Big Four gig announced
It’s on. The rumors came true, and they start in little ol’ England.
“The Sonisphere Festival rumors have been in high gear and you know how we love our European summer vacations, so we’re here to confirm that we will indeed be at Knebworth House to kick off the weekend on Friday, July 8, 2011!! Hanging with Anthrax, Megadeth, and Slayer last summer was just too much fun, so here we are doing the Big 4 shenanigans again and this will be the first time that we will all be on the same stage in the U.K.” said a statement on Metallica.com

It’s safe to assume more dates will be announced. It’s also safe to assume that I have a boner. Oh, haha, not from this news… I have two monitors and I’m watching mature porn on the second one.
Oh yeah, tickets will be available here. Need I remind you that we’re giving away two Big Four DVDs in our giveaway? You still have time to enter, fool.
Dancing With The [middle-aged rock]Stars
Stop the [word]presses! Zakk Wylde is apparently campaigning to get on ‘Dancing With The Stars.’ Oh say it isn’t so.
“Black Label Society ear-smasher and all-around badass Zakk Wylde is looking for your support. No, Ozzy Osbourne’s former main man isn’t looking to headline Donington or crash the Big Four tour. Instead, the hirsute hellion is angling to be the latest celebrity to brave the perils of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars program. Yes, according to his MySpace page, Zakk just wants to dance.
Fans are encouraged to visit ABC.com to cast their vote for what would surely be the most entertaining hour of television… ever.“

I hope this is either a hoax or Zakk drank more Johnnie Walked Black Label than usual and tried to be funny.
Corey Taylor is uncertain
Corey “keep your mask and shirt on, please!” Taylor says he still had second thoughts about touring with Slipknot. Yeah, and I had second thoughts about eating a kebab. Come on now…
Good thing the ‘fan’ excuse is still popular, though.
“Honestly, I don’t know how to feel about the tour. But it’s for the fans, and for the family. We’ll see. I don’t know WHEN I’ll be ready to make an album. Might not be for years. But we will definitely play shows. We’ll see what happens“ said Corey while piercing his nipple again.
Watch interview after the jump.
When asked if the reason Slipknot wore masks was his being too ginger for metal, Corey had no comment. He just pointed to his jetblack hair dye.
Alice Cooper is being inducted…
Alice Cooper is finally being inducted… INTO HELL.
Just kidding, but he is really gonna be inducted into the world famous ‘Rock And Roll Hall of Fame.’
“Alice Cooper will finally be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame at the 26th annual induction ceremony, which will be held on March 14, 2011 at the Waldorf-Astoria in Manhattan. Also being inducted are Neil Diamond, Tom Waits, Dr. John and Darlene Love.
The inductees into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2011 will be officially announced on December 15 at 10:30 a.m. EST on the RockHall.com web site.“

Say what you will about Alice, but I’ve seen him live and he puts on a great show. I think he deserves it 100%, it’s actually a bit shocking he hasn’t been inducted yet considering he’s been eligible since 1994. Oh well, I’ve been ‘eligible’ for a penis augmentation since January 2009 and they still haven’t called, the world isn’t fair… Especially if you have a girl’s name.
Lemmy knows his food
Lemmy knows a lot of things, but mainly how to play bass and get wasted, right? Wrong… He also knows his food…
“Living in LA makes it so much easier to get food. I can have a full meal with two waiters and a table, brought to my door. Or order pre-cooked bacon strips, shipped to me in a polystyrene container of dry ice from Omaha Steaks. Yet I can’t buy boil-in-a-bag fish with parsley sauce, and there’s no proper Heinz baked beans, they’re in a different sauce. But mainly it’s the cheeses I object to” said Lemmy while chewing on his sandwich.

I didn’t really understand anything of that quote. Maybe you should try some vegetables, Lemmy, I heard carrots are good if you mumble a lot.
