Scott Weiland Announces Release Date for Solo Album
Stone Temple Pilot’s singer Scott Weiland has announced a November 18th release date for his upcoming, second solo album, “Happy”.
Members of the band No Doubt (sans Gwen Steffani) make a guest appearance on the album.
The Smashing Pumpkins will release a new single called G.L.O.W. through the upcoming “guitar Hero” game, Guitar Hero: World Tour”. It’ll be part of a downloadable song pack which will include previous Pumpkins hits. Pumpkins singer Billy Corgan will also appear as a playable avatar in the game! No word yet on when that will be available, or how to get the song if you DON’T have Guitar Hero.
The original artwork for the Rolling Stones “Tongue and Lips” logo has been auctioned off to London’s Victoria and Albert Museum for $92,000. Former art student John Pasche designed the logo back in 1970, and it first appeared on the 1971 Stones album, “Sticky Fingers”. Pasche says he’ll use the money to send his 11-year old son to private school.
Ben Folds Five will reunite for the first time since the band broke up in 2000 in a one-off performance on September 18th. The concert will be taped for the new MySpace series, “Front to Back” in which bands perform one of their albums in its entirety. The band will be performing their last album, The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner.”
The show will be broadcast on MySpace sometime in October.
Sheryl Crowe Inspires New Voters
Sheryl Crow is giving away free music — a tactic she calls the "Tupperware" party approach to inspiring young people to vote.
The Grammy Award-winning singer announced a plan Wednesday to give a digital copy of her album "Detours" to the first 50,000 people who register three friends to vote.
Crow's giveaway is a kickoff to Rock the Vote's voter registration drive. She is also offering a free download of her politically charged song "Gasoline" to anyone who logs onto the Rock the Vote Web site or anyone on the group's mailing list.
Crow, 46, was one of the founding artists of Rock the Vote 18 years ago. She said the "Detours" album fits perfectly into the group's cause since the lyrics touch on topics such as adoption, breast cancer, the war in Iraq, the environment and Hurricane Katrina.
"It's about the issues that everyone's talking about, but there's a lot of hope," Crow said.
She also said, "Our music (now) is not representing the times — at least not socially and politically. Or maybe we're just distracted."
Rock the Vote aims to register 2 million young people to vote by November — the largest youth voter drive in history by three times.
Anyone who recruits three people to vote will have to log onto the Rock the Vote Web site and go through a verification process before receiving Crow's album.
Wilco Plans Spring Release of Studio Album
Wilco hopes to have its seventh studio album out by spring 2009, frontman Jeff Tweedy told a N.Y. radio station recently.
Tweedy said he expects that Wilco will "allow ourselves a little bit more leeway in terms of sculpting the sound in the studio and doing overdubs and using the studio as another instrument. Last time around, it was more of a document."
At recent live shows, Wilco has played two new songs: "One Wing" and "Sunny Feeling".
Tweedy had said that a number of unfinished songs from their last album, "Sky Blue Sky," would potentially form the basis for the next album, but it is unknown if they remain in consideration at this point.
Wilco wraps a summer North American tour this weekend at San Francisco's inaugural Outside Lands Festival, and will be opening for Neil Young on the latter half of his upcoming tour which kicks off in October.
