Eminem SNL Lip Sync |
A search of Google News service turns up a story on Hundredpercenter Newswires blog spot by Malachy Joyce that says "Eminem looked foolish, for not only lip synching, but doing a very bad job of it.
"At one point, Eminem, who was out of synch with the voice over, put his mic down near his hip and stopped rapping. However, the song with voice continued." [see full story for more including a link to a video]- Click Here for the Full Story

Feud of the Day: Avril Vs Ashlee |
"You know what? There are a lot of people out there today, who have become stars or famous musicians -- I wouldn't really define them as a star -- with a record only because they have connections and only because they have money and for the wrong reasons," Lavigne, 20, told Billboard.com.
"And it sucks. Actually, I know for a fact
there are some young female artists who don't even sing on their own records
and who don't sing live. And that is pathetic." [see full story for more]-

Stereolab Box of Rarities |
Now, it's been about nine years since the last Switched On comp, so there's quite a collection of ephemera to wade through-- and it would appear their newest collection is designed with the completist in mind. According to a post on the band's website, next spring will see the release of a giant 3xCD compilation stretching back to the 18-minute majesty of "Jenny Ondioline", which was first released in 1993. The set, tentatively slated for mid-April, is being mastered in a few weeks, at which point the final running order (and presumably, the title) will be fixed.

Jay-Z Boots R.Kelly |
Kelly went on stage Friday night and spotted two members of the audience with guns, so he walked off-stage while security dealt with the problem, according to his publicist Allan Mayer. Once he was given an all-clear by security, who found no weapons, he began to walk back on-stage when he, along with two of his security guards, were reportedly sprayed in the face with pepper spray by someone in Jay-Z's entourage.
Kelly and his guards were taken to St Vincent's
Hospital in New York for treatment. Kelly was reportedly ready to resume
the tour on Saturday at Madison Square Garden but was informed by the promoter
that he had been banned from the venue and Jay-Z was to perform as the
sole headliner. [see full story for more]- Click

Howie Day Collide |
The breakthrough smash rocketed all the way to No. 20 on the Adult Top 40 Airplay Chart and was recently highlighted in its entirety on the hit WB series "One Tree Hill." After the show aired, Day's album sales erupted, rising more than 73%. In addition, "Collide" is garnering extensive airplay. A video for the song was recently filmed with director Chris Mills (Modest Mouse, Kanye West).
Earlier this year, Day performed a stunning
acoustic version of "Collide" during an appearance on a European radio
show. When the song became a hot commodity among Day tape traders, fan
demand prompted Epic to issue a special edition of STOP ALL THE WORLD NOW.
The special version, scheduled for a November 16th release, will feature
four bonus tracks, including the acoustic rendition of "Collide" (and "Brace
Yourself," taken from the same performance), along with two rare b-sides
("This Time," "Standing In The Sun") produced by Youth (The Verve, Crowded
House, Dido) during the album's original recording sessions at Olympic
Studios in London. [see full story for more]- Click

...The vision for the project was "to create
good heavy metal with strong melodies and lots of harmony vocals like QUEEN,
URIAH HEEP & THE SWEET. Everything will be packed in a superb production
by producer and guitarist Lars Chriss from LION'S SHARE," who has co-written
most of the songs together with Christian Rivel. Several MP3 clips (not
full songs) are currently available for download from the following locations:
"The Calling" (www.lionsshare.org/sound/callingeditascap-doesnt-want-labels-to-promote-their-artists-go-with-bmi-next-time), "The King Is

The Gambits Call It Quits |
Hey everybody. Chris here. The Gamits are calling it quits. Yes, it's true. There are many reasons for this happening. Mainly it is just time to move on. As many of you know there have been a few different people in this band over the years and I am the only original member. Here is a list of everyone who has played in this band; Matt Vanleuven ( bass mostly and drums at one point ) Matt Martinez ( bass ) Forrest Bartosh ( drums ) Scott Weigel ( bass ) Luke Mathers ( bass ) Brian Pentagram ( drums ) Scott Swarers ( bass ) and Jason Walker ( drums ). I would like to thank every one of you for being in the band even if it was just for a couple weeks or a couple years. I will hold back from thanking anyone specifically except band members because if I thank one person I have to thank about 500. Ok, I will make one exception and thank Virgil Dickerson because he was always been my right hand man and has supported the Gamits through thick and thin.
The current line up worked very hard and
helped to put out what I believe to be the best album we ever did. (Antidote)
It received overwhelmingly good reviews and has hopefully left it's own
little mark on this music scene. For that I am very proud. [see full story
