<p>Have you ever heard of the “gray goo” hypothesis? No, we’re not talking about the contents of biocontainment bags pulled from the 50 Shades dungeon.

But what became even more obvious as the band took the stage to an earthquaking reception, led by the radiating gratitude of Dave Grohl who blew the frenzied gathering a simple but heartfelt […]</p>

<p>Boston Calling is this weekend, and suddenly comes news that the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are now No No Nos. They’ll be replaced by Dropkick Murphys, according to the festival.
