While down with the flu over the past weekend, I stumbled upon VBS.tv which provides rather good content in terms of current events and music. They have several channels with documentaries and interviews.

Here's some stuff I picked up while poking around.

Music World has documentaries about music in different places. Follow heavy metal band the Birthday Boyz as they attempt guerilla rock and roll, see how they tour China without any work visas.

Soft Focus
Weird War's Ian Svenonius interviews various musicians, like Kevin Shields, Will Oldman and Chan Marshall. Ian is well-informed, has pretty interesting opinions and a natural camaraderie with the guests.


Practice Space
Watch bands like The Walkmen, Grizzly Bear and Regina Spektor as they rehearse and jam out in the studios.

Bangs are short films or documentaries about music. Film Director Lance Bangs interviews bands who had their equipment stolen on tour, apparently it's quite common.
He also covers Arcade Fire performing 'Wake Up'


So anyone has interesting sites to share?
