REMINDER: Robin Williams to guest star on “Law and Order: SVU” this Tuesday…

Not only Grand Theft Auto IV hits stores that day, the “Law and Order: SVU” episode that guest stars Robin Williams will air on NBC this Tuesday at 10:00 p.m.

I don’t know if I’m gonna be watching that or not, I may just record it because I have feeling I’ll be addicted to GTA IV and will probably be playing that game all evening and night.

Robin Williams being on that show will indeed score high ratings for “Law and Order: SVU”. It’s his first TV appearance in many years and it will be people’s one time opportunity to see Robin Williams on TV for free instead of paying to see him on the big screen.

It shall be a good episode and of course he will deliver an incredible performance because Robin can play any role that throws at him no matter what it is.

Looking forward to seeing it.

REMINDER: 6 Days away for Grand Theft Auto IV…

Aight, kids. It’s just 6 days away for some ass kicking, car stealing, wreckless driving, gun shooting, resisting arrests, getting laid with hookers and strippers, and hunting down the drug dealers, and the mob. Grand Theft Auto IV is released this Tuesday, only 6 days left.

This could be the biggest selling game in history and could create a lot of controversy in the media. There is even an article in Variety where it could bully the media. Meaning this game could sell out hollywood movies and music sales too. That’s how big this game is gonna be.

I hope it’ll be easy for me to grab a copy ’cause I have a feeling the game will be sold out quick everywhere. I’ll try to get it as early as I can on Tuesday. I really can’t wait. Grand Theft Auto IV is the main reason I bought a Playstation3, of course I’ll play other games on it too, but Grand Theft Auto IV is my holy grail for it. Be ready for this game. It will be intense and it will probably be the best GTA game ever made.

Cool Video: Hillrod vs. the Barack…

From last night’s RAW, this was so boring and stupid, I’m glad Umaga came and saved the day. The audience wasn’t liking this either as you can see. I was surprised the audience cheered for Umaga.

The Bill Clinton impersonator was the only good thing about this match, fake Bill was hilarious.

Question about Barack Obama, is he Samoan? Is that why he is so much like the Rock and why Umaga came after him?

Thought: Scarlett Johansson could be the first successful actor turned singer…

Lets see, the Bacon Brothers failed in music. Steven Segal failed in music. Billy Bob Thornton failed in music. The same goes for Russell Crowe and Bruce Willis who are also musicians. Has there ever been a successful hollywood actor turned musician in the music industry? I don’t think there ever was.

Scarlett’s upcoming album “Anywhere I Lay My Head” has been getting a lot of buzz lately. She sings Tom Waits songs on it. And you can betcha there’s going to be plenty of die hard Tom Waits fans out there that will be curious to hear her album. Her fans of her films will also buy it definitely and David Bowie fans also. So the album will definitely sell well.

I listened to that “Falling Down” track like over 10 times yesterday and couldn’t get over how great it was, the song sent chills down my spine. Scarlett does sing for real as she did a singing segment in her film “Lost in Translation” during the karoake scenes. I never really get all that excited for upcoming music albums, but I’m looking forward to picking this one up. I’m itching to hear more songs off that album now.

Report: William Regal crowned as King of the Ring…

After a long hiatus, the King of the Ring is back. And a new King has been crowned on last night’s RAW three hour special. William Regal, the current RAW general manager is now King of the WWE.

I assume that the WWE canned “King of the Ring” because of low buy rates of the ppvs.

Read the full story here:

Last night’s RAW was pretty good, William Regal wrestled well and he was actually entertaining in the ring. What does this mean now?

Does this mean no RAW GM for Regal? Will there be a replacement?

If there is going to be a RAW GM replacement since Regal maybe wrestling full time, I would say bring Eric Bischoff back. I miss that guy.

Report: Stone Temple Pilots plans to go back in studio after tour…

Stone Temple Pilots spoke with Billboard that they want to head back into the studio to record a new 6th Stone Temple Pilots album after their summer tour later this year. They also plan to release a DVD of that Houdini Estate show in Los Angeles where they had their reunion debut.

Billboard reports:

Sweet news. Hopefully the new STP record will be tight and heavy. Old school grungy STP.

Ac/Dc, STP, Metallica, and Guns N’ Roses coming out with albums this year.

We may get a rock revolution after all!

Report: Smashing Pumpkins “Zeit Geist” to be their final album?

Jimmy Chamberlin wrote on the Pumpkins official blog that the band will not record another album on CD. But he claims that the band will never break up and always will be making music, just not on CD’s you buy at the record stores. Sounds to me the band will release songs in mp3’s similar to what Nine Inch Nails and Radiohead has done.

From the Pumpkins blog:

Don’t worry, Billy and Jimmy will release another Pumpkins CD down the road again although they claim they won’t.

I used to worry that the “Friday” remake is going to suck so bad, but the cast is looking awesome so far, I am now interested in seeing the film!

Thought: Myspace clarification…

Btw, I have nothing against the “friends” personal profile part of myspace, I have nothing against that part to be honest because that’s what myspace was once was before a “friends” place to hang out. Now myspace has turned into a music site. What I am against in myspace is the music part of it. That is what’s bothering me about myspace, the music bands/artists section. I lost my respect in interacting with some of the other musicians in myspace. Some of them promised to get me on some shows of theirs, but of course they never happen and I explain more reasons, I’m just trying to keep a long story short.

It’s not an opinion and should be no surprise to you that the internet has officially taken over the music industry. People has been using the net for music, instead of buying CD’s at the stores these days. It’s getting very rare that you ever see people buying CD’s much anymore because of the online world. Itunes, myspace, etc. Buying albums from the record stores is pretty much dead. People with Ipods and mp3 players and shit like that. It’s why you constantly see crappy music high in the Billboard charts.

With my own music, I plan on doing something different. I want to find some type of html mp3 player to embed into this blog where I can play my songs while you are reading this blog. If I can find something like that, I’ll put up a jukebox player up here on the blog. I plan on turning my blog into my official website. Maybe have a new domain name that’s much cheaper. That is my plan. It is another reason why I got rid of my old official website because I plan on turning this wordpress blog into a new one. That way it can be a music website and a regular blog both at the same time. I’m gonna look into doing that. Soon if I can ever learn how to do that and I’m researching it.

Since my blog gets a lot of hits everyday (at least 1,000 hits a day), I figure uploading my songs here into a player would be a cool thing.

NEW: Hear the first single off Scarlett Johansson’s new album “Anywhere I Lay My Head” featuring David Bowie NOW!!!!

You can hear the first radio single “Falling Down” that David Bowie duets with Scarlett Johansson for her debut album “Anywhere I Lay My Head” exclusively at AOL…

Listen to “Falling Down” here:

http://us.video.aol.com/player/launcher?ar=us_en_audio_748x541_full&pmmsid=2110228

It’s a fantastic song. I absolutely love it and I’m looking forward to the album. It does have a Tom Waits vibe with Bjork mixed into it. I liked Scarlett’s vocals and the song is unique.

“Anywhere I Lay My Head” hits stores May 20th.

Enjoy. 🙂
