Last night Pavement reunited to play a show for the first time in 10 years at the Town Hall in Auckland, New Zealand. This was the first show of their world tour that takes them to Australia and Japan before heading to North America to play Coachella, Sasquatch! and Toronto Island.

And producer Brian Eno is back working on the new Coldplay album and says it could be released this Christmas. Eno produced 2008’s Viva La Vida and speaking about the new material Eno said, “It’s quite different from anything they’ve done before … so far, anyway. I don’t know how it will end up being, but it’s very fresh.” [BBC]
