Yes Legend Chris Squire Fighting Cancer

The 89-year-old icon died in his sleep last week after an illness. His legacy was hailed by artists and statesmen across the world. King's body will be laid in state at Las Vegas' Palm South Jones Mortuary on Friday (May 22).

The controversial move was a result of legal action between the departed duo and Ozzy's management. Now Bordin tells Radio.com: "That was a really kind of f***ed-up thing. It's funny that no one's actually mentioned that.

"That wasn't what I was going in expecting to do. It wasn't the way it was presented to me at all. I never knew that - but that doesn't lessen the fact that it happened."

He refuses to "throw anyone under a bus" by suggesting who might be to blame, but adds: "I will say this - to hear the original guitar, bass and drum tracks in my headphones while I was recording was one of the most insane things I'll ever experience.

Both band launched a "demand campaign" on their websites where they asked fans to request that the tour hit their city and the bands have mapped out the tour routing with the help of 1.5 million fans.

The tour will feature support from In This Moment and From Ashes To New and it set to kick off on September 4th in Lexington, KY at the Rupp Arena and conclude on October 9th in Glen Falls, NY at the Glen Falls Civic Center.

Five Finger Death Punch guitarist Zoltan Bathory had this to say, "This tour is shaping up to be the perfect storm. We are really good friends with Papa Roach so for years we've been talking about touring together and it's finally coming together in a big way.

"Both 5fdp and Papa Roach are bands of the people - our fans are who propelled us to success. So what better way than to give the fans ownership in the tour? In the world of Wikipedia and Kickstarter where crowd funding and crowd sourcing has become the standard of community effort and the new way of making things happen this might quite possibly be the future of touring - you simply ask the fans where they want you to go".

Speaking at the Spooky Empire Horror Convention in Orlando, Florida, he says new material is now on the horizon and that his solo band, Philip H Anselmo And The Illegals, is also writing music.

Dressed in a black suit with red trim, a white shirt and a black string tie, Dylan sang "The Night We Called It a Day," a jazz standard from the 1940s that appeared on Dylan's recent album, the Frank Sinatra tribute Shadows in the Night. Dylan's voice took the lead against a smoky, late-night arrangement that stayed true to the studio version.

"Beautiful," Letterman said, stepping up to greet Dylan once the song finished. "Thank you, Bob." He turned then to the band, noting, "all brushes."

It's to be directed by Julien Temple, who made the Sex Pistols' Great Rock And Roll Swindle, and stars Johnny Flynn as Ray and George Mackay as Dave.

The new album, "Rivals", was released on Tuesday and here is what Coal Chamber frontman Dez Fafara had to say in celebration, "It's been 13 years since Coal Chamber put out a record. We all worked so hard on this music to make sure the whole album was a stellar push forward for the band and not some nostalgia trip!

"If you like it heavy and unique you'll love Rivals! This record is full of crushing huge hooks and big down tuned riffs to move ya! Support Heavy music in all its forms!"

The North American tour will be kicking off on July 24th in Tucson, AZ at the Rialto Theater and will conclude on August 22nd in Santa Ana, CA at The Observatory.

Tyler issued the single to radio last week and delivered the debut live performance of the tune on the season 14 finale of American Idol on May 13th.

The famed guitarist has announced that he'll be working on his first-ever Americana project with help from New Jersey newgrass band Railroad Earth.

The pair teams on a 13-track album titled Ashes and Dust that consists of 'folky, singer-songwriter, even Celtic" songs Haynes has written over the past 30 years, Consequence of Sound reports.

The band debuted some of their latest songs at a showcase gig in D'Angelico Guitars in New York this week. Fallon tells Alexander Milas on TeamRock Radio's Metal Hammer Magazine Show: "'Psychic warfare' is a lyric from the first track, X-Ray Visions.

"It's about a guy holed up in a motel for unexplained reasons, and he's under great duress, being attacked by psychically-empowered agents of unknown origin. At least, that's the back story I have in my head."

The perception that Aerosmith had broke with "Dream On" off their debut album is not entirely accurate. As drummer Joey Kramer recalls to InTheStudio host Redbeard,

"The first album really didn't go anywhere until "Dream On" was released (as a single) three or four times. "Dream On" was a single when this record (Toys InThe Attic) hit."

It was the third release of "Dream On" as a single, after the release of their second album Get Your Wings, that lit the fuse for Aerosmith's breakout album Toys In The Attic. What followed was an monster album selling over 8 million copies and producing the timeless classics "Walk this Way" and "Sweet Emotion", not to mention the first anti-child abuse song "Uncle Salty", the circular contagion of "No More, No More", a swingin' cover of Bullmoose Jackson's bawdy, "Big Ten Inch" and the riff rock title track "Toys in the Attic".

Steven Tyler, Joey Kramer and Brad Whitford take us back to this critical moment in history where Aerosmith began their rise as America's greatest hard rock band.

The mobile exhibit dubbed Les Paul's Big Sound Experience will make its first stop in New York City's Times Square. It's a music exploration where the visitor get to experience the sound and technology innovations by Les Paul, as well as some hands-on interactive entertainment. Best of all, Les Paul's Big Sound Experience is free and open to the public!

Times Square is also the site for a sold-out celebration of Les Paul later that same day, to be held at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square.

Due June 29 (June 30 in North America), the package presents 15 songs from the guitarist's solo career plus two new tunes: "Guantanamo" and "How Can I Help You."

Drummer Jonathan Schang tells Prog: "The last several years have provided a wealth of experiences, such as becoming more adept in the studio, honing our songwriting, arranging and production skills, touring, playing great festivals, and even working intimately with John Wetton to bring his era of the King Crimson songbook to life.

The Church Singer Steve Kilbey had this to say about the clip: "Laurel Canyon has been dreamed up by video collaborator Clint Lewis, with admittedly not a lot of input from the band.

"It concerns nostalgia and remembrance of things past. It's a very eye-candy vid, with the handsome but weird couple trying to get it on despite the fog of time. This is about as west-coast sound as The Church ever gets. Pull out a hanky and enjoy."

Bassist Michael LePond last year said the album would see a return to their classic sound. And guitarist Michael Romeo reports while that remains the case, Underworld has its own character.

He says: "Every song is to-the-point and fine-tuned, with us paying a lot of attention to the hooks, voices, riffs, and keeping the interest and the energy high for the entire record.

In October Crosby told the Idaho Statesman: "I happen to know that he's hanging out with somebody that's a purely poisonous predator now. And that's karma. He's gonna get hurt. But I understand why it happened. I'm just sad about it. I'm always sad when I see love get tossed in the gutter."

But he's now apologized for the comments, saying he had no right to criticize his longterm Crosby, Stills, Nash And Young bandmate and his partner.

He tells The Howard Stern Show: "I shot my mouth off when I shouldn't have. I shouldn't have done it and here's the real reason why: I've screwed up massively. Daryl Hannah never wound up in a Texas prison. I've screwed up way worse than that girl.
