No, really. NME reports that Miley Cyrus fired the first shot across Radiohead's bow during a Portland radio interview, apparently because the British band snubbed her attempt to meet them at the Grammys. Here's part of her outraged rant, as quoted in the article:
"The reason I'm in this business is to make people happy. I left 'cause I was so upset. I wasn't going to watch. Stinkin' Radiohead! I'm gonna ruin them, I'm going to tell everyone."
Can't make this stuff up, folks. So what's next? Yo Gabba Gabba vs. Nine Inch Nails?
Speaking of the Wailers, was looking online for something else when I stumbled across this clip of The Wailers' "Hang Up" set to footage from some kitschy flick called "The Astro-Zombies." Now I've gotta find "Astro-Zombies." Which means I may have to pay all my late fees over at Stadium Video.
Remember that Sonics concert DVD that's been in the works for the last year and a half or so? Well, Buck Ormsby -- the Sonics' manager when he's not playing bass for his own band, the Fabulous Wailers -- gave me an update the other day when he was up in Seattle recording interviews for the project.
The Wailers/Ventures biz he mentions as the clip fades out is, of course, related to the bands' forthcoming split CD "Two Car Garage" and the CD release party set for April 10 at the Moore in Seattle.
Pop publicity firm Biz 3 just announced tour dates for British hip-hop phenom Lady Sovereign, and they include a May 21 stop at the soon-to-be-re-opened Crocodile Cafe. I'm kind of underwhelmed by her Cure-sampling new single "So Human" (click the YouTube video). But the mash-up of cuts from next month's "Jigsaw" release is pretty tight, and can't wait to see her do the new stuff live. Anyway, great warm-up for Sasquatch. And feel free to listen to Lady Sov, aka Louise Harman, from my last interview with her here.
It's not looking good for pop star Chris Brown, who was charged with felony assault and making criminal threats today. Of course, you can count on TMZ to have all the latest dirt.
Maybe. Not that I've heard anything specific, mind you. Just read Rolling Stone's report on a possible stadium tour with the G N' R 2.0. Their story features this quote from manager Irving Azoff about the reclusive and "misunderstood" Axl Rose:
“Axl has been basically quiet, keeping out of the limelight for almost 15 years. People think they know him but they only really only know what has been said about him by questionable people. He is a good guy and often misunderstood — he is a professional who has worked very hard to build and maintain a high creative standard for Guns n’ Roses, which I support. We have some exciting things in the works this year for Gn’R, I’m looking forward to it.”
