My Bloody Valentine To Play Stateside, Curate Best North American Festival Of 2008

Sly Stone Speaks, Shows Off His Chopper

The forthcoming issue of Vanity Fair has an article that, frankly, we never thought we'd see: a chat between the long-reclusive Sly Stone and VF contributing editor David Kamp, who admits to pursuing the musician for an interview, off and on, for about 12 years. The chat eventually takes place at the Bay Area bike shop Chopper Guys Biker Products Inc., which we're guessing will see an uptick in business from curious fans beginning, oh, around now or so—and yes, that is his bike pictured at right: More »
