Prince Causes Another U.K. Uproar, Marilyn Manson’s Movie Gets a Shoot Date, Flaming Lips-Scored Doc on the Way

  • He’s not an official royal, but Prince is generating more ink in the U.K. than anyone named William or Harry. The Mail on Sunday, the newspaper that’s giving away free copies of Planet Earth, is threatening to sue the British equivalent of Billboard for not allowing sales of the newspaper/CD to count toward the album charts.
  • Marilyn Manson’s Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll, starring his girlfriend Evan Rachel Wood as Alice (of Wonderland fame), will begin filming in late autumn.
  • Graham Coxon may or may not be rejoining Blur. The band booked studio time in September as a four-piece, which fueled speculation that Coxon is the fourth piece.
  • Summercamp!, a documentary about (surprise!) summer camp that’s scored by the Flaming Lips, will hit theaters soon. Or you can Netflix it now.
  • Do you ever pause in the supermarket and wonder what happened to key members of Quiet Riot, Cinderella and Nitro? Well, wonder no more, thanks to this article.

Prince is right. Charts, billboards, sales, all that stuff means nothing. A true music luva does not use that stuff 2 gauge whether or not 2 buy an artist’s material. It’s about the music itself. Those stats r important 2 the wrecka industry, not true musicians. I hope he succeeds, tho I’m kinda salty I have 2 wait til the end of the month 2 get my copy when it’s released in the US… I can 4give him 4 that. :)

Prince needs to give the album away because its really awful.

The only way Marilyn Mason’s movie will be worth watching is if Rachel Evan Wood is naked in it. Lewis Carroll did like young girls in the nude

Prince still breaking the rules, i bet you 10 years from now lots of mainstream and indi acts will follow.

How old is prince anyhow? Shouldn’t he be looking a bit aged by now? Probably uses a ton of cosmetics.

I was told that Stephen Pearcy was singing with Ratt this year for the tour. Is that true?? Or just another rumor.

Stephen Pearcy | 7/13/2007, 3:53 pm EST

Hi Nate,

I’m doing fine and thanks for asking! Oh, gotta go, another car has just pulled up to the drive-thru. Take care and remember Ratt -n- Roll 4-Eva!!!

NYC Nate | 7/13/2007, 3:35 pm EST

Dude. What’s Stephen Pearcy from Ratt doing these days? The article covers Nitro, but not Ratt?!? What! Do I have to Wiki this shit myself?!?
