Simpson’s creator Matt Groening is set to curate the first weekend of All Tomorrow’s Parties, May 7-9 2010 at the venerable Butlins resort in Minehill, England. Unlike Pavement, who curate the next weekend, this isn’t Groening’s first rodeo, as he curated the second Stateside ATP in 2003, selecting acts like Cat Power, !!! and Sonic Youth to round out his lineup. ATP, so incestuous. No stranger to musical guests or whats expected at ATP, let’s just hope that Groening pulls out all the stops for the UK installment, including, and believe me our fingers are crossed, Lisa Simpson and Bleeding Gums Murphy performing Miles Davis’ Bitches Brew as part of ATP’s longstanding Don’t Look Back series.
It’s been heavily rumored for months, even before the announcement of the reunion, and it is in fact happening: Pavement will curate All Tomorrow’s Parties in Minehill, England in May 14-16 2010. Playing ATP means that the band’s first scheduled shows at Central Park will– surprise, surprise– not be their first shows! Who could’ve seen this coming?! Now the question should be, what’s the likelihood will be that Pavement will play Coachella? Or rather, when will Coachella announce that Pavement is headlining? Maybe they’ll “ruin” Lollapalooza again! All in all, looks like the Spiral Stairs may be too busy booking plane tickets on Orbitz to tour Sri-Lanka in support of his forthcoming The Real Feel. Tickets go on sale this Friday.

It’s been 29 years since we first saw those yellow jumpsuits and red hats. It’s been 29 years since we were politely reminded to whip it. Whip it good. And it’s been 19 years since we’ve had our hands on a new LP from new wave icons Devo, but all that is going to change this fall with the release of their first album since 1990’s Smooth Noodle Maps.
