- This ain’t the real cover image — we wouldn’t give that up, yet. But guess who’s on the cover of this year’s Rolling Stone “Hot Issue”? (On stands in New York and L.A. Wednesday; everywhere else by Friday.) Just a little taste of what you’ll find inside: Fergie’s personal language, her explanation for the peeing incident, her first concert and her take on all those haters out there.
- George Michael may tell good Bush jokes but that didn’t get him out of this most recent arrest for possession and something about being unfit to drive.
- Axl Rose continues to pretend Chinese Democracy will one day be released.
- Chris Martin suggests it may be five years before we hear a new Coldplay record. This would suck except that it’s awesome.
- It’s all happening: Nas suggests he’ll tour Africa with Jay-Z, and Snoop says he’ll contribute to Detox, the new Dre record.
- The Black Lips – aka one of the great dark secrets of Atlanta – have just signed to Vice.
- Now your iTunes can tell you when your favorite bands are on tour. Creepy and cool.
- Watch: the Killers on SNL, Sufjan Stevens perform a new song “Majesty Snowbird”. Listen: to the new Hold Steady record, aka, the best album of the year thus far. [via Stereogum and BrooklynVegan]
