Squeeze, the Police, O.A.R, Duran Duran - WIN TIX
Squeeze is touring, and tickets are now on sale for a 2nd NYC date at Nokia Theatre. (thx Thighs)
The Police kicked off their reunion tour in Canada, and they've added another NYC show.
I know nothing about this band, but file this in the "band that plays MSG may be playing a small venue" category. Somebody told me that "Exposed Youth" at Knitting Factory on June 4th is O.A.R. under a fake name. Google reveals that "Exposed Youth" was O.A.R.'s old name or something.
As you know, Duran Duran is playing a fan club show at Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC on June 17th. I have two pairs of tickets to give away. Do you want to win them? You don't even need to be in the fan club. E-mail BVCONTESTS@HOTMAIL.COM (subject: Duran), and include a link to a YouTube video from the 80's that you think is awesome. Two winners will be picked and notified via e-mail. Contest ends June 7, 2007 @ noon EST.
And since this post started with an old Rolling Stone cover, here's a picture of that new Amy Winehouse one:

yeah, it's definitely OAR. my little sis is a huge fan so i was excited when i saw this post. anyway, i looked into it, and like BV said, that is their old name. they have a website, exposedyouth.com, that is registered to OAR's record company. and, anyway, after a bit of poking around it is clear that it's definitely them.

looks like total vapid guidette jersey trash in that foto. i like her stuff but man, i just get the sense she's going to burn out in a scary, tabloid-fueled blaze at some point soon.
