  • This announcement came in from Nikki Sixx's management company: "Due to unforeseen circumstances, Sixx:AM will be postponing their Spring tour and will most likely hit the road in the Summer of 2008. The votes have been counted and will be instrumental in determining which markets the band visits in the future. Please keep checking www.sixxammusic.com as details will be posted as soon as they are made available."

  • Ace Frehley said he plans to have his new solo album entitled Pain In The Neck ready for a spring release but is still putting the finishing touches on it, including some scheduled six-string contributions from his pal Slash. Though most of the tunes were written in the past several years, Frehley says he also looked to his own past for guidance. ''I've been listening to my first solo album with Kiss, because everybody says that's their favorite record. I was trying to figure out what made it so special, so I'm trying to incorporate a lot of what that record had for this new CD. It has a lot of different aspects and shows different musical sides of me and it's something I'm trying to recapture. I don't know if I can do it but I'm gonna take a shot at it.''

  • The reunited Stone Temple Pilots additional dates. The band's confirmed schedule looks like this:

    • 5/17 - Columbus, OH - Crew Stadium (Rock On The Range)
    • 5/18 - Camden, NJ - Susquehanna Bank Center (WMMR Event)
    • 5/23 - Indianapolis, IN - Indianapolis Motor Speedway
    • 5/31 - Holmdel, NJ - PNC Garden State Amphitheatre (WXRK Event)
    • 6/1 - Mansfield, MA - Tweeter Center (WBCN Event)
    • 6/7 - Kansas City, MO - tba (KQRC Event)
    • 6/12 - Toronto, ON - Downsview Park (Edgefest)

  • Metal Church singer Ronny Munroe has issued the following update: "As you all know we are busy working on the new release. Metal Church is back with a vengeance and we know where you are. In appreciation for our fans old and new over the past two plus decades we have decided to accept artwork for the new cover from those who know us best.....our Congregation! If we accept your artwork and use it we will include your name on the CD. The working title of the new release is This Present Wasteland. So use your imagination. We will desplay some of the artwork we get on the Metal Church myspace page for everyone to see. We know there are many talented fans out there and we would love to see one of you get the cover. You can submit your artwork to This_Present_Wasteland @yahoo.com. This new release is sounding incredable and we are all very excited for you to hear it. Until then good luck and Metal Horns to you."

  • Poison lead singer Bret Michaels will release a solo album titled Rock My World in April and the singer will be touring in support of the album starting this March. Updated information on all projects can be found at both www.Bretmichaels.com and on the singer’s official MySpace page at www.myspace.com/bretmichaelsofpoison.

  • Music has been used in American military prisons and on bases to induce sleep deprivation, "prolong capture shock," disorient detainees during interrogations—and also drown out screams. Based on a leaked interrogation log, news reports, and the accounts of soldiers and detainees, here are some of the songs that guards and interrogators chose. MotherJones.com has compiled the "torture playlist", which includes the following: Deicide "Fuck Your God", Dope "Die Mother Fucker Die", and the Meow Mix commercial. Click here to see the entire list and hear samples of each song.
