theymightbegiants.com
You know we're big fans of They Might Be Giants (or short TMBG). The band recently announced their latest compilation album called Idlewild. Described as "not a best of" or a "rarities" album, the 17-track compilation will hit stores on May 27th via Idlewild Recordings.
Also, you still have time to enter TMBG's make a music video for "Am I Awake". Contest ends this Saturday, April 12. Download the song on Soundcloud so you can use it in your video. Good luck. They Might Be Giants described the contest:

They Might Be Giants is making a new compilation album called Idlewild and it includes the magnificent, but often overlooked track “Am I Awake?” To help raise awareness of this great song, there is a video contest open to all video people-–film people and general visually-minded people–-who are open to the challenge! We suspect this includes YOU! There will be 3 winners and a $1000 cash prize for each winner.
Also, if you're in Washington, DC, don't miss TMGB at these two shows. They promised both shows will be different, so get there early for a good seat:
04/26: Washington, DC @ USA Science & Engineering Festival, 1pm
04/26: Washington, DC @ USA Science & Engineering Festival, 4pm
