    First official pic of the new Eagles

    Hell's still frozen I see...:oyea: All kidding aside, I'm intrigued to hear what they come up with. While I'd personally liked to have seen Felder brought back into the fold(I know, pipe dream), Vince Gill is a helluva guitar player in his own right and I'm looking forward to seeing how he...

    RIP Gregg Allman

    This one hurts as Gregg was a huge influence for me. Melissa was one of those songs that inspired me to learn guitar, I actually learned the lead part way before I learned the rythmn section. 40 years on and I'm still playing Melissa, although now it's acoustically, it's such a beautiful song...

    George Michael Dies At 53

    While I wasn't really into Wham or his solo career, I though his version of Somebody to Love from the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert was simply amazing and always wondered what could've been had he joined Queen. R.I.P Queen & George Michael - Somebody To Love (Freddie Mercury Tribute...

    Tears for Fears

    Songs from the Big Chair was an album that I really loved even though it was a bit of a departure from what I was listening to at the time. Several years back I ran across a CD of the 1999 re-issue of and was pleasantly surprised how well the album has aged.

    Joe Perry collapses onstage tonight

    Yet another not-so-subtle reminder that none of them, or us, are getting any younger. :( Get well soon Joe.

    Mighty rearranger

    I'm partial to All the King's Horses. I first heard it on Sirius Deep tracks and knew I was going to have to learn it. It's in open C tuning the same as Friends by Led Zep.

    Did Robert Plant Turn Down $14 Million for Led Zeppelin Desert Trip Reunion?

    Why am I not surprised that Jimmy went crazy over Robert walking away from that type of payday? And really, should Jimmy even be surprised at this point? Plant (and I'd add JPJ too) has always been one who has looked forward instead of dwelling in the past and I have nothing but respect for...

    MTV going back to "music"

    Sad to think that almost an entire generation has grown up thinking of MTV as more of a reality tv network than a music video network. With the ease of finding exactly what you want ,when you want it on youtube, I wonder if it might be a case of too little too late for a true MTV revival. I wish...

    Crosby, Stills & Nash Are Done

    Ugh, always the drama with Crosby, Stills, Nash and yes, even Young. I love, love their music, and when they are "on" there aren't many groups better so it saddens me to think of the music that "might have been" yet never will be due to all of their issues. Time we have wasted on the way...

    Remaining members of The Doors to reunite

    This. Maybe Densmore and Krieger could fly the Butts Band banner again, that would be cool! Loved the first album, still hate the band name though... I wonder what Jess Roden is doing these days?

    Don Henley ejects fan for shouting Don Felder's name

    Maybe Don should take his own advice: Get over it Get over it All this whinin' and cryin' and pitchin' a fit Get over it, get over it Irony is fun!
