Jimmy Page needs to announce his new band soon, so he can kill the Led Zeppelin reunion rumors for good!!!

Leave a comment

Jimmy Page still hasn’t announced his new band yet with a new singer. I feel he will sometime this year. The Led Zeppelin reunion tour rumours still don’t want to quit in the media. The rumours are giving Pagey and Plant a headache. Once Jimmy announces the new band, that will for sure, squash the Led Zep rumours for good.

Who ever the new singer is, I don’t think it will be Myles Kennedy from Alter Bridge. I’m sure the new singer will be a surprise and will shock the world, you never know who’s it going to be. It can be a completely unknown singer, somebody we’ve never heard of before or it could be a big name. Jimmy Page is always unpredictable. You just never know what that guy is going to do next. Don’t be surprised if the new singer could be Chris Robinson from the Black Crowes ’cause it could be a possibility as well.

As much as I love Led Zeppelin, fuck the reunion and fuck the Led Zep tour. If you were a true Led Zeppelin fanatic like myself, you would let the band go out on a positive note which was the Ahmet Ertegun O2 show. I actually agree with Robert Plant not rejoining them full time. Like I said in a post before, he’s too old for the rock n’ roll thing which is the whole fuckin’ point of tuning down keys in certain songs ’cause he couldn’t hit the high notes anymore.

He’s great with the country and bluegrass thing with Alison. Let him do that and let him move on. Led Zeppelin went out on a negative note with John Bonham dying and they wanted to come back to the O2 to play one last final show and go out in a good way. Leave it at that. Led Zeppelin continues their tour with Plant, they could fuck up their legacy by Plant not being able to sing anymore, so I’m all for Led Zeppelin not getting back together.

I want the guys moving on to new things, moving forward, not backwards. That’s what its all about. I’m looking forward to seeing what Pagey has in store for us with his new band and I know it’ll be really great. Pagey never dissapoints no matter what project outside of Zeppelin he does. Come on Jimmy!! Announce the new band soon ’cause the Led Zep reunion rumours are giving me a headache!!!

BREAKING NEWS: The Grateful Dead confirm reunion tour, and will make a stop in Albany, N.Y.!!!!!!! :-)

12 Comments

Led Zeppelin refuses to give us a reunion tour, but the Grateful Dead is willing to give the dead heads one!!! After performing a few concerts for the Barack Obama rallies during the election, the Grateful Dead confirm the rumours and speculation that there will be a Grateful Dead tour in 2009. The tour begins in April in North Carolina and the Dead will make a stop at the Times Union Center in Albany, N.Y. on April 17th.

I’m sure more dates will be booked for the summer and expect the band to book a concert at SPAC in Saratoga Springs also.

The current band line up is Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Bill Kreutzman, and Mickey Hart…plus a few new members, keyboardist Jeff Chimenti and Warren Haynes from Allman Bros./Gov’t Mule will front the band replacing Jerry Garcia.

See the rest of the tour listings at this article here:

Sweet! As a dead head, I would love to see the Dead in Albany when they come. I know I said I gave up national concerts, but going to the Dead show in Albany would be worth going to, in my opinion. I believe this is the band’s first concert in Albany since when they played here for their “Dozin’ at the Knick” recording back in 1990 when Jerry was alive.

Report: HoundsTV names Ac/Dc the best autograph signers while Led Zeppelin were named the worst…

Leave a comment

Some bands are great with their fans, love meeting them and love signing autographs for them. Some bands don’t even care for their own fans at all, they are just in the music for either money or for their own ego. HoundsTV which is a website mostly about famous celebrities and musicians signing autographs for fans, compiled a best and worst of music “autograph signers” of 2008 in Toronto, Canada.

Best signers: 1) Ac/Dc 2) Coldplay 3) Randy Bachman/Burt Cummings (the Guess Who) 4)  Shania Twain 5) The Jonas Brothers

Worst signers: 1) Jimmy Page and Robert Plant 2) Bon Jovi 3) The Eagles 4) Madonna 5) Eddie Vedder.

See the list and read their thoughts here:

I agree about Pagey and Plant being the worst signers and not great with their own fans. They don’t do meet and greets hardily at all. Not just in Canada, everywhere they go. You can easily tell that Pagey and Plant could care less about their die hard fans since they vow to never do a reunion tour for us.

Report: Springsteen’s “Working on a Dream” is NOT Wal-Mart exclusive, just the Greatest Hits album!

Leave a comment

Now, before saying that Springsteen’s new album “Working On a Dream” is going to be Wal-Mart exclusive, read the articles carefully like I did. Springsteen’s new album is still being released everywhere in stores on Jan. 27th.

Springsteen’s new Greatest Hits album is “Wal Mart” exclusive, not the new album. The F.Y.E. deal is just Springsteen giving away free cards and posters to people who pre-order the new album “Working on a Dream”.

“Working on a Dream” the new album is still being released everywhere in stores Jan. 27th. Springsteen will never release his original studio albums through Wal-Mart exclusive, he ain’t that dumb.

Report: Amy Winehouse going topless for the paps…

Amy Winehouse, the troubled pop star decides to go on vacation and she decides to go topless in public, even though public nudity is illegal.

See her here:

And here:

Those pics are definitely really hers, they are no fakes and no photoshop tricks. She has the same tattoos of a woman on both sides of her shoulders, that’s how you can tell they are real.

She’s a little fat, but hey, I don’t mind fat or overweight women. I enjoy ’em as a matter of fact. She is beautiful though. I find her boobs really hot!!! With the way she is addicted to drugs now, I’m sure her body is ugly on the inside but she is definitely beautiful and has an amazing body on the outside though!!! Woah!!!

Watch out, Amy!!! Be prepared for a call by Hugh Hefner begging you for a Playboy pictorial!!!

Report: I call Michael Jackson needing a lung transplant made up bullshit…

Leave a comment

Jacko’s biographer claims that the King of Pop is sick and needs a lung transplant. Expect Jacko himself to speak out soon shooting down the rumours saying it’s not true. Becareful Mr. Halperin, you could get a nice big libel and slander lawsuit. With Jacko being broke and he’s not rich anymore, this will be a perfect time for him to score some extra bucks.

Report: The RIAA finally backs down on suing people for pirating music!!!

Leave a comment

After 5 years of suing thousands of people for illegally sharing and downloading music from the internet, the RIAA has finally backed down. The RIAA will instead work with the ISP’s, to contact and identify users who continue to trade copyrighted music. The RIAA grew a change of heart and dropped all new lawsuits after working with Andrew Cuomo, New York’s attorney general.

Rollingstone reports:

http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2008/12/19/riaas-gaze-turns-from-users-to-isps-in-piracy-fight/

While this is great news, I still don’t trust these assholes. Once the economy improves, they’ll be on a suing frenzy again. They should have thought about the ISP thing 5 years ago.

Cool Video: Metallica “Guitar Hero” video game trailer…

2 Comments

Metallica just released the “Guitar Hero” video game trailer already, and this confirms that “Master of Puppets” will be included in the game.

Enjoy the trailer, I had a smile on my face while watching it, as this game is going to be cool. Can’t wait to get it!!!

Expect the Metallica haters to complain that the songs on the game sound better than the original albums, but fuck ’em, right? That’s the whole point of the video game is making the music sound better.

Confirmed: U2 announce they will release new album titled, “No Line On the Horizon” on March 2nd, 2009…

Leave a comment

The legendary Irish rockers, U2, has announced the band will release their 12th studio album titled, “No Line on the Horizon” on March 2nd, 2009. The album is produced by Brian Eno and Danny Lanois. It was recorded in various studios all over the world. Previously, Rick Rubin was the producer for the album, but the band fired him and ditched his recorded tracks due to creative differences.

The band didn’t give anymore details on the new album. No tracklisting, no insight on the sound and no description of the style of music of the new album. I’m sure the band will give us all that in the near future.

From U2’s official website:

http://www.u2.com/news/index.php?mode=full&news_id=2279

I hope this will be a good album, so I’ll be looking forward to listening to it. I didn’t like “How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb” at all. I did love the album released before that, “All That You Can’t Leave Behind” though. “Leave Behind” is a fuckin’ incredible album, one of the best new albums they’ve ever done. I hope “On the Horizon” album will fuckin’ rock and not be a mellow record.
