Report: Phish add more shows to their tour, and yes, they are coming to Saratoga Springs at SPAC!!!

Trey Anastasio and the original members of the jam band, Phish, has officially reunited. The band has already been playing a few concerts over the U.S. They added some more gigs to their tour. The band is making a stop to SPAC in Saratoga Springs on August 16th of this summer. I think I’m definitely getting inside tickets for this one.

I have seen Phish live once before and wouldn’t mind seeing them again. I also saw Trey Anastasio solo concert before as well, so that makes it two times I’ve seen Trey on stage. The jam band concerts are such a blast! I love going to them.

See if the band is playing around your area here:

Report: Michael Bay denies 2011 release for “Transformers 3”, it’s being released in 2012…

Michael Bay corrected the mistake on the release date that Paramount Pictures made. Paramount announced that “Transformers 3” is being released in 2011, but Michael said it’s being released, 2012. He says he wants to take a year off of directing Transformers films. I can’t blame him! Sounds like he’s getting tired of it already!

“Transformers 2:  Revenge of the Fallen” hits theaters June 24th, and looking forward to seeing that film as well.

WWE RAW SPOILERS: Oh my, did Jericho just hint that Mickey Rourke will be at ‘Mania 25?

Major RAW spoiler regarding the storyline with Mickey Rourke vs. Chris Jericho….scroll below….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well, look like it’s going to be Jericho vs. Roddy Piper/ Ricky Steamboat/ Jimmy Snuka @ ‘Mania 25 w/ Ric Flair possibly in the corner. As Jericho challenged the match at ‘Mania on RAW tonight, he asked Mickey Rourke to attend ‘Mania by sitting at the front row.

My belief, that WWE privately asked Rourke to be at Wrestlemania 25 to attend the event by sitting in the front row to watch the Jericho vs. The Legends match, then Mickey Rourke joins in on the match by costing Jericho to lose it. Rourke to be part of the action at ‘Mania 25?

Who knows. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens.

Report: Another Anna Nicole doc arrested!!!

Look like Howard K. Stern had some extra help to murder Anna Nicole. Yes, supplying another person drugs so they can die over it, is what I call cold blooded murder.

Anna Nicole’s psychologist has been arrested accused of fueling the Playboy legend’s addiction with prescriptions.

TMZ reports:

Great news, justice for Anna Nicole! Hope Anna’s killers rot behind bars.

Report: Sci Fi channel will now be changed to “Sy Fy” which to me is pretty stupid!

The Sci Fi channel will be getting a new name. NBC Universal will be changing the name to “Sy Fy”. The name change will be in effect sometime in July. The Sci Fi channel is a popular science fiction TV channel, that aired shows like Star Trek, The Twilight Zone, Dark Shadows, Battlestar Gallactica, etc. All kinds of sci fi/fantasy films. It’s even the home of WWE’s “ECW” on Wednesday nights.

Thought: Come on, Clint Black, concentrate on your music, don’t worry about becoming a TV star…

As a huge fan of Clint Black’s music in the country genre, I just don’t understand why Clint is trying to turn himself into a TV star. I’ve been watching Donald Trump’s “Celebrity Apprentice” every Sunday night just for laughs, it’s actually pretty entertaining, seeing Tom Green, Dennis Rodman, Andrew Dice Clay, and Clint Black teaming up together.

Clint Black appeared on “Secret Talents of the Stars” as a stand up comedian, which that show only lasted one episode and it got cancelled pretty quickly. Now Clint is a contestant on Trump’s “Celebrity Apprentice” this year.

Clint Black is a talented singer/songwriter that I admire, that I don’t think he needs the mainstream fame that he’s going after. Yeah, I know, Clint Black is not that well known of a country music artist, maybe that’s why he’s using TV as a ploy to promote his music.

He’s doing fine as a music artist. He doesn’t really need the TV fame. The dude is stepping in Ozzy Osbournes shoes, first as a music artist, then turning himself into a TV star.

Next week’s episode of “Celebrity Apprentice” will feature a very heated Dennis Rodman vs. Clint Black feud. Videos of the segment has already leaked youtube.

Report: “MacGyver” movie is moving forward, New Line greenlights classic TV series to the big screen…

It is coming to the big screen, “MacGyver” fans! New Line cinema has just greenlighted, the classic TV series that once starred, Richard Dean Anderson, as the famous fictional character, “MacGyver”. Raffaella De Laurentiis is producer, and her father, Dino De Laurentiis, is executive producing. No director and no script writer has been hired yet for the pic.

There is no talks on whether or not Richard Dean Anderson would reprise his famous character for the big screen version of, “Macguyver” although, he once said he would love to play the character again for the movie version.

I’ve said it once before and will say it again. No Richard Dean Anderson as MacGyver, I will not see it. They need to bring Richard back. If he’s not back, the film will fail in the box office, big time. Who will want to see Will Forte take over the role if Richard isn’t down?

Pinocchio 70th Anniversary DVD/Blu Ray…

I’m probably going to pick this up this week, next time I go to the Wilton Mall again. I’m not into Disney movies that much, but there are very few that I love, and “Pinocchio” is one of them. I think it’s one of my favorite animated Disney films of all times. It tells a great story.

Some other animated Disney films that I like quite a lot are: “Snow White”, “Fantasia”, “The Sword In the Stone”, “The Fox and the Hound”, “Pocahontas”, “Mulan”, “The Toy Story” series, “Wall-E”, and “Lady and the Tramp”. All the other ones are too overrated for me.

I really think, “Pinocchio”, is the best Disney animated film ever made, that’s just my personal opinion.
