The Authors Farewell Show with Politics and Milk Thistle | February 2nd at The Mohawk

One of my favorite Austin bands The Authors is saying goodbye next week at The Mohawk. We were proud to sponsor their album release a few years back and now is your last chance to see a great group before they move on to new projects. Joining them on the bill will be Politics and Milk Thistle. The show also serves as the after show for the Anthony Green of Circa Survive show outside. Doors for the inside show open at 10 and the cost is only $5.

As we informed you last month, Radiohead would be performing an ACL taping in 2012. Now we have the exact date. It'll be on Tuesday, March 6th, a day before the band plays a SOLD OUT show at the Frank Erwin Center.

If you'd like to have a chance to be one of the lucky ones to win tickets, be sure to become one of their Facebook friends, Twitter buddies, and follow the official ACL blog. Also be sure to sign up for the ACL newsletter because they'll be offering a pair of tickets that way as well. If you do win, please keep us in mind. We'd love to go! (via)

LCD Soundsystem Release Trailer For SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS

Premiering at this year's Sundance Film Festival in Park City, UT is a film by the title of SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS. The "part concert film, part documentary, part intimate narrative" marks the end of LCD Soundsystem as a band, with James Murphy and company packing it in with a final performance at famed Madison Square Garden.

Watch a trailer down below and find more information, including a director's Q&A with The Creators Project (which is an amazingly cool website by the way). Hopefully, we'll get to check this out soon here in Austin. Looking at you SXSW...
