Since it is Thor's day, we've got some lightning-hot music-related links for you to peruse while ignoring your work:
· We've figured out how to shut Johnny Borrell up: just block out the sun.
· Fancy helping break the world record for snogging? There's just one catch - you may have to listen to a little Madness.
· The new Justin Timberlake video is meh. Is his reign of terror nearing an end?
· Elvis Costello and Frank Zappa: Just two of the musical artists banned from Saturday Night Live. (Plus, great SNL musical moments.)
· Academics try to understand Marilyn Manson.
· Another cattier take on the Royal Festival Hall reno: "The £115 million refit will buy it two decades, three at most, as a premier concert hall. That, take it or leave it, is the bottom line."
