Bloc Party Drummer Seriously Injured, Stars Line Up To Announce Grammy Nominees, Green Day Dusts Off Early Material

bloc party

  • The controversial Bloc Party/Panic! At the Disco tour has hit its first road block BP drummer Matt Tong’s apparently keeled over after the band’s performance in Atlanta due to a collapsed lung. He’s out of commission for at least a few days. The indie/emo kids will have to find something else to battle about in the meantime.
  • Grammy nominee guessing game begins, but those pop/rock stars selected to announce the nominees on December 7th give us some insight into who’s gotten a nod or two. Justin Timberlake, Mary J. Blige, Ludacris, James Blunt and Amy Lee will all apparently be at the press conference.
  • Guess what? The Rolling Stones and Madonna made a shitload of money touring this year. They give awards for that.
  • Green Day’s first two albums, which originally came out on Lookout! Records, are getting re-released on Reprise and will come out December 19th.
  • We’re officially not at all un-psyched about the new Garbage best-of record Absolute Garbage coming out in the spring. Let the mocking begin.

No John Mayer Grammy Nods? Geez, that album is amazing, AND he dated Jessica Simpson. What more do you want, America?!

Due to the toddler-like writing of these blog items, I didn’t understand any of it. Notice to young writers: snarkiness should not replace clarity.

Dan, I completely agree. I didn’t get the Garbage news. Are we supposed to mock RS for liking Garbage? Or is Garbage supposed to be mocked for releasing a greatest hits? Garbage rock! Shirley Manson is more of a rock goddes than so called “Queen of Rock” Courtney Love. Report the news, make your “asides” but don’t use sarcasm. It doesn’t read well most of the time.

I agree with Dan, I’m so totally not un-sick of the double negatives.
