Moby Gets Kicked Out of His Own Band



Moby starts an old school punk band with teenage craigslist recruits...and then gets kicked out of his own band. I guess the fact that I've listened to the bands he cites means that I'm getting old. Whether you love Moby or hate Moby, I think this video is pretty entertaining ... and telling.

Guns N' Roses "Chinese Democracy" has a release date!

Maybe Axl should consider bringing back the biker shorts.

After 15 years and a reported $13 million in production costs, Billboard announced that Guns N' Roses "Chinese Democracy" will be released before the end of the year, on Nov. 23. Click here to see the billboard article.

So I guess everyone really will get a Dr. Pepper! That's if the album actually does see the light of day.

MTV Europe Gets Rickrolled



Rickrolling has entered a new stratosphere: the MTV Europe Music Awards!

Rick Astley has been nominated alongside Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Green Day, Tokio Hotel, and U2 in the "best act ever" award category. Ooh... Ahh... Behold, the power of the democratic, web 2.0 internet.

MTV Europe currently has a debate page about Astley's place in the "best act ever" category. According to the poll on the MTV Europe site, 99.98% of the votes say that Astley deserves to be nominated for the category.

Personally, I find the moniker "best act EVER" a bit ridiculous, especially in light of the majority of the acts that are nominated. I am all for rickrolling this event and will do so with the giddiness of a little school girl.

To take part in the rickrolling, click here and vote for Rick Astley under the "best act ever" category. Help ensure Rickrolling's proper space in the annals of pop-culture infamy!
