Metallica has now decided to get involved and they have recorded a public service video to try to help catch the guy who did it. Metallica cares and it doesn’t seem to be about publicity, as Morgan’s mother said that the band has been supportive from the outset
144 tracks of live acoustic Ryan spread across 15 vinyl discs…with a download card featuring all 144 tracks PLUS an additional 74 digital-only bonus tracks (yup, that’s a total of 218 tracks) all in a heavyweight cloth box
Green Day has been trying hard to sell a punk rock image despite of having repeatedly selling out,… these guys even performed with U2 on Monday Night Football in 2006 and appeared with Lindsay Lohan on Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards the same year!
he balcony was quite high, but it didn’t stop the Gaslight Anthem’s singer to go up there and fall flat on the crowd who received him quite well. Everybody seemed super happy and he went on stage as if he hadn’t done anything out of the ordinary.
Tuesday night was not a good night to drive eastbound in LA, there was a traffic jam on Sunset boulevard, and it took me way too much time to go to Origami Vinyl! It is on the Dodger Stadium route and there probably was some baseball event, but this did not prevent the store to fill up for Superchunk’s Mac McCaughan’s set.
Did I say quiet? Man, I could have heard a fly moving a single wing, and when some security guard’s walkie-talkie made a sound in the middle of a song, it was received by one hundred shhhhhuts from the audience.
neither Brown nor Drake was present when the police arrived on the site, but the rumor is saying that the fight was about Brown’s ex girlfriend Rihanna, who has recently been dating Drake.

So far, the acts have only been announced for the last day of the festival, and they will also include Steve Aoki, Far-East Movement, Black Label Society, De La Soul, Dead Sara and the Mowgli’s
‘Certainly, indie rock is at its most banal right now. Nothing against Arcade Fire because they are an unbelievable band, but how many terrible bands that thrive on that sound are we going to have to put up with?”
DJs are kind of a joke for me, they get all the glory and all the cheerleaders for spinning records, and if some can be creative, most of them are so overrated it’s not even funny!
the company employs 35 students to browse forums, blogs and file hosting sites to find people pirating music. They are also supposed to track down students who use P2P networks and BitTorrents, and what caught ‘thieves’ will have to pay thousands of dollars per offense to record labels.
the Misfits mad man ‘ran to the side of the stage pointing and screaming before approaching security and then proceeded to run all the way past the side stage, almost into the crowd to walk among us’
Should Morello thank him for the compliment? Ventura may share some ideas with the left, but he is also running this Conspiracy Theory wacky show, which pretends for example that 911 was a cover up by the government,… what kind of political credibility does he exactly have?
Recently, there was a void and a new haircut, which made One Direction’s American success possible. It’s the same story for anything else, natural selection is pretty harsh for bands, and the competition is ferocious. They have to come at the right time, with the right song and the right outfit to find their US niche
From ’89 on I’ve had people tell me who I am. And they pick my personality as if it’s a one or two-dimensional thing, and I’m more like a tetrahedron. I can’t think of any people outside of Weird Al Yankovic who have both embraced and pissed on Rock more than I have.
The 53 year-old singer, while performing in Istanbul, began a sort of strip-tease during the song ‘Human Nature’ and pulled down her bra, showing her right whole nipple. And it was not a wardrobe malfunction if you see what I mean.
Some stupid people have been attacking her saying she is spoiled for offering such a large amount of money for a cat or that she is doing it for attention, to what she cleverly replied; ‘What most ppl don’t understand is that i would offer up my home 2 see my cat returned safely& if i wanted attention I would make a sex tape’
Their bumpy music had drawn a large crowd at Origami Vinyl, and the trio was quite loud as their songs had often a moment when their unusual and shaky collages were wakened up by Della Peruti’s shrill guitar,… it was a strange marriage but it worked as some people had started dancing in the store, moving along Della Peruti’s distant vocals with an almost incantational nature
It is always weird and awesome to be among such a crowd of artists and art-music lovers, as I feel like a foreigner in another land, asking myself what do I know about post moral retardist? And in what subculture have I landed? But at the same time, I always feel at home surrounded by so much inventive quirkiness and mysterious unconventionality.
No Hope’ is the first song from their upcoming and second album ‘The Vaccines Come of Age’ set to be released on September 3. According to NME, the album will sound ‘more intimate and close than the first record’, and was produced by Ethan Johns who also worked with Kings Of Leon… ouch! not our friends here!
‘He was a huge part of our history which sometimes gets forgotten… mostly his legacy would be his songwriting abilities that he brought to Fleetwood Mac, which will survive all of us… If you look into our musical history, you’ll see a huge period that was completely ensconced in Bob’s work’
Kimberley Griggs is suing MJ’s estate for $1 billion, no less – but I guess she can, now that he is selling albums as if we were back in the good old ‘Thriller’ times. Kimberley is claiming she had an intimate relationship with Jackson in 1979 and so has inspired albums like ‘Thriller’, ‘Bad’ and ‘Dangerous’!
How music works? What a vast and ambitious subject! and the duo Byrne-Butler will talk about the book ‘in the context of their own personal and professional experiences as musicians and music lovers’.
In October 2006, Amato had an accident, he hit his head in a swimming pool and got a serious head injury that made him lose 35% of his hearing and part of his memory. But he suddenly discovered he could play piano beautifully and inexplicably
If it is true – and Buzzbands.la, which is always in the known for these kinds of things, still put a question mark at the end of the title – it’s gonna be big and in the tradition of the previous years, which have seen the likes of Ozzy Osbourne, Mötley Crüe, The Smashing Pumpkins, Slash, Public Enemy,…etc
Sponsored by KROQ, the 2-day festival will feature Delta Spirit, Anuhea, Jimmy Eat World, Rebelution, Beats Antique, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Jane’s Addiction and Erykah Badu’s new Twitter target, The Flaming Lips!
You see this guy right here with the green laser? Don’t fuck with everybody’s show. This is not a fucking game. You’re going to get fucked up and kicked out, I don’t want that shit. So chill the fuck out.’
The video link that was erroneously posted on Pitchfork by the Flaming Lips of the Music Video “The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face”, which features Erykah Badu, is unedited and unapproved.. Sorry!! We, the Flaming Lips, accept full responsibility for prematurely having Pitchfork post it.
Despite a vague resemblance, more due to the hairdo than anything else, I really wonder what made them choose this guy, he is not an actor but a drummer! And it’s kind of ridiculous because it looks like they are trying to match current Pop’s straight blond hair, but when he was Hawkins’ age, he didn’t really look like this!
GG Allin? Buried with his song ‘When I Die’ (they don’t say under what form, a recording? A K-7? A vinyl?) and a bottle of Jim Beam…Really, not even $500,000 worth of heroin?
Of course, the songs are off her upcoming album, ‘The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than The Driver Of The Screw, And Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do’ out June 19 on Epic.
the extreme right leader is not happy about it and is considering suing Madonna if she uses the same video in France when she performs on July 14 in Paris and on August 21 in Nice. Le Pen, declared: It’s understandable when ageing singers who need publicity go to such extremes. Her songs don’t work any more’.
He had a very good contact with the crowd, making friendly conversation with many people there, and someone asked him to play Carly Rae Jepsen’s ‘Call Me Maybe’, a song he has apparently covered during a BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge. ‘I’m not going to do this song again!’ he said as if he had been caught doing something borderline sinful
a series of creative, complex, layered melodies, and ‘Peace on the Rise’ also had these Sonic Youth’s echoes, with weird deconstructions and nevertheless a catchy melody. I am not sure how he manages to build these fetching songs, while using such unusual weirdness and what seems to be a distinct tuning, but he does!
People are sheep, this is why they are so easily fooled by political and religious ideas, they all follow the current tendency, and accept to like whatever they are fed with. It just confirms that human nature is just not that imaginative and independent, and is not often able to look outside the box.
They have an unassuming presence on stage, five guys doing what they have to do without unnecessary talking, occasionally sipping their beer bottles, with just a brief and humble introduction by Stuart Braithwaite at the beginning of the show
Etta James, Whitney Houston, Donald ‘Duck’ Dunn (The Blues Brothers), Donna Summer, Robin Gibb (The Bee Gees), Don Cornelius, Adam Yauch (The Beastie Boys), Tommy Marth (The Killers), Dick Clark, Levon Helm (The Band), Chuck Brown (Godfather of Go-Go), Earl Scruggs, Greg Ham (Men at Work), Davy Jones (The Monkees), Doc Watson, Chris Ethridge (Flying Burrito Brothers), Jim Marshall (guitar amp), Jimmy Ellis (the Trammps), Ronnie Montrose (guitarist), Bob Weston (Fleetwood Mac),…
We were told by the management not to allow anyone into the O2 Arena who is wearing a Slash T-shirt and we are asking anyone who is to remove it and if they refuse they will be turned away.’
the tropical rhythms, the steel drums, the bright African guitars, but not the Vampire Weekend way, no Lord Huron is more eerie, more abstract, more on the dreamy side, they attack the large open spaces, climb the high mountains and cross the mighty seas.
An original documentary film, shot in Los Angeles, New York and England, will also be screened and will feature new photos, interviews and behind the scenes footage with photographers Ed Colver, Henry Diltz, Jill Furmanovsky, Lynn Goldsmith, Bob Gruen, Norman Seeff, Mark Seliger and Guy Webster, as well as appearance by Alice Cooper, Henry Rollins, rock photo collector Michael Ochs among others.
They only should have repeated that the incorrect spelling on the supposed suicide note was a mistake done by the police to clarify any other false theories, but beside this, it’s quite good,… Is Spinner reading rock nyc?
the kind of music that could make you travel through a space hole, forget about time while transporting you into another dimension. His majestic music is truly unusual, progressively building a transcendent emotion
The video was directed by George Salisbury, and was available on Vimeo until it turned private probably because of the full-butt nudity! Thanks to the gods of the internet, someone had uploaded on YouTube, which allowed me to watch it a few times. It has unfortunately since being removed for its nudity content! It so insane.
Jimmy Page should not be upset since, as rock nyc’s Helen Bach reported, the Olympics organizers asked whether Keith Moon would be able to take part of the celebration, as Roger Daltrey explained in an interview:
This song has already had the longest-running No.1 this year, what else does he want? There is a point when you don’t even call this milking the cow, it is beyond the metaphor and is there still some milk left anyway?
No, I don’t think I could handle that, I think that would be unkind and unfair to him too. He needs to be where he is, y’ know — I’m sure he’s occupied.
49 teenage girls have been injured at a Justin Bieber concert in Oslo, Norway. The pop superstar was giving a free concert of just four songs outside the Oslo Opera House last Wednesday, and thousands of fans had gathered
she could have been either a wild female chimpanzee escaped from her cage, or a girl being electrocuted, I am not sure, but soon it was over. People clapped at the end of her horror movie, which, I have read, is influenced by Artaud’s Theater of Cruelty
Beck’s son, 8 year-old Cosimo, joined his father on stage at the Santa Barbara Bowl last week, and started the boldest moves during E-Pro. You can hear the crowd in awe screaming and cheering in front of the mini Beck jumping around and even trying some break dance pirouettes.
think mean B.B. King, mad muddy Mississippi rock-blues, trucker music for the open-fields or infinitely straight roads of the west, and you may get the idea
