While Coldplay and Rihanna mull your offer, we're here to help with a multi-tiered proposal: For $2 Million: We get to play the upcoming halftime show. For $10 Million, one of us gets to quarterback a set of downs for the team of our choosing. For $40 Million, the Super Bowl will be played with English football rules, where you must use your feet, and an actual ball. We look forward to hearing your thoughts once you've had a chance to review. We welcome any of the Super Bowl committee to attend one of our upcoming American concerts. Our tour kicks off September 15th at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, CA. Warmly, You Me At Six (Josh, Dan, Max Chris, Matt) Should one or all of their offers be accepted, You Me At Six will be playing the Super Bowl XLIX halftime Show in support of new album Cavalier Youth, which hit No. 1 on both Billboard's Heatseekers and the UK charts. Rolling Stone called Cavalier Youth a "confident, modern rock album," and the Guardian praised it for having "the kind of fist-pumping choruses that made the Foo Fighters superstars." You Me At Six recently won "Best British Band" honors at the recent Kerrang! Awards and are currently taking over U.S. airwaves with new single, Room to Breathe which is top 10 at rock radio and rising. Over the course of the past few years, You Me At Six sold out UK's Wembley Arena, racked up 3 Gold-selling albums and amassed over 20 million combined YouTube/Vevo views and 1.2 million Facebook fans. They recently tore the house down at BBC Radio 1's "Big Weekend" festival in Glasgow, where they shared the bill with Katy Perry, Coldplay, Pharrell, Kings of Leon, Bastille and Lorde. http://www.youmeatsix.co.uk/

Upcoming Chris/Flaming Lips Collaboration?
Oyyy Vey http://flavorwire.com/473209/an-exclusive-sneak-peek-at-wayne-coynes-next-wacky-side-project [h=2]An Exclusive Sneak Peek at Wayne Coyne’s Next Wacky Side Project![/h] By Tom Hawking on <time class="entry-date" datetime="2014-08-20T09:45:07+00:00" pubdate="pubdate">Aug 20, 2014 9:45am</time><meta content="2014-08-20" itemprop="datePublished"> <!-- .entry-meta --> <!-- .entry-header --> <meta content="The devolution of Wayne Coyne from fearless freak into fearful fuckwit has been one of the saddest spectacles in the music industry over the last few" itemprop="articleBody"> The devolution of Wayne Coyne from fearless freak into fearful fuckwit has been one of the saddest spectacles in the music industry over the last few years. He was responsible for at least two of the truly great albums of the 1990s, and now he’s doing drugs with Kesha and filming Miley Cyrus in bed. This week sees the release of the first single from the upcoming record With a Little Help from My Fwends, in which Wayne and his <del>sycophants</del> wacky pals cover Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band in its entirety! How wild and crazy! This is only the beginning, though: what the world doesn’t know is that Wayne and five fwends are also moving into a suspiciously cheap Manhattan apartment, where they will have all sorts of crazy adventures… and it’ll all be caught on camera! Yes, behold the glory of the first season of Fwends, starring Kesha as Phoebe, Chris Martin as Ross, Amanda “Fucking” Palmer as Monica, Miley Cyrus as Joey, the gummy skull as Chandler, and Wayne himself as Rachel’s haircut. Episode 1: The One With the Drugs Chris is sad because he split up with his wife, so Wayne and Miley dose him with LSD to cheer him up, but in a psychedelic frenzy, Chris tries to eat the gummy skull! Hilarity ensues! Eventually Kesha slips Chris a klonopin, and he passes out in the local café, where Wayne’s working as a server. But then Wayne doses Chris again! Wayne’s a dick! Episode 2: The One With the Kickstarter Amanda’s rich Boston family has stopped supporting her, so she can’t afford the rent. Her lame parents tell her to get a job, but instead she starts a crowdsourcing campaign to ask for money, and her wacky fans give her a million dollars! So funny! She has a discussion with Wayne about how she’s going to spend it, and she decides to donate $100 to charity and spend the rest on drugs! Everyone gets wasted and Kesha tries to eat the gummy skull! Episode 3: The One With the Twerking Miley starts a petition to rename the local café “Central Twerk.” Wayne sees that people on the Internet have been calling her racially insensitive, so he tells them that they’re all wrong and he’s right because he’s Wayne Coyne! Kesha and Miley argue about who appropriates black culture better, and decide the dispute can only be settled with a twerk-off — but Wayne thinks they’re saying “jerk-off” and wonders why they’re talking about him! Miley wins! In the course of her celebrations, she gets so wasted that she tries to eat the gummy skull! Episode 4: The One With the Nudity Wayne gets naked! Amanda gets naked! Kesha gets naked! Everyone gets naked! Even the gummy skull! Such art! So transgressive! Wow! Everyone gets wasted and Wayne tries to eat the gummy skull! Episode 5: The One With the Cultural Appropriation Wayne goes to play at Coachella and comes home with a cool Native American headdress. He wears it everywhere, but then some dumb people on the Internet tell him that he shouldn’t because it upsets Native Americans! Wayne laughs at them and calls them stupid and then buys headdresses for everyone! The people on the Internet get even more upset! Wayne laughs at them some more! The gummy skull comes home wasted and tries to eat itself! Episode 6: The One With the Bathtub Amanda and Wayne use a bathtub to film an artistic music video, in which they both get naked! Chris is appalled by this, but Wayne and Amanda tell him he’s just being a big lame-o! Miley offers to teach Chris to twerk so that he can be less lame! Chris decides to prove he’s not lame by getting naked in the bathtub! Kesha pours fake blood all over him! Everyone does coke off Amanda’s ass! Chris isn’t lame anymore! Episode 7: The One With Billy Ray Miley’s dad Billy Ray comes to visit and wonders why his daughter is hanging out with a creepy man in his 50s. He decides he’s going to take Miley home, but Miley doesn’t want to go, because no one can tell her what to do! Billy Ray gets mad, but Amanda tells him that his possessiveness is born out of male entitlement and a product of the patriarchy! Billy Ray listens! Wayne serves up Wayne’s Special Magic Humboldt Cookies, and silly old Billy Ray doesn’t realize they have weed in them! Billy Ray tells interminable stories about Willie Nelson, and gets so wasted that he tries to eat the gummy skull! Episode 8: The One With Instagram Wayne gets kicked off Instagram for posting naked pictures, so he decides to show the photo sharing app how lame it is by starting his own website! He posts lots of pics of naked ladies on AdultFwendFinder.com, but stupid people on the Internet don’t realize that it’s art, and keep calling it cheap second-rate porn produced by a man who’s old enough to know better! Wayne laughs because everyone on the Internet is stupid, and proves that he’s not lame by posting photos of himself doing drugs with Kesha! AdultFwendFinder.com gets shut down because some of the girls on the site look suspiciously underage! Episode 9: The One With the Midlife Crisis Wayne wonders whether hanging out with his fwends is just symptomatic of a big old midlife crisis! Everyone else remains conspicuously silent! Episode 10: The One With the Cannibalism Wayne drinks mushroom tea and does coke off Amanda’s ass and drinks a case of beer and gets so wasted that he actually does eat the gummy skull! The show is canceled! OMG!

[Not confirmed] Coldplay Live @ iTunes Festival, London
Stumbled upon this today: http://news.softpedia.com/news/21-more-Artists-Added-to-the-London-iTunes-Festival-list-455568.shtml [TABLE] [TR] [TD=class: pagehead3][TABLE] [TR] [TD=class: contentheadings][h=1]21 more Artists Added to the London iTunes Festival list[/h][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=class: contentpadding][TABLE] [TR] [TD=class: contentheadings sharebox, colspan: 2]SHARE: sharesharetweetAdjust text size: [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=colspan: 2][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=class: contentheadings, colspan: 2, align: left] ⌖ - iTunes Festival logo The eight annual iTunes Festival has a huge lineup. A few weeks ago, Apple announced via a press release that artists like Maroon 5, Pharrell Williams, Beck and David Guetta will be coming on the stage in London. This 30-day celebration is one of the biggest music events in Europe and Apple is more interested in promoting all the big names via iTunes or the AppStore. Best thing about it is that the concerts are free. Spectators will be selected by a number of local media outlets in the United Kingdom. For the rest of the fans, the concerts will be broadcasted live to an iPhone, iPad or Apple TV near you. When the first lineup was announced, Eddie Cue, Apple's senior vice president of Internet Software and Services expressed some positive thoughts about the idea of live performances. In his opinion, Apple loves bringing them to their customers in the legendary London Roundhouse and the fact that millions of people are watching the events for free is the way they express iTunes heart and soul. The London iTunes Festival was launched in 2007 and since then over 430 artists have been invited to come up on the stage. Hundreds of thousands of fans have been present for these shows and millions more were able to catch them online or buy them later in iTunes. The line-up for this year is a great way to complement artists from the previous shows. So far we have seen Adele, Coldplay, Elton John, Foo Fighters, Justin Timberlake, Kings of Leon, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Muse, Sir Paul McCartney and many, many more.

NFL to Coldplay: Pay to Play the Super Bowl
Ughhhh This just adds to the NFL's greediness. So my father in law had season Tickets to the NY Giants for 4O years, a fan from the beginning. He could not wait for the home games every Fall and Winter Sunday. It was a great bonding time for him and his family and friends. A few years ago, someone had the bright idea to charge a licensing fee to these season pass tickets. I think the license was you had to buy the seat for $20,000 each and then you had to buy the season pass. The actual ticket to the game was not included. If you did not buy the license, you gave up your seat to be sold to someone else. He had 7 seats. So they wanted $140,000 American Dollars and then he had to buy the ticket for each game. It broke his heart to give up those seats.

RIP Robin Williams
Only the Westboro Baptist Church could try to turn the beautiful Robin Williams into something ugly. I despise them even more now http://movies.msn.com/movies/article.aspx?news=884556 Westboro Baptist Church planning to protest Robin Williams' funeral Aug. 15, 2014, 6:41 PM EST WENN Members of the controversial Westboro Baptist Church are planning an ill-advised protest at tragic actor Robin Williams' funeral over his portrayal of a gay man in "The Birdcage." The "Good Will Hunting" star passed away on Monday and while details of his funeral have not been made public, members of the church have already announced plans to picket the memorial. A message posted on the group's official Twitter page reads: "Westboro Baptist Church Hopes To Preach In Lawful Proximity To Robin Williams' Funeral - To Warn The Living: Repent Or Likewise Perish." However, organizers at Planting Peace have launched a fundraiser to counter the church's plans. A message from co-founder Aaron Jackson reads: "Robin Williams played many different roles in so many people's lives, and giving back to others was at the top of that list. His appeal crossed generational boundaries. I was personally impacted when I heard of his passing. This is a small gesture to honor his legacy and the difference he made to so many. "When the WBC announced they were protesting Robin's funeral, we felt like launching a fundraiser for a charity Robin loved would be the perfect way to honor him and counteract the message of hate and intolerance that the WBC continues to convey." The proceeds from the fundraiser will benefit St. Jude Children's Hospital, which Williams supported during
