Blondfire (formerly known as Astaire)
If you recall I was talking about the band Astaire (that opened for Ivy) last month. They had to stop using the name Astaire and changed it to Blondfire. (Why? The Estate of Fred Astaire complained). The important thing is that they just released a new $3.96 four song EP (only at the iTunes store) it's got three tracks not on their first EP (only $4.49). I'm liking it so far. It says it's live but you'd never know it. The track titled “L-L-Love” is on both EPs and the Monster In Law soundtrack (although this version is live).
I found this info in the Free Press: “Because of legal threats from the Fred Astaire estate, the Driscolls are changing their name.” Stupid people and their trademarks... (I'm serious, like people would confuse them with Fred Astaire.)
FYI - It looks like they new web site will be http://www.blondfire.com/
