- The Grammys happened. Arcade Fire, Black Keys, the artists formerly known as the White Stripes all won stuff. Avetts performered with Dylan. And there was much rejoicing.
- FANTASTIC news out of the ANTI- Records camp. Tom Waits is working on his next album! Woo! Wonder where it will fall on the Waits-o-meter?
