A periodic A/V update

Joe Pernice has posted the third installment of his "indie Cribs" series, this time focusing on his garage. Not quite the pimped-out rides you might expect, but amusing nonetheless.

Son Volt is the latest entry in NPR's Live Concert Series, with a performance scheduled for 9 p.m. CDT on Friday. The band's muscular new disc ought to translate well to the stage, and reviews from this tour seem to bear that out. The series, which has been offering up some nice shows, featured My Morning Jacket and Kathleen Edwards in its last, still-streamable installment.

KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic has been on a winning streak of its own of late. Performances from Teenage Fanclub, Dungen and Death Cab For Cutie are available, while upcoming sets from Nada Surf, Supergrass and the Magic Numbers are on the schedule. Today, Gang of Four pay a visit, playing songs from their latest, Return the Gift. Now that's truth in advertising: We influenced a lot of young bands + people want to hear our old records + we have a lousy royalty rate = we have a better royalty rate now so we re-recorded the songs so you can return the gift.
