Tom Jones opens for Morrissey and other live music tidbits from over the weekend

So, here's what happened in the world of live music this weekend.


New York City paid tribute to proto-house DJ Larry Levan


The good folks at the Red Bull Music Academy closed a block of King Street in New York's Hudson Square neighbourhood, in front of the former location of Larry Levan's Paradise Garage nightclub. They threw a giant dance party, featuring Levan's colleagues like François K and David DePino, as part of a larger initiative to name the same block Larry Levan Way. The whole thing was streamed over the internet.

Burlington's Sound of Music festival is going to be the most Canadian thing ever


The Sheepdogs, Sloan, Gord Downie, Classified, Teenage Head and Maestro Fresh Wes are among the dozens of acts who will play what's being billed as Canada's largest free music festival. The party will run from June 12-15, and is sponsored by Tim Horton's.


Morrissey and Tom Jones played a show in Los Angeles


The Pope of Mope kicked off a new tour last week, and while he won't be playing Canada, he is bringing Tom Jones along to open for him. No, you're thinking of the right Tom Jones.




Lily Allen is taking Sheezus on the road


Lily Allen will be touring North America for the first time in over five years this fall, in support of her new album, Sheezus. The tour includes three Canadian dates, in Montreal and Toronto on Sept. 27 and 28, and in Vancouver on October 5.
