Chili Bowl at Protrero del Sol!.

Panda Bear uploaded their new video for “Comfy In Nautica.” It’s a lovely laid back skate video (total opposite of the adrenaline rush of most amped up sk8 vids) and the song is sublimely nice, like sitting on the beach watching the surfers.

Panda Bear – “Comfy In Nautica”:

The video was directed by Patrick O’Dell and Sam Salganik, but I don’t know who the skater is. Any ideas?

Happy Skateboarding Day! To celebrate this fine occasion, and being skate punks themselves, The Beasties Boys have 1 trick and 2 treats up their sleeve!

Buy The Mix-Up, Go To Beastie Boys Shows

Treat #1 : They still have tickets to some of the sold out shows on their US tour as part of the preferred seating they will be selling after July 3rd. Shows that include instrumental gala events of their psychedelic jazz punk stylings, as well as old skool hip hoppery.
Trick #1 : There’s a catch – in order to receive the promo code for the preferred seating sales, you need to order their new album The Mix Up from iTunes on Tuesday. I’d be buying the album anyway, but not from iTunes, that’s too bad.
According to the news on the BBoys site:

Purchase The Mix-Up from iTunes, and receive a code that gives you access to preferred seating for the upcoming tour dates, INCLUDING THE SHOWS THAT HAVE ALREADY SOLD OUT!!! Special blocks of tickets have been set aside specifically for this promotion.

You must act quickly in order to qualify for this promotion. Offer expires July 3rd.

(LINK WILL BE ON http://www.beastieboys.com/news/ ON TUESDAY)

Please note: Tickets for this promotion are limited. Purchasing the album through iTunes does not guarantee tickets.
