Hearing Things

• Greg Kot shares some advice for Lolla-goers.
• Thrillist talked to Girl Talk. So did Chicagoist. Maybe we should call ourselves Transmissionist so we can talk to him.

• Double O of Kidz In the Hall got badly beat up by bouncers in a Tempe, AZ nightclub.
The Brauerhouse, a popular Hillside punk venue, burned down this week.
