Report: Jimmy Page interview at Rollingstone.com…

Rollingstone.com has a nice interview with Jimmy Page. My hero and inspiration in guitar playing who made me want to play music to begin with. As usual, Rollingstone asks musicians stupid questions to the musicians. While Rollingstone is a music magazine it is not aimed at musicians (like Guitar World, Guitar Player, etc.) Rollingstone is a music magazine aimed to the non-musicians, the regular music listeners.

Page give out the secrets where the energy and the tight playing in Led Zeppelin, he also explains how he inspired to bow an electric guitar.

That’s where all the tight and energetic playing comes from in my music, it’s because I listen to too much Led Zeppelin. While I listen to a lot of music out there, Led Zeppelin is everything to me.

The Rumour Mill: Kurt Cobain’s ashes stolen from Courtney’s home…

Sources are saying that Kurt Cobain’s cremated remains were stolen from Courtney Love’s home after burglars broke into her home, also stealing jewelry and clothes. Courtney is going crazy and suicidal since.

News of the Wold reports:

I’m having a hard time buying this. The “News of the World” is a tabloid newspaper in the UK so don’t believe everything you read there.

If it’s true, it’s Courtney’s fault they were stolen, it’s her responsibility to keep them locked up and safe where the burglars won’t be able to get a hold of them.

Whose Side Are You On: Radiohead vs. Prince…

*sigh*

Prince is on another war against youtube again! This is nothing new isn’t it? Videos of Prince covering Radiohead’s hit song of “Creep” at this year’s Coachella is being removed from youtube by the request of the Purple One himself. *ahem* HELLO, PRINCE! YOU DID NOT WRITE THE SONG!!!!

Radiohead’s Thom Yorke is calling out on Prince trying to remind him that “Creep” is Radiohead’s song, not Prince’s. And Thom Yorke is exactly right, Radiohead wrote the song “Creep”, they own the copyright. So if Radiohead wants the Prince version up on youtube, it should stay up.

More on it here:

I’m siding with Radiohead all the way. I used to respect Prince but now I fuckin’ can’t stand the guy anymore. Prince is an egomaniac and a control freak. The dude only cares about himself and the money and fame he makes with the music. He could care less about his fans or Radiohead fans.

Radiohead owns the copyright to “Creep”. When performing live shows, famous and unsigned artists have the right to cover any song they please, but if they release a cover song on an album or video, bands would of course need the original artist permission.

Prince is a fucking hypocrite for whining about his fans using his work without his copyright permission when he should look at Radiohead’s work with youtube. Fuck Prince and his music.

I give the former Prince fans credit for making Prince Fans United and fighting back at this asshole. Kudos to Thom for speaking out about this! Boycott Prince’s music career already!

BREAKING NEWS: MOLE FOUND ON R. KELLY’S BACK!!!!!!!!!!!

For the past few weeks in the R. Kelly child pornography trial, R. Kelly and his attorneys has maintained that there is no mole on R. Kelly’s back in the video and the naked black man having sex with an underage girl on the videotape is not him. Yesterday on Thursday a video forensics expert named Grant Fredericks was brought in to get more deeper into the video. Fredericks successfully found the mole on the back of the man in the video in the same spot that was described where the mole was.

Kelly’s attorney Ed Genson continue to cover up and claim that the mole in the video is at a different spot and could be a technical imperfection. Kelly’s attorneys continue to maintain it is not R. Kelly in the video.

The Associated Press reports:

R. Kelly will soon be singing “I Believe I Can Fly” in prison. They honestly think they can get away with this one.

*waits for R. Kelly fans to come to this blog to defend him*

Report: Steven Tyler finally speaks out about checking into rehab, confirms new Aerosmith album and tour! GREAT NEWS!!!! :)

Aerosmith fans! We can now sigh with relief! Because the good news is, that Steven Tyler turning himself into rehab had nothing to do with dangerous and illegal drugs. He’s having surgeries on his feet, he corrected to the media that he’s in rehabilitative care, it had nothing to do with drug addiction! He did it for a safe environment to get away from everything to get his feet back in shape. He also broke the big news that Aerosmith will go back into the studio to record new studio album and tour to follow.
