Details of the EP Modest Mouse have reportedly been working on with help from the Dirty Dozen Brass Band? Nope. How about tour dates featuring the latter opening for the former? Coming right up-- right around the time Modest Mouse finish their tour with R.E.M. and the National in mid-June.

Also lacking further details: that reworking of Lee Hazlewood's Trouble Is a Lonesome Town featuring Isaac Brock, Frank Black, and Larry Norman, due to be released later this year.

Brock also appears in the Flaming Lips' movie Christmas on Mars, which finally, FINALLY, debuts at the Sasquatch Festival on May 25. Check out an outtake from the film featuring Brock and actor Adam Goldberg here:
