Our video year: ThePhoenix.tv's Best of 2007
By Carly Carioli

Queens of the Stone Age does "In the Fade" at First Act Guitar Studio, proving they are just as awesome acoustically as they are plugged in.

James Parker reads a poem about Britney Spears's wild night with Criss Angel, backed by a bunch of jellyfish.

Rilo Kiley live, proving, much to our amazement, that there were actual good songs lurking underneath the studio polish of Under the Blacklights

Talking Rock Band with Harmonix's Sean Baptiste
By Ryan Stewart

Last Friday, the Phoenix visited the Central Square offices of Harmonix, the video game development house behind the first two Guitar Hero products, and, with help from their new parent company, MTV, the upcoming, hotly-anticipated Rock Band, which, as you may have heard, takes Guitar Hero's authentic musical simulator feel and stretches that to accommodate a drummer and vocalist.

UPDATE: Nirvana's Nevermind to be a full-album download in Harmonix's Rock Band
By Ryan Stewart

We keep thinking we couldn't possibly be more excited about Harmonix's Rock Band (see previous entries here and here), but each time we learn more about the game, we find a way to geek out even more. Today's news: Nirvana's Nevermind joins Who's Next as downloadable content in the game. Okay, so maybe you aren't so hot on playing "Polly" or "Something in the Way," but you'd be nuts to deny the opportunity for potential awesomeness this presents, especially to those of us who were in middle school in the early 90s.
