"After some long......hard......thoughts�I've decided it's time for me to let go of my mistress 'American Idol' before she boils my rabbit," said Steven Tyler. "I strayed from my first love, AEROSMITH, and I'm back--but instead of begging on my hands and knees, I got two fists in the air and I'm kicking the door open with my band. The next few years are going to be dedicated to kicking some serious ass--the ultimate in auditory takeover� On Nov 6, we are unleashing our new album, Music from Another Dimension on the Earth, Moon, Mars, and way beyond the stars�'Idol' was over the top fun, and I loved every minute of it�Now it's time to bring Rock Back. ERMAHGERD."

The tour will kick off September 28 when both Zombie and Manson co-headline the first day of the Desert Uprising Festival in Phoenix, Arizona and the U.S. leg will wrap in Dallas on Halloween, October 31.

"Sex" will debut today, Friday, July 13 on Sirius/XM and be available on Tuesday, July 17.

Nicks confirmed the band's comeback plans during an interview on CBS This Morning.

She said: "It's the plan, because that's what we do. I do my thing. And Lindsey [Buckingham] is out doing his thing now."

A panel of judges will consider prosecutors' objections to his release. However, if they decide in his favour, the prosecutors are allowed to challenge the new decision too. Under Czech procedural law this cycle can continue for up to six months.

He insists he was invited backstage and planned to settle his long-standing differences with the outfit he left in 2002 � but instead found himself the victim of a "beatdown" and feared for his life, and wound up stabbed in the leg.

Sheen said: "You know, it's quite fitting, I think, that Slash is getting a star on the very street that Axl Rose will one day be sleeping on."

The band have announced that they will offer a pay-per-view broadcast of their performance at their new two-day music fest at this location.

Investigators on TV show History Detectives have verified it's the genuine article after the person who currently keeps it told how Dylan left it on a plane after the controversial concert.

Rockenfield has detailed a series of events which he says proves they had no option but to oust the frontman, including a series of spitting and punching incidents ahead of a concert in Brazil in April.

He says Tate's statement that the band didn't write songs is untrue � and that claims he taunted his ex-bandmate by saying "I've fired your family and now I'm going to fire you" is "a complete lie."

The shows were the first The Rolling Stones had ever performed in Japan and came at the end of their Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle tour to promote 1989's Steel Wheels.

The tour which also features Cannibal Corpse, Between The Buried and Me, The Faceless, Periphery, Veil of Maya, Goatwhore, Exhumed, Cerebral Bore, is set to kick off next week and Schendzielos is going to miss part of the trek run due to a serious family emergency.

Aftermath of the Lowdown is his first album in 14 years. Lyrically, he tackles the universal tribulations of divorce, substance abuse, single parenthood, independence and self-reliance.

"A lot has happened in my life over the last ten years, personal stuff that's cathartic for me to get out," says Sambora. "Really things that could happen to anybody, but I just happened to be in a band with the biggest concert tour in the world, and in the glare of the public eye."

Now, Slash is speaking out about the honor, and he says it's reflective of how great he feels about his music at this point in his career.

"I definitely feel like I'm cresting a certain wave in my career where I'm having a really great time, I love what I'm doing, I love the people I'm working with and I'm feeling very energized," he told Rolling Stone after the star ceremony. "I haven't had that feeling since when Guns started."

He added that his current solo project, and recent #4 Billboard smash album, Apocalyptic Love, is something of a "Cinderella story."

That evening, Seger performed one of his classics, "Turn The Page," a song that originally appeared on his "Back In '72" album. Although never released as a single, Seger's live version of the tune on his 1976 "Live Bullet" album became a mainstay of rock radio stations, and still gets significant airplay to this day on classic rock stations.

The event's homepage states that the date, which was led by Refused and August Burns Red, has been postponed and they are looking to reschedule but they are offering refunds.

The album was produced by The Black Keys' Patrick Carney and Austin Scaggs, and the first single, "The Way It Is," can be heard here.

It was the first song I sat down to write as the new band was being formed and dates were being scheduled for tracking. "Break Down" started as most songs do - with a guitar riff. I had a riff I liked and when I put down a vocal melody, it had a percussive rhythm to it - a bounce I liked. I didn't have lyrics yet, it was more of a rhythmic scat that really started to grow on me. I wasn't sure where it was going to go after the verse, but I knew I had something I liked.

I remember having this other melody in my head. And when I would sing it back, I kept hearing a group of girls singing it. So, on the demo version I sang the melody in my best "Cherie Currie" voice, knowing that when we'd track it I'd have to find a female voice for the song.

As the song starting to take on its own life, I had a dream - one of those dreams you have where you're trying to run but you move slowly or trying to punch someone but its like your hands won't move.

That idea came to me as a chorus and lyric idea. The song "Break Down" is about trying to get somewhere and sh*t keeps happening. You get stuck, something gets in your way. Or you have to start over again. But you keep on keeping on!

The final touches came in the studio. Producer Tommy Henriksen got Glen Sobel on drums and Calico Cooper to get that aggressive female sound the song needed.

Styx's camp sent over the details and comments: During Styx's set, lucky fans at that final stop of the tour in Bangor, ME last Sunday got what they were hoping for when Ted Nugent joined the band for a special performance of the Damn Yankees classic "Coming Of Age."

Backing up the two on recording are Rick Penzone, Christopher Hatfield and Los Angeles native drumming monster, Jon Safley.

"I think cars and drums are two things I've always been passionate about," Barker divulges. He also discusses his appreciation for classic rides, how his kids have inherited a love for cars, differences between West and East Coast car culture and how a unique paint job reflects the personality of its owner.
