Report: Grateful Dead Spring tour could lead to new studio album with all new songs…

The surviving members of the Dead are thinking about going back into the studio again after their tour to record new original songs for a new album.

The Dead hasn’t recorded a new studio album since 1989’s “Built to Last”. The last Grateful Dead studio record before Jerry Garcia’s death.

Billboard reports:

A new Grateful Dead album would ROCK! I hope it happens. Bring it on.

The Somalia Pirates…Aaaarrgghhhhhh…

So people thinks pirates out in the ocean still don’t exist? Well we thought wrong. I have been following this story. I think it’s pretty amazing, it seems like it’s an action movie but it’s happening in real life. A ship Captain has been held hostage for ransom by these pirates, they are asking for $2 million or something like that. The Captain tried to escape but they got him back, just like a movie. The FBI and the Navy are trying to stop it all.

And now Obama is finally onto it. Lets hope these pirates get caught and locked away before anything dangerous happens to them out there. Obama is kind of late picking up on what’s going on over there.

I didn’t want to blog about this stuff yet until it’s all over with, but just wanted to let readers know I’ve been paying attention to it.

Lets hope the pirates don’t kill the Captain and hope he gets home safe.

I really enjoyed “Southland”, it’s better than “ER”…

I watched “Southland” this afternoon on my DVR, the premiere of the brand new primetime drama show that was aired last night. I thought it was very impressive. One of the best new shows in a very long time. I thought the acting, the story writing was all excellent. Probably the most realistic, cop and crime fiction TV show on, better than “Law & Order” series.

What’s even cooler that Hollywood film star, Tom Everett Scott had a cameo in it’s debut episode. Don’t remember who Tom Everett Scott is? He starred in such films like “An American Werewolf in Paris”, “That Thing You Do”, “Van Wilder”, and heck he was even a cast member of “ER” way back in 2003!!

Consider me a fan of “Southland”, which I will probably watch every Thursday night. I hope “Southland” will be a successful show and hope it stays on the air for a long time.

Cool Video: Loretta Hunt speaks more on Dana White on ESPN…

Loretta Hunt speaks more on Dana White via sattelite, you can actually see her on camera this time…she says in her article she wasn’t trying to piss Dana off, she was just doing her job…reporting sports news on Sherdog.com that she was hired to do…but she knows that all of Sherdog’s work will not make everyone happy…she also says Dana has the right to be upset…is she actually sticking up for the guy? That’s what it’s looking like.

Cool Video: Loretta Hunt responds to Dana White video on FOX SPORTS!!!

Here we go, sports TV talk shows are already onto this, FOX’s “Fight Game” had Loretta Hunt on the phone talking to the people on the talk show. She says she didn’t even see the video, it seems like she doesn’t even care, and her story about “Managers/agents not getting credentials” wasn’t meant to be taken personally. They even said Dana White was unprofesional.

Willie Nelson broke the news on his official website that the Boxmasters have cancelled the rest of their Canadian tour after the band getting booed at a concert in Toronto. Willie Nelson’s website doesn’t even know the reason the Boxmasters cancelled the tour, but Willie will continue the tour without Billy Bob’s band.

Don’t Canadians have a sense of humor? Unfortunately not. They seem to hate Americans for some reason.
