Stroke |
blabbermouth.net reports: SOULFLY's official
web site has been updated with the following message:
"Last week, one of our own, Bobby Burns
[SOULFLY bassist] suffered a mild stroke and was immediately hospitalized.
He was ordered to remain under the care of a doctor until he was fully
recovered, and although we are happy to report that he has already been
released from the hospital, we are extremely sad that he will not be able
to play bass on SOULFLY's upcoming U.S. tour (which begins on September
18th in San Diego). No one has been confirmed to fill in on bass for him
yet, but as soon as the announcement is made, it will be posted here. Please
send Bobby your well-wishes and regards at bobbyleeburns@aol.com or at
his MySpace page." [see full story for more]- Click

| Knack
Sue Run DMC |
PR reports: Members of the 80s rock band The
Knack today filed a lawsuit against the members of Run DMC, and Run DMC's
producers, distributors, publishers and record companies, over Run DMC's
use of an unlicensed sample of The Knack 's 1979 platinum hit "My Sharona"
in Run DMC's song, "It's Tricky."
The Knack's Doug Fieger and Berton Averre
filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against Run DMC today in the United
States District Court for the Central District of California. The complaint
alleges that members of Run DMC and their manager, producers, publishers,
and record label unlawfully appropriated portions of "My Sharona," including
the song's signature guitar riff, for use in "It's Tricky," which first
appeared on Run DMC's 1986 Raising Hell album. The suit also names several
companies involved in the distribution of the allegedly infringing albums.
Fieger and Averre wrote "My Sharona" and obtained a copyright registration
for it in 1979. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages and attorneys' fees.

& KFed |
MTV reports: Britney Spears and Kevin Federline
have named their second son Sutton Pierce, according to a source close
to the family. That means the newborn has the same initials as well as
almost the same birthday as his older brother, 1-year-old Sean Preston.
Meanwhile, could there be a connection between the season premiere of "Law
& Order" and Britney? All evidence seems to point to "yes." In the
episode, a rapper named J-Train we're looking at you, K-Fed becomes
a murder suspect after incriminating photos of his wife are published in
the tabloids. [see full story for more]- Click
