- Lil Wayne eludes jail–for now–with toothache. Or something like that. Hilarious.
- Jay-Z, the Dead Weather and Phoenix are among the Coachella acts performing at Bonnaroo, which also has Dave Matthews Band (yawn), Weezer, Stevie Wonder, Kings of Leon, Flaming Lips, Regina Spektor, Kid Kudi, Miranda Lambert, Avett Brothers, Big Sam's Funky Nation and many more. Yeah, the highly eclectic Bonnaroo has Coachella beat. Jealous!
- Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival to feature Jeff Beck, B.B. King, John Mayer, fest debut of Allman Brothers Band and greatest guitarist alive Sonny Landreth.
- Bright Eyes reissue to include four new songs.
