wonderland,” and the New York Times, which said it “defies categories.”

Clark made her national television debut last week, when she appeared on “Late Show with David Letterman.”

Michael Jackson Rehearsal Video

AEG Live has released a short clip of Michael Jackson rehearsing with his dancers. The video, which was shot at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on June 23 shows the artist interacting with his dancers and musicians. At the end of one number you can hear an off-screen director instructing “hold for applause, hold for applause … fade out.”

RIAA Triumphs Over Usenet.com

In what is one of the more fascinating copyright infringement cases involving the Internet, the Recording Industry Association of America has won its lawsuit against Usenet.com.

First of all, Usenet.com is not the same as Usenet, the decentralized system of message boards no one owns or controls. Instead, Usenet.com acts as a front end, archiving Usenet posts and selling access to customers for just under $20 a month.

Here’s how it worked. Although most Internet service providers also give their customers access to Usenet, rarely do the same providers archive Usenet posts. Plus, many providers pick and choose which Usenet groups they’ll allow access to.

While many of those groups only contain text messages on various subjects, a large section of Usenet is devoted to binary postings of music, video, photos and software that often are infringement cases themselves just waiting to happen.

However, many Internet providers give their customers only limited access to Usenet groups. Because most providers don’t bother archiving Usenet postings, a Britney Spears song today may not be there tomorrow.

Plus, many providers have download limits when it comes to Usenet which are so low that downloading even a single large media file would max out a user’s monthly allowance.

But Usenet.com was different. By selling Usenet access, Usenet.com archived postings so that a Metallica track someone posted last month, or even last year, was still available for downloading today. Plus, Usenet actively promoted itself as a portal to copyrighted music.

The RIAA filed an infringement lawsuit against Usenet.com in 2007. Earlier this week U.S. District Judge Harold Baer ruled in favor of the organization. Furthermore, the judge also nixed Usenet.com's “Betamax” defense – the landmark U.S. Supreme Court 1984 decision in Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios – that ruled makers of home video recorders were not liable for copyright infringement, and that viewers had a right to record TV programs for later viewing.

According to CNET, Baer said Usenet.com’s position wasn’t the same as Betamax-maker Sony because Sony’s relationship with the customer ended with the purchase of the VCR, and the company was not responsible for whatever the customer did with the video recorder after the purchase.

However, Usenet.com’s relationship with its customers is ongoing. Customers pay monthly for the service, and because Usenet.com acts as a gateway to Usenet, the company does have some control over what its customers may download.

The judge also noted several instances of misconduct by Usenet.com, including destroying or failing to produce evidence. According to CNET, Usenet.com also prevented employees from giving depositions by sending them to Europe.

Although the court found Usenet.com guilty of facilitating infringements, it did not rule on how the company should be punished. Instead, any disciplinary action has been left up to a court magistrate, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Predictably, the RIAA was happy with the outcome. The organization posted a short message on its Web site essentially saying the verdict should be taken as a warning by anyone trying to build a business based on copyright infringing activity.

“This decision is another example of courts recognizing the value of copyrighted music and taking action against companies and individuals who are engaging in wide scale infringement. We hope that other bad actors who are engaging in similar activity will take note of this decisive opinion.”

More than Half Of Americans Polled Say Too Much MJ Coverage

Nearly two out of three Americans say the media has gone overboard on Michael Jackson coverage.

The Pew Research Center released its findings on July 1, saying 64 percent of those polled have pretty much overdosed on Michael Jackson stories. The same poll reports 29 percent are happy with coverage and 3 percent say the late King of Pop has not received enough attention.

Along the same lines, Associated Press ran an article stating the media had begun to cut back on Jackson coverage. The AP cites other new stories, such as Bernie Madoff’s sentencing and U.S. combat troops withdrawing from Iraqi cities, as reasons to discontinue wall-to-wall MJ coverage.

But AP’s report about reduced Jackson coverage was released two days ago, leading to speculation that the news organization might have been a tad optimistic when it published it.

However, the amount of media coverage devoted to Jackson isn’t just an American phenomenon, but a world-wide explosion of news stories, reports and rumors.

Even communist China acknowledged Jackson’s death. Official government mouthpiece The People’s Daily ran with the headline “Michael Jackson – A Generation’s King of Song, Passes Away.”

MTV Japan designated a week of mourning and in Indonesia a current affairs radio network that usually doesn’t air music, began playing Jackson’s catalog while taking calls from fans.

How big is the King of Pop’s death? That is, as a news story?

Although many have compared the King of Pop’s death with Elvis Presley’s 1977 demise, some are now saying the situation is more like Princess Diana’s death in a 1997 car crash.

Said Glenn Dyer, media correspondent for Australian news Web site Crikey: “I just wonder when the funeral happens, who is going to be the first idiot announcer to say they’re together in heaven.”

Everybody In The Pool!

New Yorkers and other East Coast residents saddened by the closing of Brooklyn’s McCarren Park Pool because it meant the end of its popular music-filled pool parties now have reason to celebrate; The parties have found a new home.

The 2009 season of the Jelly Pool Parties will kick off July 12 at the Williamsburg Waterfront (aka East River State Park), a strip of land along the East River between North Eighth and North Ninth Streets.

The move means the events will have a body of water close by for the first time, as well as a spectacular view of the Manhattan skyline.

The increased capacity of the site also means that organizers are free to bring in artists that will draw bigger crowds and they’ve wasted no time booking acts including Mission of Burma, Dirty Projectors, And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead, The Black Lips, Grupo Fantasma, Dan Deacon, Deerhunter, Simian Mobile Disco, Fiery Furnaces, Del Tha Funky Homosapien, Girl Talk and Grizzly Bear.

Aside from the killer lineup, music fans can play dodgeball, three-on-three basketball and engage in other healthy outdoor activities.

Oh yeah, did I mention all of this is absolutely stinkin’ free? So pack a cooler, gather some friends and head over to Brooklyn for a rockin’ good time. But don’t bring any of these things, or it’ll be a bummer.
