Some Remix and Cover Love For Tegan & Sara

Late last week we were sent a link to Dutch DJ Tiesto's remix of Tegan and Sarah's "Back In Your Head." You can give it a listen on Tiesto's Myspace page but unfortunately we haven't been able to find it anywhere else. We were however able to find a couple great Tegan and Sara covers. One from The Broken West and the other from your favorite tour canceling friends The White Stripes. Check the links below for the goodness.

The Broken West - "Back In Your Head"

White Stripes - "Walking With A Ghost"

White Stripes Cancel ACL Performance!

That's right according to No Dessert For You Jack and Meg have canceled their show due to a nervous breakdown on Meg's part. There is not really any more information out right now but we can easily say that some festival goers will be disappointed. We wish Meg all the best and hope she recovers quickly and doesn't go all Owen Wilson. We're going to make a virtual get well son card that everyone can sign, look for the link soon.

Also added to the cancellations list are Amy Winehouse and Rodrigo y Gabriela who are both citing exhaustion as their reason for pulling out. Gander On!

MTV News: VMAs Announced

So...let me get this right, people still make music videos? And MTV shows these videos? Where? I have seen JT rocking the small screen lately...on HBO promos. Oh, the VMAs are in Vegas? I'm on board.

MTV will air a two-hour Video Music Awards program on September 9th, not live from The Palms in Las Vegas. Even before TiVo we would have no problem missing the initial broadcast, as a re-air would appear routinely. However, this year Music TeleVision will "remix" the show and broadcast these episodes on-air and online.

The nominations were announced today. Justin Timberlake and Beyonce each scored seven nods. Hopefully this exposure will get their careers moving. A new category was also announced: Most Earth-Shattering Collaboration. This humdinger of a category could turn into the "Survivor Series" of the music world. I'd love to hear who our readers think were left off the list. Also, post your picks in the comments sections...

Below are MJs picks for the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards:

Best New Artist
Amy Winehouse

Female Artist of the Year
Beyonce

Male Artist of the Year
Justin Timberlake

Best Group
The White Stripes

Quadruple Threat of the Year
Jay-Z (Sleeper pick: Bono)

Video of the Year
