The Nikon at Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh suffered flood damage after superstorm Sandy but the amphitheater has been repaired and is ready for the summer concert season.

Phoenix 's presence as a Coachella headlining band was hotly debated. Many fans were holding out for a heavily rumored band like My Bloody Valentine or Rolling Stones, but French indie band Phoenix closed out the main stage Saturday night and exceeded all expectations.

Hop Farm promoter Vince Power has said that he wants to bring the festival back in the future and explained his reasons for cancelling the 2013 event.

This year's festival will take place August 24-25 at the L.A. State Historic Park.

Also on hand for the fest -- which runs Aug. 24-25 at L.A. State Historic Park -- are acts like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio, Solange, and MGMT.

It's been almost a year since the dust storms, hot hot heat, and a swarm of hip 20somethings invaded L.A. State HIstoric Park, but the FYF Fest is back with another lineup made for drooling.

After the stylistic incoherence of 2008's Beautiful Future, a lucrative but arguably lazy couple of years revisiting Screamadelica and yet another line-up tweak , it's high time Primal Scream regained their focus with some decent new material.

At Rachel Zeffira's first ever Toronto show, she played songs mostly from her debut solo album, The Deserters, including Silver City Days, her slowly-becoming-famous My Bloody Valentine cover, To Here Knows When, and the record's title track.

T In The Park has announced the line up for the Slam Tent dance area for this years' festival.

The event's future had been in doubt after it was announced earlier this year that the Paddock Wood tourist attraction was to close after suffering "significant losses" in the recession.

On their new single, Past/Future , youthful Eastside band Special Explosion float into candied atmospheres and whirling pop distortion without abandoning their sharp, crunchy guitar and catchy hooks.

Deap Vally , Jagwar Ma, AlunaGeorge and MS MR have been added to the line-up for this year's T In The Park.
