Actually, Mystikal isn’t out of prison…the statement issued was incorrect. Mystikal HAS finished his concurrent sentence for tax evasion but is still finishing his sentence for sexual harrassment.

Maybe, Elizabeth, you need someone to check your facts for you…I’ll gladly volunteer, as I know where the Gossip is from and would like a way out of my office job…hook it up!

ZZ Top and Rod Stewart are my two most favorite jazz musicians! The Top’s version of “Stella By Starlight” will never be topped (pun intended!), and when Rod breaks out his scat rendition of “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy?” – man! That’s jazz, baby! Go! Go!

That’s not how it happened at all! My manager said my act “needed some polish”, and now I have a bright, shiny set of internal organ my neighbors will envy!

Slow down cowboy yourself, dicks.

That Billy Joel news is not new information…he was in the hospital after a motorcycle accident i believe.

What’s that awful smell in the air? Kinda like some awful combination of sperm, hair gel, conkaline, and rectal blood mixed with shit? Oh, i got it – Michael Jackson is out on tour!

How many times can you use the word “sentence” in a “sentence?” I have a word for you: Thesaurus

Elizabeth, you are a poor journalist. A quick Google search would have led you to the facts about Mystikal’s prison situation. Shame on you, dumbass.

“pilfer your throne” ahahahahaha. that’s actually pretty funny. your ass is sizzlin’, Goodman!

what was your comment, Fact Check?

E. Goodman’s Fact Check you’re crazy man…i like you, but you’re crazy

farting lemon pledge thats funny do you tink it is funny elizabeth goodmen comment me back on that one please!

Hi. I’m E. Goodman’s Update. Perhaps the info contained within me could have been incorporated within the main post if E. Goodman’s Fact Check hadn’t been taking a nap.

Where the hell is the jazz in the Jazz Fest?

it’s freakin sad that 90% of all the post on this site are about how horrible elizabeth goodman is, but what’s worse is that they seem 100% necessary.

So, Liz, does that mean I don’t get the fact checking position?

Still “boats” serious Louisiana roots? Spellchecker? Ever heard of it? I went to Cornell. Ever heard of that?

Actually, Steve, Goodman didn’t misspell boats. She spelled it correctly. She was just zipping thru this lame story, as it had nothing to do with Fall Out Boy, and put boat accidentally.

nice lineup but, are any, um, jazz musicians playing the jazz festival?

Yeah,it would be nice if Rolling Stone listed some of the JAZZ musicians, rather than just the Celebs we here of all the time.

k tal

It wasn’t more than a few years that the New Orleans Jazz Fest was all about New Orleans Jazz, Jazz, and Jazz related music. Now all of a sudden it’s the “Book A Lotta Big Stars So We Can Make A Lotta Cash” Fest. Too bad David Lee Roth and the Van Halens didn’t get back together to get a spot, they woulda gotten a booking, f’sure. But New Orleans is the original capital of “Anything For A Buck” so it’s appropriate.

any show with ZZ top will be a great show. Esp in New Orleans. Maybe Billy Gibbons can show Rod how to rock like The Jeff Beck Group again.

van morrison and steely dan have more than a casual fancy for jazz,and they have long and storied histories in new orleans. should there really be a credentials committee to keep non jazz acts off the jazz purest stage? the next thing you know Bob Dylan will show up playing that new fangled electic rock-n-roll

Re: Billy Joel, Mark Bego Book
The cataclysmic epiphany that “Billy Joel tried to commit suicide by drinking furniture polish,” as REVEALED by this intrepid National Enquirer HACK- is something that Billy Joel HIMSELF has told the media countless times.
A self-deprecating truism.

Not shocking.
Old news. Old facts.

Bego might have a spell checker.

BUT He should invest in a FACT checker.

A syntax checker.

A SOUL checker.

“Advice is cheap you can take it from me
It’s yours to keep ’cause opinions are free
Nobody knows about the trouble I’ve seen
Nobody’s perfect, mister, nobody’s clean
It costs too much and takes too long to find out too late
Some words are not heard ’til after they’re spoken
Your role was protective, your soul was too defective
Some people just don’t have a heart to be broken”

-Billy Joel
