  • Foxy Brown will avoid additional jail time after pleading guilty to hitting her neighbor with a cell phone last year.
  • Frank Zappa’s trust will issue a previously unreleased 1972 Zappa concert on May 27th as a two-disc set called Wazoo.

I guess the answer is “Yes” as to whether or not Dave goes ass to mouth!

I think Metallica sucks, but who employed you “Mr. Quality Control” over Metallica’s music?

Why don’t you worry about making up for a very average “Silence Echoes Patience and Grace”

Between trying to push your way into Zeppelin and now trying to tell Metallica what to do, you really need to fuckin’ Check Yourself!

Grohl is so fucking awesome. Would be cool to see him drum for Metallica as long as it wouldn’t interfere with the Foos

Yeah, I think Grohl’s saying if it sounds like “St. Anger,” keep it to yourselves. I wholeheartedly concur.

Jughead- I don’t think Grohl is as oblivious as that.

I love Dave Grohl!!!

Way to kiss some ass, Dave Grohl. Metallica hasn’t been blowing “everybody’s fuckin’ minds” for a number of years now. I think Grohl is listening to pre-Metallica’s black album stuff and thinks they still sound like that.
