R.I.P. - Captain Lou Albano

Words cannot express the loss we are feeling today.

We lost one of the greats today and he will surely be missed.

Whether you knew him through his wrestling career or his many acting gigs, Lou was always just trying to put a smile on your face.

Rest In Peace Cap'n...



2009 is so close to over...it's been a terrible year for major celebrity deaths.

R.I.P. - DJ AM

Never really listened, but his story is a pretty crazy one.

Came across this on the ZubazPants.com forums.

I 'get' the talent...

New Track of the Day - Radiohead Tribute to Harry Patch

Radiohead have released a new track titled, "Harry Patch (In Memory Of)", which is a dedication to the last surviving English veteran of WWI who passed away last week at the age of 111.

Truly a great honor for Harry Patch and a moving tribute to him by Thom Yorke and his band mates.

Radiohead, who are no stranger to digital distribution, released the track HERE where you can purchase it for about $1.50 or something.

Otherwise, you can stream it through the YouTube video below!

It's quite good, so ENJOY!

I Still Miss You MJ

Unbelievable...I'm still sort of devastated by the death of Michael Jackson.

Not in a like a cry-my-eyes-out-nightly way but just, shock and awe.

I read an interview with MJ's close friend, Liza Minelli, who said something along the lines of (don't quote me here)..."When the autopsy/toxicology results are released, all hell is going to break loose. So I am glad we can celebrate Michael now."

Clearly, MJ had issues with pills that should have been addressed. Perhaps they were at some point, but it's hard to tell someone to break an addiction. Especially when that person is the king of pop.

Anyways, CNN just posted this video of MJ doing rehearsals for his final tour. It is from June 23rd...just 2 days before his life would end. So tragic. Almost hard to watch. R.I.P.

R.I.P. Michael Jackson: 1958-2009

A tragedy...I don't even have the words to express my feelings.
Ironically, Chris had just posted some old school Michael Jams on this blog.
Who knew...who knew?

Mourn, but celebrate. Celebrate the music and crazy life of Michael. He will never be forgotten. Legendary.

Don't Upset Bob Saget

Lately there's been a lot of fuss over artists copying or stealing bits from songs that have previously been recorded by another artist.

Most recently, I found this little guy on YTMND which makes the claim (a hilarious one might I add) that Green Day have ripped off...wait for it...the TV theme song of early 90's classic, "Full House"!!

Just before that was Coldplay's "Viva La Vida", which has Joe Satriani and Cat Stevens claiming to have been ripped.

See for yourself, below is the Cat Stevens bit in question (and HERE you can listen to the Coldplay verse):

What do you think? Ripoffs? Enough variation to call it original? Let us know in the comments!
