| Silverstein
Headline |
Victory reports: Silverstein, Hawthorne Heights,
Bayside and Aiden played the final show of the “Never Sleep Again Tour”
to a sold out, screaming crowd at House of Blues last Sunday, then the
band headed north to Burlington, Ontario for some R&R. No sooner had
they arrived home that they reached a major milestone, breaking 100,000
albums sold in the US, according to Soundscan, landing them at #22 on the
Billboard Independent Chart. The band is also announcing a series of headlining
tour dates before they join Take Action Tour, followed by Taste of Chaos.
Choosing their friends and label mates Spitalfield, theAudition and Stretch
Armstrong as support acts, this mini-tour covers markets in the mid-west
and east coast. Those who have not witnessed the incendiary effect that
Silverstein has on their fans during shows should not miss the change to
do so, while they are still playing clubs! [see full story for dates]-

| Stern
Leaves FM |
Day in Rock reports: A big shout out to Howard
Stern today (and not just because he linked us yesterday). If you haven't
been living under a rock you know that today marks the final day that the
King of All Media will be on the regular (e.g. regulated) airwaves. So
if you read this soon enough, be sure to tune in and see how many fines
he can collect on his final day! You'll soon be able to get all the Stern
you can handle on Sirius Satellite Radio. He begins broadcasting on January
9. (But the Howard 100 channel is already up and running.) In all seriousness,
congrats to Howard and much success on the big move which is sure to include
a lot more lesbians. Whether you like him or not, Stern changed the face
of radio and will likely take satellite radio to the next level. Check
out the full story link for Howard's site and to learn more about what
to expect from the uncensored Stern. - Click
