*[blogs.dallasobserver.com] Well, that was fast: Just two days after the Foo Fighters rolled through the region to perform a secret show in a fan's garage as part of their Blackberry-backed promotional tour, the band has rolled out their video recap of the event. It's a fun watch, too, if a little heavy on the typical Dallas and rural cliches, as heard most eye-rolling-inducingly at the clip's end when someone wondered aloud, "How does a cow get up after you tip it?"
*Portugal. The Man have posted another teaser from their upcoming album, this one for the song "You Carried Us (Share With Me The Sun)"...

*[pitchfork.com] A few things about this video of No Age bashing and shouting through Everything in Between standout "Depletion" on Greek television station ANT1: First off, the duo's mutual mustaches are kind of ridiculous in a great way. Second, the TV studio they're playing in is undoubtedly one of the most rock club-looking studio settings out there, and it makes other variety show setups look like Pat Boone's fucking living room by comparison. Oh yeah, also, "Depletion" is still an awesome song. Check out the performance below (via Prefix)...
*[pitchfork.com] As Rolling Stone reports, punk rock lifer Mike Watt ended his show at Seattle's Triple Rock last night in a very big way: Eddie Vedder, Dave Grohl, and Germs/Nirvana/Foo Fighters guitarist Pat Smear emerged on stage to re-create their 1995 tour together. The impromptu band started out playing "Big Train", a song from Watt's ripe-for-rediscovery 1995 all-star album Ball-Hog or Tugboat?, before breaking into a 10-minute jam. Sadly, they never got around to "Against the 70s". A fan in the crowd filmed the whole thing, and his "Oh, no shit!" when he realizes what's happening is great. Check out the video below. Dave Grohl sure knows how to wallop some motherfucking drums...
