one after 399


Super Bowl Sunday. Hope your team does well. I want Seattle but if I were a betting man I would go with Pitt. If your team isn't doing that well relax zen-like with sand falling flash fun. Honestly I could do this for hours.

Sex Pistols reunion? Why? The money stupid.

Stipe gets others together for Charity EP. Everybodys covering Joseph Arthur's "In the Sun". A doc to follow naturally.

File Under WTF? and Please No. U2 thinking about hip hop.

SMASHING PUMPKINS are rumored to be a primary target for a headliner at this year's Lollapalooza festival, which will return to Hutchinson Field at Chicago's Grant Park, with dates tenatively set for Aug. 4-6, according to Billboard.com. Also rumors about that the Kinks are thinking about getting back together too.

BBC reports:
Arctic Monkeys sell more than 360,000 copies of their album, making it the fastest-selling debut in UK chart history. Again this is good not this good. It will probably make my top 50 of 2006 but still like Franz and Bloc Party a bit better. JOMHO--just one man's humble opionion.

AP reports:
Rolling Rock beer is ending its Rolling Rock Town Fair, a one-day music festival that drew large rock acts to western Pennsylvania since 2000. Instead, the brewer is teaming up with Little Steven Van Zandt for a series of shows nationwide to be called "Garage Rock."

Noble PR reports:
On 22nd May 2004, Morrissey returned to his hometown of Manchester to play a very special comeback show. Celebrating his 45th birthday with 20,000 well-wishers from the city, which has provided years of lyrical inspiration; "Who Put The "M" In Manchester?" Morrissey of course! The live in concert UMD entitled "Who Put The "M" In Manchester?" will be released by Sanctuary Visual Entertainment on 27th March 2006.

Reuters reports:
Four women rockers who took on the music of Led Zeppelin are driving club audiences to a frenzy and, offstage, whipping up speculation over their sexual tastes with the name of the band: Lez Zeppelin.
They're among a small but growing number of all-female tribute bands Spin Magazine recently referred to as "Chicks with Picks," and include the playfully dubbed AC/DShe, Cheap Chick and The Ramonas. I guess this story could just be my update on the Lesbian theme that Cat started.

More later

I know this is geeky but anytime I see, use or read uncanny I think X Men.
