Now let’s take a look at some of the shit that went down this week…

• Giving new meaning to the High Seas: Jamcruise 6 lineup‘s out

• Wanna see the most kickass JazzFest photos out there?
• moe.ments of brilliance. moe.ments of boredom. — moe.hits the Highline
• There’s gonna be fun down in Austin…Austin, Masschusetts
• Clothes and tilted hats optional at Hedonism when the Biscuits and Umphrey’s collaborate to prop up the Jamaican drug economy
• “We made brownies and I think we’re dead, I really do.”
• Are we gonna see Dylan sit in with Levon at SummerStage?
• And don’t forget to cup the balls: Grouse the Aisles, Pull the ‘Tubes (again and again), Storm the Mondays and Mix the Fridays
