The New Yoko Ono

~~According to the NY Times, the rest of Fall Out Boy is pissed about their Grammy snub too. But unlike Pete, they're being less rational about it. They're blaming Ashlee Simpson. They say that the Grammy voters hate her and her lip syncing. Obviously, Pete's "50 year old white men' keep up with who's dating who in the music business because Ashlee is tainting Pete and the rest of the band's reputation. Come on guys, we said in another post.. It's not the world. Yeah, it IS a Grammy, but still. Look at all the great bands who never won Grammys. Google it, you'll find plenty.

(FYI: I have a feeling this just a rumor that FOB is pissed at Ashlee... So believe it if you want).

Update: Joe from FOB has stated on his blog that this is complete bullshit. They adore Ashlee ;)

~~Madonna will be immortalized in the US Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in March. For those who don't know, this is an annual ceremony where a handful of artists are deemed worthy. This years batch also includes Leonard Cohen, John Mellencamp, The Dave Clark Five, and The Ventures. How exciting..


~~Ever been front row to a concert and assumed that the artist on stage doesn't know or care what you're doing? Think again As you can see on the video if you click the link, Tori Amos stops midshow to kick two girls out of the audience. Apparently, they were screwing around the whole show, taking a bunch of pictures of themselves, getting up to get drinks every few minutes, etc.


~~Panic! at the Disco's website has been updated yet again. This time with a secret message.. oooo. Scroll down to find the missing letters. 5 seconds of amusement. Also the new single has a name! "Nine in the Afternoon". A casting call is floating around online for the video in Los Angeles.

Oh yes. That's right. Panic! at the Disco guitarist, Ryan Ross, learned some new instruments. Are you as scared as I am? Bright side: the strings are still there! The TBA titled sophmore album is due out March 25th.

We need a calender on here. It also looks like they're updating their main webpage http://www.panicatthedisco.com/ :)


In other news:

~~~Also due in March, the new Ashlee Simpson album! Rejoice! (or not). She's already stealing her boyfriend's friends as well. Travis from Gym Class Heroes (good buddies of Fall Out Boy), is featured on one of the songs. This is the next song she'll be lip syncing.


~~~Mr. Ashlee Simpson is pissed. Fall Out Boy got snubbed for a Grammy nomination.. this is after they played for People Magazine's Grammy Nomination party. Poor Petey. Dude, seriously.. I know it's a major award, but look at who's nominated. Do you think any of those people have anywhere close to the insane and rabid fan base your band has? Come on... Screw Daughtry and his Grammy nominations. On a side note, he maybe joining the Simpsons at home for Christmas.. Awkward..


~~~I hope you saw the White Stripes in concert when you had the chance! According to the Y chromosome of the band, it's up to Meg White whether or not they ever tour again. (If you follow the band, you'll know that they cancelled their tour because of the drummer's health issues) Jack says he doesn't care either way. Both of us had been planning to go to a show in Fargo, ND in October, but it got cancelled :( PLEASE COME BACK OUT ON TOUR!!



And finally...



Is it just me, or does Britney REALLY want that cake...
