N Riot |
sleazeroxx.com reports: AXL ROSE sparked a
riot at a concert after refusing to appear on stage until he had been given
a full roast dinner.
The GUNS N' ROSES singer kept the crowd
at Newcastle's Metro Arena waiting on Thursday night (19JUL06) for over
an hour in the sweltering heat as he tucked in to his meal.
His behavior didn't go down too well with
the thousand strong audience, who started jeering and throwing objects
at the empty stage.[see full story for more]- Click

Wusses |
Blabbermouth reports: METALLICA has made Blender
magazine's list of the "The 25 Biggest Wusses
Ever!" The list, which
was published in the magazine's July 200 issue, "salutes the most awesomely
wimpy musicians of all time." In the short write-up explaining METALLICA's
inclusion on the list, the Blender editors state, "The haircuts were lame
and the anti-Napster crusade lamer, but neither prepared fans for the soppy
bitchfest that was 'Some Kind of Monster': The once-throttling metalheads
dropped $40K a month on a touchy-feely life coach in a Cosby sweater who
played master to METALLICA's puppets. [see full story for more... Missing
from the list are the aging hippies from Blender for giving a royal damn
about Starship selling out two decades ago

Stone..." ]- Click
