Halestorm collaborating with Weezer?
Weezer’s Rivers Cuomo Working With Halestorm On New Album: I love Halestorm. Personally, I think they’re one of the best rock bands to come along in decades and Lzzy Hale is the best female talent since Joan Jett. Having said that I’m not surprised that Rivers Cuomo of Weezer is helping Halestorm with their next…

Review of Green Lantern
Yesterday I caught Green Lantern at the theater and I liked it. Then again I’m biased as GL is one of my favorite superheroes. I felt like this is the movie that Superman Returns should have been as in an epic battle with a powerful evil foe and not what was basically a chick flick.…

Ripper to front Dio Disciples
Previously I posted about how that Tim ‘Ripper’ Owens was going to record previously unrecorded material from the late metal god Ronnie James Dio. And I basically had a metalgasm when that was announced. Now I’ve had another one on the news that Ripper will be fronting a band along with Rudy Sarzo, Simon Wright,…

Check out what Hollywood gave out at this year’s awards… * $200,000: An orbital space flight on Virgin Galactic. * $16,000: Four-night stay at the Huvafen Fushi luxury…
