"But it was never a live album where you're just listening to the music." Out Friday, "The Soft Bulletin Recorded Live at Red Rocks with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra" not only marks the Grammy-winning band's first live album but also commemorates the 20th anniversary of the Lips' seminal 1999 breakthrough release.

Even better, he has an all-star cast eager to feast on the scenery of his cinematic game of "Clue.

Yesterdaze: Tough on grease, strong on gangs
Simon Bridges has ditched the greased-up look for a Trump-type bouffant, and that's not the only Trumpian tack he's taking. James Elliott on the news of the week. My recommended read of the week was a piece by broadcaster-turned-lawyer Linda Clark, published here at Newsroom. It was a plea for the continued civility, relatively speaking, in New Zealand’s public discourse. It comes at a time when politics around the world has become infected with division, anger and tribalism, the symptoms of a “polarising virus” that began with patient zero, Donald Trump. As New Zealand starts to look ahead to a general election in 2020, Linda makes a reasonable request as to how we should respond to the political positioning and posturing that lies ahead: “If it looks even a bit like Trump, or if it sounds even a bit like something Trump would say, press delete.” Enter Simon Bridges and National’s new law and order policy – tough on the worst youth offenders, tough on murderers and especially tough on gangs.

This election gives us the impossible choice, writes Robert Peston
How do you weigh a once-in-a-generation transfer of power from private sector to public sector and from capital to labour, against an irreversible rupture with the European Union? That is the choice being offered to voters, by Labour and the Tories respectively. Talk about chalk and cheese, or bicycles versus fish. How on earth do you decide, if you haven't made up your mind already, which you like best? You could argue that the desire among some voters to squeeze the private sector's pips till they squeak and those that want to take a chainsaw to the UK's ties with the EU - with only a relatively small group apparently wanting both - stem from similar social and economic causes. Namely that the way we've run this place has eroded the living standards, security and a sense of being heard for millions of people, especially those outside the big metropolises, as well as among the young.

Brahmachari Movie Review: Ninasam Sathish, Aditi Prabhudeva starrer is not short of entertainment quotient
Brahmachari Movie Review: In a film where the protagonist is the butt of most jokes, credit should go to Sathish for accepting to do it. He does his job of a soft-natured, mild-mannered good boy role quite well. Aditi Prabhudeva has the knack of getting into the skin of any character. The detailing given to the supporting characters is what makes them believable and gives the story a touch of reality. They are probably inspired from real characters and their mannerisms.

Why We Strike Again
For more than a year, children and young people from around the world have been striking for the climate. We launched a movement that defied all expectations, with millions of people lending their voices – and their bodies – to the cause. We did this not because it was our dream, but because we didn’t see anyone else taking action to secure our future. And despite the vocal support we have received from many adults – including some of the world’s most powerful leaders – we still don’t. Striking is not a choice we relish; we do it because we see no other options. We have watched a string of United Nations climate conferences unfold. Countless negotiations have produced much-hyped but ultimately empty commitments from the world’s governments – the same governments that allow fossil-fuel companies to drill for ever-more oil and gas, and burn away our futures for their profit.
