Benjamin Cass has re-worked the Awesome Guy Blogger badge. I made the first version of the badge to award to guy bloggers who need to be recognized for being awesome.

Benjamin Cass said that the badge could use a little somethin’ somethin’…..and that’s what he gave it! I commented that if he made a new and improved Awesome Guy Blogger badge, I’d link to him from here and my personal site.

So, to recap, we went from this:

To this:

What a great job! If you need to hire him for services, feel free to give him a shout!

Linky linky linky!

Check out this rockin’ video, “Tonight in Flames” by Cradle of Filth.

If you didn’t already know, I’m a huge CoF fan. Dani and company bring it with this song! They just plain rock! Enjoy

Check out Justin and Alan’s Myspace page if you want to hear the influence that Lily Allen produces.

The song has a cool beat, but the vocals are killin’ me.

Enjoy!

Check out this video by Predator, titled “Osirus”:

The song starts off slow, but gains some speed in the middle. It’s a good track for all of us death metallers out there, but I couldn’t understand a word of it. Maybe that’s the point.

I still sing along with Slayer and Megadeth, so maybe publishing some lyrics will give people a feel of what the music is about. Until then, we’ll just bang our heads.

Check out this nifty video clip from Autumn’s Grey Solace, titled “Still”:

Erin Welton has an enchanting vocal talent. This song is great in all of its ethereal goodness. This is a mellow track and has a calming vibe to it.

Check out their website here or their Myspace page.

Britney celebrates Paris’ release by showing herself, again.

Fifty and Fergie, holding hands….awwww

Does anyone still care about Foxy Brown? ummm…didn’t think so.

Maybe Clive Davis was right and Kelly Clarkson should’ve taken the money to scrap some songs from My December?

The BET awards have everything, so you don’t need to buy them anything for Christmas.

Here we have Amy Winehouse’s new song and video, “Tears Dry on Their Own”:

Good lord, who told this chick she could sing?

Per Starpulse, I’ve found that Rihanna once attacked her brother with a glass bottle:

She tells Complex magazine, “We talk all the time now, but we used to fight – and when I say fight, I don’t mean arguments; I mean physically fight. I hit the older one (brother) in the face with a glass bottle… My mom was pretty upset.”

This isn’t really news unless the attack was made using an umbrella, ala Britney Spears.

And for your viewing pleasure:

Slayer and Marilyn Manson are going to be touring together, starting July 25th. Can Marilyn Manson hang with the likes of Kerry King and company? We soon shall see.

Since both of these acts are way different and in their own class of goth/rock versus speed metal. Slayer will be taking the stage first, followed by Manson.

Here, Kerry King talks about the tour and the likely event that Slayer fans will be exiting stage left when Marilyn Manson comes out with a goofy song:

“It’s definitely going to be weird,” he admitted. “My whole thing is, it depends on what Manson plays, whether our kids stay or not. If he comes out and plays ‘Tainted Love,’ half the place is going to leave. No offense to Manson — I’m just saying what’s up. I want him to come out and kick ass, because I’m an old-school fan. He can succeed on this tour, if he chooses the right set.”

I figure the Manson crowd is a little goth rock and metal combined, but Slayer has some hardcore fans. How can they mosh? We will soon find out.

Per Def Leppard.com:

Since all episodes of Jimmy Kimmel Live taking place from June 22 to June 25 have been cancelled, we are sorry to report that this Friday’s show, where Def Leppard was supposed to perform, will not take place. Unfortunately we do not have any further details, but the show’s production company ensured us that thet are working on rescheduling the band for a future episode.

Well that just sucks. I was looking forward to seeing them on the show. Hopefully they will reschedule my favorite 80’s band for another show.

Until then, enjoy this vid:

If you haven’t seen these badges floating around yet, then what are you waiting for?!? Go grab ‘em!

For the Rockin’ Girl Blogger badge, just nominate a girl blogger that you think rocks!

And, for the guys out there, I’ve hatched the Awesome Guy Blogger badge:

Tag someone today!
Let’s see where it goes!

Just like a chick to pick some goofy crap like this. She chose “You & I” by Celine Dion as her campaign song. Dumb. Dumb! Dumb!!!!

If she really wanted to take a stance, she should’ve chose “We’re not gonna take it” by Twisted Sister. Hello, McFly?!??!

“We’re right, we’re free,
We’ll fight, you’ll see
We’re not gonna take it”

Ron Paul, if you’re out there, please don’t pick a stupid campaign song. Dee Snider and I beg of you.

Vote for me….haul your tookus over to the Bloggers Choice Awards and vote, vote, vote!!

Motley Crue have initiated legal action against one of their managers, Carl Stubner, yesterday. They are claiming that he made business decisions with his own best interests in mind and gave Tommy Lee bad advice:

Not only did Lee’s participation in the reality shows Tommy Lee Goes to College on NBC and Rock Star: Supernova on CBS get in the way of Mötley Crüe’s 2005 Red, White & Crue tour and plans to record a new studio album, costing the band’s annual revenue to fall to only $19 million in 2006, but the NBC series’ “inane overtones” made Lee look “incoherent, lazy and incompetent,” alleges the lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.

They are also claiming that the show Rock Star has made Tommy Lee look like less of a rock star. Like mooning the crowd at every show wouldn’t do that, eh?

Ding, ding, ding. And in this corner, we have Britney Spears, represented by Lynda Goldman…..and in this corner, we have that DJ guy from Florida.

These are the pictures:

This is just too freakin’ funny. So ClearChannel puts up these billboards with a deranged looking Britney? So what? She shaved her own head and she looked stupid all on her own.
