Remember back in the day when it used to take something depressing like famine to bring all-star musicians together for a single? This summer, Converse has brought together some major musicians to help celebrate the 100th birthday of the Chuck Taylor! The first track to pop out of the Converse Music Collaboration campaign was the recently released “My Drive Thru” featuring Pharrell Williams, Santogold, and Julian Casablancas. Now the uptempo song has been given a Xeroxed paper cut-out motif in a video treatment courtesy of Pharrell. More rumored music collabos from other artists (such as rumored Bradford Cox of Deerhunter, YACHT, Kid Sister, MGMT, Does it Offend You, Yeah?, and Fiery Furnaces) are expected to drop sometime in the near future as part of Converse’s ongoing campaign.

This Saturday Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, the Flaming Lips, Incubus and Tenacious D will pay tribute to The Who at VH1’s annual Rock Honors event in Hell-Ay. Roger Daltrey recently revealed puppy-pushers The Flaming Lips are set to perform a Tommy medley (apropos considering Des McAnuff, the Tony Award-winning director of Tommy, is working with Wayne Coyne to turn Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots into a Broadway musical). Ahead of Saturday’s performance, you can check out the below video of The Lips getting their Who on!

On the heels of premiering their new song, Bloc Party has also released a music video for “Mercury.” The video finally answers the age-old question, “What would happen if Dr. Zaius made a Manchurian candidate for the Planet of the Apes?” The answer - a bull-crab hybrid, obvs.
