Resolution J4637 is a great name for a tune but an even better tribute to a man who’s dynamic presence changed the climate of music in his time. Yauch was paid fitting tribute by the Senate of New York

What crap. Slash is silly. Thank God for the hat or we would think he was Howard Stern but at least Stern embraces his age, Slash thinks hes 20. What he has done here is assembled a band with an Axl impersonator and made a song that will impress about 20 people and horrify their kids

Dee Snider is a bit of a tool  He looks more disturbing now than in full makeup.  He is embracing his eccentricities though.  First that bit on Celebrity Apprentice and

Joey Ramones birthday is a huge event and tribute time and brother Mickey Leigh always serves up a good time. Say what you will about Mickey I don’t really think its exploitation its a living, yeah but I also think there is tremendous respect there. At least I would like to think so

What I find almost as annoying is the ego required to release a self documentary when you as a band have been around for a shorter span of time than my Doc Martins. Lets face it this is a brilliant way of cashing in on a career that has the shelf life of Wonder Bread.

This sister venue to the infamous Greek Theater was none to please with the less fortunates drooling on their concrete. They run a respectable establishment, why Pitbull is playing there in August. How awful to have these louse filthing up the facade each evening

To be honest there is nothing new about it. It is as if there were lost demo’s or something, it is that true to early Everclear. I suppose the die hard fans (are there any?) will love this. If you are stuck in the last decade, well hot diggity for you, you’ve got a new tune to love

I am always amazed at how the organizers of this event make it look so easy. Face it you’re dealing with young bands with no cash, big ego and massive confusion and you do it for a day pack it all up and hit another city in the morning, Its insanity and it is fantastic.

Let’s face it Conan has become second fiddle cool to Fallon. Jimmy has the comedic edge and now most definitely has the musical edge with his Late Night program. The compilation will offer up songs featuring Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Justin Timberlake, Eddie Vedder and Dave Matthews

Its times like this when you cant help but wonder why stadiums aren’t filled at the mention of his tour. Ok, he hits some tanked notes but over all- its sung so passionately that it really doesn’t matter. The details of William Becketts break from the band for solo adventures is irrelevant at this poin

Chris Isaak is a perfect person to celebrate the Sun Studios experience. That rockabilly look and twang is actually accurate to what made the Memphis Recording Service the landmark it is.

100%, yes 100 percent of the take goes directly to Strummerville charity. Strummerville is a registered charity that gives support to aspiring musicians and help to projects that help change the world through music.

For the first couple minutes I thought I was going to love this song. The music really is vintage Elton John and the verse voice is fabulous its the chorus that made me cringe. Its the “yeah” that sounds far too rehearsed.

rocknyc has interviewed Bryce twice and have found him to be an intelligent and deeply spiritual man. A refreshing sense in an ego stormed rock world. First up is a free dowload from the acoustic tour that took place last summer.

New week means new shows, or reruns served up on paper plates. Usher on Saturday Night Live, and that isnt paniful at all. I have to say this is the best week for music on television in a very long time!

But wait.. what do I notice about the dates? No headlining New York City, and No headline date for Boston? Minaj will only touch the Northeast with these radio deals. Again, I must stress that if you don’t play these citys you are not on tour.

I’m not sure why he would do this- unless of course he was sitting around in his garage and someone recorded it and smuggled it out and put it on the internet as a cruel joke.

It’s always fun to hear a tough ass band do a pop tune. This may be the reason Fearless Records “Punk Goes…” series is so wonderful. This contradiction of style works amazingly well. Even musically, Coheed and Cambria make it their own

Word is Chief Keef is taking the rap world by storm. I don’t live in the rap world so I cant qualify that but hey, good for him. Kanye is such a lyrical genius that he can pretty much cough a tune and it would work on some level
