Kid Rock ain't no nobody

Kid Rock will be recognized, yo!

Kid Rock will be recognized at the end of the first quarter of Friday’s home opener [Pistons] against Oklahoma City, commemorating his 21 sold-out concerts at the Palace and DTE Energy Music Theatre. The team will unveil his updated arena banner, which has hung from the rafters since January 2009.

The game also will include the debut of a “Born Free” music video integrating Kid’s song with concert clips and Pistons highlights.

To find out what the average attendee of a sold out Kid Rock concert sounds like, read the comments on his blog entry.

You'll see the butcher

Deftones have a new video, the song is called “You’ve Seen The Butcher“, and it’s got a bunch of girls and gallons of blood. Just like my usual sexual intercourse. And it’s just as awesome. Watch it after the jump.

Alice Cooper lost blood

Think ideas are the only thing Alice Cooper lost? Wrong, he lost some blood, too:

The London Express say: “Alice Cooper is aghast after his fake blood was misplaced on route to the UK. As the star flew in from the United States yesterday for his Halloween Night Of Fear shows on Sunday and Monday at the Roundhouse, North London, he discovered that British Airways had lost his bags. He then had to describe the contents of his snakeskin suitcases to bemused airline staff: as well as missing his fake blood and a giant syringe (in parts) that he uses when he “dies” four times on stage, he was also missing his skulls and skeleton limbs.”

…and he’s missing a new gimmick, really.

Suicide Silence know their Facebook

…because they’re using the dirtiest trick in the book to get you to download their new free song (actually, not a song, it’s a remix): It’s free, but you have to go to their Facebook page. It’s there, but you have to “like” something first. You can download it, but you need to add an app first. All your data is God knows where, but you finally have your hands on some crappy remix. Actually, considering how most people click on those things without thinking twice, who knows, this might be Suicide Silence‘s big break. Check out the Facebook page here.

Duff-Man talks

No, not the beer mascot superhero from the Simpsons, the dude that played bass for Guns N’ Roses around the time the Simpsons just started out (a few decades ago), Duff McKagan. He answered a few questions regarding his recent performance with his old buddy Axl and the new Guns N’ Roses. We won’t post it here, because we’ve already wasted quite a few kilobytes on this band, and we’re going green. Read it here.
