Pink Floyd Reunites (Almost), Pete Doherty Bleeds, R. Kelly Doubles Up and More

5/11/07, 1:57 pm EST

Pink Floyd reunites, Gilmour, Waters, Mason, Wright

  • Despite the fact that all four members performed on the same stage last night at a Syd Barrett tribute concert, it wasn’t simultaneously. Waters went solo, and the remaining three (Gilmour, Wright, Mason) performed as a group, sparking hours of infighting between fans over whether that constituted an actual Pink Floyd performance.
  • Starting today, you can buy self-portraits that Pete Doherty crafted using his own blood. Just a warning, though: At Customs, the artwork will fail every drug test imaginable, and you may be arrested for importing illegal substances.
  • Full details of R. Kelly’s Double Up have been revealed. It’s set for a May 29th release and features guest spots by Snoop Dogg, Ludacris and a misplaced Kid Rock.
  • Phil Spector was “not his usual self” the night Lana Clarkson was found shot to death in his mansion, according to witness testimony yesterday at the Spector murder trial. Cross-examination failed to show whether “not his usual self” meant he actually fired the weapon, as opposed to his “usual” just pointing the gun.
  • For their next trick, Nelly Furtado and Timbaland are planning to form a rock band. A band name has not yet been decided upon. Any recommendations?

Oh, gee. Neat-o. Another hip-hop crossover band!! It’ll be like Head Automatica only with dudes in it. Oh, wait. How ’bout Toe Manual Transmissionica. Or an amalgamation of their names – Turd-ado. Or something tried and true like Jefferson Starship (adapted from Jefferson Airplane). How ’bout the Washington Vespas? “We built this city on hip-hop and pretentiousness (and Missy Elliot’s gigantic ass)”. Should be a great project.

You’ve got a real type of thing going down, gettin’ down,
There’s a whole lot of rhythm going round…

Natalie Z | 5/11/2007, 4:10 pm EST

Dan, you rock.

The band should be “Radiodead”.

Nikkidoo | 5/11/2007, 4:11 pm EST

OW, we want the funk,
give up the funk.
OW, we need the funk,
we gotta have that funk,

La, la, la, la, la
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, owwwwwwww

Sounds more like a green Floyd performance to me. Or maybe slightly yellow…

charliemapleton | 5/11/2007, 6:50 pm EST

My idea for a Nelly/Timbo crossover band?

SERIOUSLY MISSING MAGOO

When you and your other VA mainman made records that mattered,via side help from Aaliyah and Missy.Not a chance in hell,Timbo!

Furtaland or Nelly Timbales

hippityhop | 5/11/2007, 11:17 pm EST

timbanelly!

Charlie Miller | 5/12/2007, 2:15 am EST

Band should be called Musical Rape.

How would that constitute a Floyd reunion?

Mike | 5/12/2007, 3:47 am EST

Why has R. Kelly not released Trapped in the Closet, volumes 12-24? Seriously.

Gardy | 5/14/2007, 12:49 am EST

The name of Timbaland and Nelly’s band should be called “Two flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest with their band of merry men”

STRATCAT | 5/14/2007, 9:01 am EST

Nelly FARTADO and Timberland should call their group MEDIOCRITY because that’s what they’re selling.
Go pick up “Abbey Road” by the Beatles or “Songs in the Key of Life” by Stevie Wonder or Substance by New Order so you can hear what real music with real musicians writing their own music and not using other peoples melodies is like.
Like Bob Dylan said “when i was starting out..people to get in this business had to have real talent”.
Today it’s about computers,beats,and sub par talent.

mikeky | 5/14/2007, 10:31 am EST

nelly furtado and timbaland? they should call it ‘hos and tricks’. the title of their album should be ‘we’re here to separate you from your money, dumbass’.

Stone | 5/23/2007, 8:57 pm EST

Its really a shame that Pink Floyd cant settle their problems, really a shame. Their fans deserve to have the chance to see them once again, young people should be able to experience true music. Maybe someday.

Oh,by the way which one's pink | 1/28/2008, 12:06 am EST
