May 28, 2010 – How could a meeting between a make-up artist and Kiss’ Gene Simmons go so wrong? Well according to documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court yesterday the guitarist wanted more from her than she was willing to give and it didn’t involve make-up. 
May 28, 2010 – Didn’t Bret Michaels look healthy on American Idol on Wednesday night? There is a chance he wasn’t. 
May 27, 2010 - File this under “You can’t be good at everything.” Elton John was arguably the biggest solo musician in the world in the seventies and he was easily in the top 10 in the eighties but it seems he was too busy conquering the world to learn to cook. 
May 27, 2010 – The good news is the Faces are back together but the not-so-fine print says Rod Stewart will not be in the mix. 
May 28, 2010 – “What-eva” seems to be what many are saying about Wednesday’s American Idol finale. While 24.2 million viewers checked out Simon Cowell’s swan song it was the show’s lowest rated finale since season one which could spell trouble for winner Lee DeWyze.

May 18, 2010 – Norah Jones says she hasn’t done too many festivals in the past because her music was too “intimate and quiet.” 
May 11, 2010 – The name Phil Collins reminds us of countless hits, huge arena tours and complicated drumming. How about the Alamo? 
April 5, 2010 – Sting seems to be fed up with our paradigms around pot! The singer says we, as a society, spend too much time putting marijuana users in jail when legalizing the substance could feed the hungry of the world.

August 13, 2009 – The term super-group has become so overused that you’re already rolling your eyes just reading this, right? A great super-group has to be greater than the sum of its parts. There is no choice in this matter. First off, it’s usually near impossible for someone to walk away from a legendary band and surpass that success. Expectations are usually too freakin’ high so it’s all in the chemistry.
Feb. 17, 2009 - Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters seems to have had his challenges with leader Dave Grohl. It’s a band and there’s bound to be a little pissing.
Nov. 18, 2008 – Even folks who don’t believe in the

Oct. 21, 2008 – Foo Fighters might soon have their own room in the DVD store. The band has announced another live DVD, ‘Foo Fighters: Live at Wembley Stadium’ featuring 18 tunes recorded on their two sold out Wembley Stadium shows. The concerts (Friday and Saturday June 6&7) were huge events for the band, 165,000 tickets were sold, their biggest ever headline stand. The set includes tunes from all six Foo albums and features the current line-up of Dave Grohl (vocals/guitar), Taylor Hawkins (drums/vocals), Nate Mendel (bass) and Chris Shiflett (guitar). Guest appearances include co-founding Foo Fighters guitarist Pat Smear, Wallflowers keyboardist Rami Jaffee who has been a regular contributor, also violinist/cellist Jessy Greene and percussionist Drew Hester.
Oct. 9, 2008 - I finally know what Presidential hopeful, John McCain does in his spare time – He rocks to the Foo Fighters. Yeah right! The band says they’re not interested in having the aging politician as a fan and especially mad that he used their song ‘My Hero’ in McCain’s campaign. Jackson Browne has sued McCain over the same thing and Ann and Nancy Wilson were pissed when the Republicans used the Heart tune ‘Barracuda’ at a recent rally.
