-- It's hard to believe Bruce Springsteen-- stadium king and worldwide mega-concert icon-- has never done the granddaddy of all music festivals, Glastonbury. That will change this year when Springsteen and his E Street Band head over to England to headline this year's fest, which takes place June 26-28. According to the NME, other rumored headliners include Neil Young and Blur. The date comes in the middle of Bruce's 2009 world tour, which runs from April to August.-- In honor of upcoming summer reissues of their first two albums, 1980's Crazy Rhythms and 1986's The Good Earth, recently reunited post-punk janglers the Feelies plan a couple East Coast dates: March 13 at Philadelphia's Johnny Brenda's and March 14 at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C. The group will also take part in a R.E.M.-themed benefit show March 11 at Carnegie Hall. -- Electro-pop vets Saint Etienne-- featuring Pitchfork contributor Bob Stanley-- line-up three new UK gigs: May 13 at ABC in Glasgow, May 14 at Sheffield's Leadmill, and May 16 at Bloomsbury Ballroom in London. Their new Richard X-produced single, "Method of Modern Love", is out now. Thanks to reader Junu Kim for the tip.-- There are so many dudes playing dance records in clubs now, it can be tough to differentiate between the one guy with the cool haircut and beard and the other guy with the cool haircut and moustache. Enter Deadmau5, who plays records in clubs while wearing a disco ball mouse head with X's over its eyes. He stands out. And the gimmick-prone DJ-producer just put out a new iPhone application that allows users to remix Deadmau5 tracks on the fly, which is cool. If, say, Daft Punk put out a similar program it would probably be cooler, though.
