Hel Does SNL: Joe Jackson
Look how adorably young he is here, all spiting Brit. He had yet to be Top 40 but he was on his way. Isn’t it sad how SNL has tanked when it started out as cutting edge as this?

The cool thing about online communities is the amount of weirdo’s it can attract. I imagine this one to be a real humdinger. Not only is it the original fan but it’s there kid and maybe even their grandkid an intergenerational festival of Floyd.
Rob Zombie is a gnarly old guy who is quite simply a genius. He has been riding the ‘horror circuit’ for years now and is absolutely brilliant at his art. He’s no spring chicken but he shows no falter when on stage. He is boundless energy- boundless.
Yahoo with one of the most recognized brandings of modern day should have their finger on the pulse of what the people want. After all as internet royalty their traffic is the perfect sampling of the world as we know it- which leads me to surprise with this line up
Supposedly this will be a ‘fly on the wall’ vantage point with interviews from the band, their producers as well as roadies and music journalists. Basically anyone who had anything to say about these guys get their paragraph
They did good though with “Is This It?’ in 2001, one of the coolest warm up at the gym songs of all time but 4 years later “Juice Box” left me cold, their tabloid behavior a bore and when they all woke up to think they were super models they got demoted to the external hard drive. So, now they’re back
Morrissey has canceled so many shows on this latest tour from ulcers to sick moms to pneumonia I am glad I was able to see him at all. I have been listening to him non stop since that first October show and I have not gotten sick of one tune yet. I believe that on average I am hearing ‘Shoplifters” at least three times a day
Boone at age 78 is getting a bit feisty and dare I say delusional in his latest rant. Boon went on Fox Business News with Neil Cavuto. Boone brought a copy of Rules For Radicals
But fear not for Dana Martin is a diligent homicidal maniac who recently sent notes to networks stating, “I arranged for another hit man. This new hit man will place an explosive device…
What the heck!? This is a weird week with virtually no good news on the musical front. There is Garbage, there is Kesha and there is Macklemore and Ray Lewis…
Mick Jones in that idiotic jumpsuit, Paul…being Paul and no Topper.. instead a Terry Chimes/Tory Grimes fill in of a fella…and Joe. Joe in freshly shaved Mohawk looking so fresh faced that its hard to think such power could come from mug
A bit late don’t you think A woman who had such amazing pop appeal hasn’t done much since she hunkered down with walking bacteria John Mayer. New album? New Tour? Nah, just new pictures and old tunes and the same boobs and doe eyes as calling card. C’mon sister fire up some music.
Lets zip to Perth Australia where Axl whips the wireless microphone into the crowd knocking out a guys teeth. Nice one! One Darren Wright took it in the chops and now, it’s time for the law teams to get their groove on.
Asked who she would like to play her husband, Linda Ramone added: “Of course everybody would want Johnny Depp to play him, because he’s cool and looks good
"Post Hardcore" band Enter Shikari has been one of my faves for years. Their intriguing politics and their ridiculous energy makes their live shows electric- they literally fly off the
The cosmetic industry is one of the cruelest of all as it does repeated testings that would make you puke up a lung- notice I said repeated. Decades of the same torturous tests with the same result- just so your lips will be the perfect shade of pink.
I honestly respect his acknowledgement of ‘past prime’. So many artists will trudge themselves up on a stage a shell of their former greatness that for Seger to say 70 is the cap, is wonderful
A feel good musical journey through racism and stereotype. Keep in mind this cat ended up moere wealthy than you will ever be- simply by having $800 determination and a damn good ear.
Why didnt the security guard give the dude a boost? Why didnt Scott jump down? Why does the guy at the end of the video clip start singing “Dead and Bloated” when nothing happend?
The band tried to reform a couple times and Peter Murphy has always incorporated Bauhaus into his solo sets, but the “Mr Moonlight Tour’ will be 100% Bauhaus material. Does this mean we get no live ‘Cuts You Up’?
Rolling Stone announced it so it must be true…right? Billboard reported that the band will play “fewer than 20” arena dates in North America, with Australian promoter Paul Dainty and Virgin music promoting the tour.
Justin Timberlake comes to New York for Saturday Night Live and stays the week with his pal Jimmy Fallon, This is the show to watch this week cuz when these two get together its a riot. There isnt much else. Musical guests are becoming a rarity.
Adoring fans, and people at his beck and call, you’d love that life right?
For awhile perhaps, but when you have everything you want…..what more could you want?
I have been to many events where parents use their kids as ‘cute pawns’ for attention from rockers. Even Morrissey was face to face with an 11 year old boy who instantly became prey to the crowd. Kids have the ‘awww’ factor, to some.
In honor of the event many artists will offer up unique recordings or special offers. Record companies get involved as well. Last year we scored some fabulous vinyl from The Clash- I personally only liked it for the cover art. I want this poster though, its pretty cool and rumor has it the photo was taken in New England right before “Are You Experienced” was released in 1967
3OH!3 were the sound of 2008, approximately. I remember going to see them at Toads Place in New Haven, CT- I have never seen performers move faster. I don’t know what was in their RedBull but they were fired up to the point of it being impossible to take a photograph. They appeared as streaks
But wait there is redemption. Little John! I freaking love that guy with his grill and shades. I love how his look completely contradicts his intellect. This is no moron thug, this guy is sharp as a tack and a fabulous on fast thinker. My hope is that he wins the season- cuz he’s cool and no one else is.
Soo… is it that? The vanity of comparison? I can see that as a possibility. Comparing a the two is simply unfair. Bowie is fragile and pale Morrissey still holding court quite well. I think, that this is the true issue. Why else? Lovers quarrel?
Rockers are responsible (more than I am) Randy Blythe facing the music with such grace is pretty damn impressive. There was never public drama, he took it like a man and it was inspiring.
Well then, how will the marketing folks at Voli handle this one? Funny? Yeah of course but as a spokesman do you really want ‘pussy juice’ on the bottle of the product that creates your paycheck?
Ted Nugent isn’t exactly the coolest guy in town. He has to be one of the most repulsive humans I have yet to read about. I am unsure about his fans but considering most fans are more psychotic than their idols.. its pretty scary.
During foie gras production, huge amounts of grain are pumped into the stomachs of geese through metal pipes, which are rammed down their throats several times a day. Their distended livers ‘ which can swell to up to 10 times their normal size
Something missing? Yup. Starting this week Jimmy Kimmel is no longer included in my roster of what’s on for the week. I see no reason in promoting anything for someone who proved themselves to be such rancid scum. Go find your program guide if you’re interested cuz he’s dead to me.
The last thing this world needs is a rock God behaving like a human. We need more psycho Rick James stuff. But Prince lived through some normalcy and meh… But this… this is Prince. There is nothing ‘average’ about him.
None of the above issues are, of course, as important as Jimmy Kimmel himself, who has finally revealed his show to have an overwhelming loss of meaning. Tune in and relive the intellectual fog of the 1950s.
Why do guitarist do that dick rubbing move whre they both cuddle up really close with down turned heads like their collectively moving a moving a heavy piece of furniture or something. Its one of the dumbest things I have ever seen yet nearly every band does it
I love the idea of the rock and roll camp its just the smarmy sales pitch the site offers that I find offensive. it really is a fanatics dream come true or a corporate fun time- but I question Beck and Wilson.. WHY? I’d like to think they both find it amusing more than anything else.
There is nothing new, there is nothing cutting edge and there is nothing at all cool about it- other than the name of the artists involved. Oh, and there will be a tour as well.
But this song is so ridiculous that I cant help but love it. Which is the magic of Pitbull. I find him so hilarious that I adore him. I don’t even know what hes talking about half the time.
“One of the cool things about coming back was that we decided everyone has to be in on every idea, or else it’s out. We did ten songs [for the album], maybe there will be eleven songs on there,”
An app called ‘Bands In Town” is stunning. Set your location and BOOM every show in your area right at your finger tips. Links to maps and ticket sites and it even pulls from your iTunes library to chart their tour activity. A music lovers dream right?
This cruise though, its pretty interesting. I really admire the cost. Starting at just $599. its not a massive rip off as some others are and the Florida to Bahamas itinerary is solid.
I suppose after weeks of yuck we deserved it but this really is note worthy. Considering there isn’t much new material wise the guests chosen are pretty dang fabulous.
So when SNL attempt to jams garbage like The Lumineers up my butt I take it as a personal insult. Look, I know how fabulous it USED to be- don’t try to serve me this lifeless sludge now.
It looks great in a very dark way. Let’s face it we would all love to turn back the clock to our glory days, we just can’t. I have decided to support Adam and his pursuit of happiness, after all he brought a heap of joy to a lot of folks- so let’s give it back to him now.
From the album The Savage Playground, ‘California’ is a sad attempt at glam metal- I think. That’s the problem there is no genre represented here. I love the YouTube comments though, calling the guitarist fat “there is no room for fat in glam”.
The Staples Center will also donate a portion of the ticket sales to PETA. How on Earth did this guy pull this off? Considering he is now officially the king of cancelation its a wonder any of his shows don’t come with a clause, let alone be granted concessions.
Last year we took part in Record Store Day, it was pretty fab scoring some freshly pressed albums and some rarities as well. I’m not much of an audiophile and I was around when disc spun so its not that big of a deal ha ha but the kids- they love it.
The idea is you would get a ridiculous amount of free albums (this ad was for 9 free- but there were offers that went as high as 11) if you would promise to buy more in the future for a low low price and shipping and handling.
I love her, I hate her and its a cycle that continues nearly constantly. Today I hate her for ruining my song! Especially the care free opening exhibit. She went all Williamsburg on it, why oh why, must the plaid run so thick?
