Remix 'Nude' for Radiohead
The Starbucks nearest you may have been selling copies of In Rainbows since early January, but that doesn't mean that Radiohead is done promoting their new album just yet. Way across the pond in England, Radiohead has just released the woozy "Nude" as their second single. To commemorate the event, the band is hosting a remix contest that's open to everybody -- including you! All you need to do is (1) buy the raw tracks from iTunes, (2) do a bit of mixing and matching on your own and (3) upload the results to radioheadremix.com. The best remix will be determined by an online vote.

See Mahogany perform this Sunday
Those of you out there who inadvertently found yourselves hooked on Randy Jackson's recently concluded reality show America's Best Dance Crew (Kaba Modern was robbed!) are in luck. Rather than wait for season 2, viewers need look no further than U.Va.'s Mahogany Dance Troupe's spring show, Replay: Takin' It Back. The show will take place Sunday, April 4 at MLK Performing Arts Center, and will feature guest performances from Step It Up, Remix and Oluponya. Buses will run from the Chemistry Building to MLK every 20 minutes from 4:45 to 5:45, and tickets are $5 in advance and $7 at the door.
