pennywisesing.jpg2008 marks California punk band Pennywise's 20th anniversary together. While many bands that have been around for two decades have been known to lose their relevancy over time, Pennywise is currently just as relevant and as popular as they've ever been.

Earlier this year the band released their ninth studio album, Reason to Believe via free download to any and everyone, a stunt that got less publicity than Radiohead recieved but was every bit as ballsy. The first single off of the album "The Western World," was also the band's most successful single ever. And, for the first time ever, the band is set to release a second single from one of their albums, that song will be "Die For You."

CONCERT REVIEW: Meg and Dia @ The Foundry PDF Print E-mail

Wednesday, 27 August 2008

Joplin, Missouri’s new concert hall The Foundry is labeled as a family friendly venue. That means that smoking and alcohol are forbidden, and coarse language is frowned upon. And in the case of the show that I recently attended, it also means that it’s frequented mostly by junior high kids. It is quite possible though that it was the artists that I decided to see that night that was the primary cause for me being the oldest person in the club. I should have known I suppose. Though I’d never really heard of the night’s headliner Meg & Dia, I soon found out that a good majority of 15 year old girls have.

Monday, 25 August 2008

To help usher in the upcoming 2012 Olympic Games in London, UK musicians Leona Lewis and Jimmy Page performed in front of a packed Chinese arena to close out the 2008 Beijing games this morning.

The two performed a version of Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" with a minor adjustment to the lyrics. The line "I'm gonna give you every inch of my love" was switched to "every bit of my love" as to not offend the Chinese audience who probably couldn't understand what the hell they were saying anyway.
