This won't be the first single from the album, but it is still a preview of some of the new stuff they've been working on - go their website to register and download or just listen to it here for free :)

Maximo Park - Wraithlike

This is a song from their first album, A Certain Trigger.

Maximo Park - Apply Some Pressure

Amy Winehouse

Update on the crazy Brit - she has no longer been granted visa access to the states in light of her recent arrest for assault.

Therefore, Winehouse will no longer be playing alongside the headliners at this year's Coachella Festival. :(

Conan/Fallon

I know this is a little past due, but in case you missed out on Conan's last night...he was serenaded by The White Stripes' We Are Going To Be Friends. The duo started out kinda stiff and shaky, but by the end of the show had it together to really give Conan a performance that he will always remember...he has long admired Jack and Meg and through the years they have forged a weirdly fitting friendship

White Stripes on Conan (watch)
The White Stripes - We Are Going to be Friends (listen)

As you know, Conan is taking over Leno's time slot, who is getting pushed up to 10pm, while Jimmy Fallon is taking over Conan's gig...Fallon's got some big shoes to fill...can Conan keep the Late Night audience?...how will Leno do at the pseudo primetime spot....

Fallon's first week included performances by Ludacris, Rose Bryne, and Jon Bon Jovi...Fallon struggled a little the first week getting settled in, but as all good shows need time this week has a promising outlook for the beau. The rest of this week's guests are Russell Brand, Tracy Morgan, Emily Blunt, and Jarod Miller.

Conan will be back June 1st.
