QOTSA to perform QOTSA
Queens Of The Stone Age, the band fronted by the giant leprechaun version of Elvis, will perform their first self-titled album in its entirety.
I usually don’t trust gingers but this info seems legit. Apparently fans voted on Facebook or something. I really don’t know. Why don’t you just have a look yourself before you start asking all these questions. I’m not CNN, Jesus.
P.S. = Josh, if you’re reading this, please don’t beat me up 🙁
Gary Moore’s last hours
It’s an unfair life for people who appreciate guitar playing. Dimebag dead. Gary Moore dead. Brad Delson alive.
But whilst I did steal a joke from Chris Rock, I can’t joke about this any further. I loved Gary Moore‘s playing and “Still Got The Blues” is one of my favorite guitar performances ever. I’m glad I got to see him live last summer and I hope his music will live on to be heard by others.

I’m posting an article about QOTSA after this so I’ll have a lot of ginger jokes to make up for this serious post.
R.I.P. Gary Moore.

Someone went all ‘Metallica’ on Lars
Well well well. I’m not gonna mention karma but guess what, Lars just got sued. Was he found downloading on Napster? Close. He allegedly didn’t pay his assistant for a full year.
“A Sausalito man who worked as a personal assistant to Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich has filed a lawsuit claiming years of unpaid overtime. Steven Wiig, 38, is seeking unspecified damages for alleged state and federal labor violations, breach of oral contract and continuing wages, according to the suit in Marin Superior Court. The lawsuit names Ulrich and Team Tours, a Burbank company that issued Wiig’s paychecks, as defendants.“

I wouldn’t be so quick to judge Lars though, how many people sue famous and rich musicians all the time for a quick buck? I judge Lars for St. Anger though and his horrible ‘biscuit tin can’ snare.
Meeeeoooow
See the beauty above? That’s Samantha Slopes and she has filed a police report claiming Slash‘s wife, Perla Hudson, kicked her in the stomach. Apparently cause she was talking to Slash.
Before I go any further, check out more photos of Samantha here. Not safe for work, stomach or erections by the way.
Now… I wasn’t there so I don’t know what to believe. But Samantha looks like a gal who could take care of herself. I wouldn’t have the balls to kick her in the stomach, that’s for sure. Would she really just cry after a kick and end it there? Doubtful. Besides, what was Perla worried about? Unless Slash had a huge bag of flour on him, she had no reason to be jealous.
TMZ has a video of Perla denying the claims, by the way…
