TMZ reports: Lance Bass says he's gay and
in a stable relationship with a reality show star.
Over the last few months, TMZ shot video
of Bass and "Amazing Race" winner Reichen Lehmkuhl, and although there
was a buzz the two were a couple, they went to considerable lengths not
to be seen in the same shot. In one video, as they walked through a park
in New York together and saw the cameras, they immediately separated.
Now, Bass reveals to People he is indeed
gay and in a "very stable" relationship with Lehmkuhl. Bass told People
that he feared coming out while he was in the boy band 'N Sync because
he felt "it would overpower everything." [now that's a big shock� read

guy in the crowd. "What the f***'s wrong with you guys down here?" Axl
said after instructing the rest of his band to stop playing. "The security
guys, you guys are out of control. The guy was having some fun, so you're
gonna beat him? You guys gotta go. You're outta here." [see full story

has checked himself into an undisclosed rehab center after having "admitted
to himself and those close to him that he needs help and is making the
proactive move to seek it." In a statement released today Morgan said,
"I'm deeply sorry that this news comes
right before a planned tour, especially one that I was so excited about,
and I hope that everyone understands," said Morgan in a statement. "I need
help with addictions that I can't kick on my own. These things are making
me sick, and could potentially harm me permanently, so I need to take care
of them as soon as possible. I hope the tour goes well, and we hope to
be on the road again soon.[see full story for more]- Click

| L.A.
Guns Vs Tracii Guns |
Day in Rock reports: [Phil Lewis and Co issued
the following statement, according to Sleazeroxx.com] It has come to our
attention that a former member of L.A. Guns with rights to use the name
has put a Tribute band together with some of the guys he played with before
the band were signed to Polygram records in 1986. It is a band that never
recorded a record together just played some local shows. Twenty years ago.
So if you intend to book or attend a concert by this band you should know
that a singer who's voice you have never heard on a single LAG record will
be attempting to cover LAG classics with a drummer that hasn't played in
a band since 1989. Unfortunately this situation has developed due to the
fact that Tracii has burned every bridge that he has ever crossed and these
are the only guys left that take him seriously. It should be apparent to
anyone with the slightest understandING on how a band operates that certain
people are indeed toxic which is why Steve Riley, Phil Lewis, Adam Hamilton
and Stacy Blades decided that the band had to continue after our former
guitarist jumped ship two weeks before the release of a new record and
world tour four years ago. Since then the band has gone on to prove that
live and in the studio the loss has not hurt us a bit, in fact public and
press option has made it clear that we are in fact much better off. [We
attempted to contact Tracii for comment but had not heard back by press
time. However, going by his online sites, it appears Tracii is touring
under the name Tracii Guns not L.A. Guns. But it would be funny to see
him touring under the banner of another band he lent his name to, Guns
N' Roses. ]

Lawsuit |
AP reports: Karaoke night sounded a sour note
for a Syracuse bar that is being sued in federal court for using unlicensed
songs. "This is unbelievable to me," said Mark Bullis, one of the owners
of the Bull & Bear Pub in Syracuse. "It almost feels like extortion.
We're being bullied into this, and it's just ridiculous. It's the little
guy getting beat up by the big guy," he said. [see full story for more]-

Slaves to Rumors |
Blabbermouth reports: Chris Cornell has shot
down rumors that AUDIOSLAVE's forthcoming, Brendan O'Brien-produced album
"Revelations" will be the singer's last with the band, as he has been working
on material for his first solo album in more than seven years.
"We hear rumors that AUDIOSLAVE is breaking
up all the time," Cornell explained to MTV.com. "Even in the beginning,
when we were having business problems, and we weren't necessarily going
to be a band, we were still going to put out a record. We made a record
and we loved it. I think that's where it starts - the idea that we sort
of started on shaky ground. You would hope that by now, putting out our
third record, people wouldn't be thinking that way or be worried about
it. But it comes up. I always just ignore it."[see full story for more]-
