- Obamania culminated with Barack being elected the 44th President of the United States, thanks (maybe) to some last-minute stumping by Bruce Springsteen in clutch swing state Ohio. Pretty much everyone voted (except David Byrne), then the music world celebrated.
- Jack Bruce of Cream started a rock feud with Led Zeppelin about 35 years too late, calling the band “crap,” saying Jimmy Page “ain’t no Eric Clapton” and topping it all off by accusing Robert Plant of being “the wrong kind of fertilizer.” Pwned!
- Bruce Springsteen’s fansite revealed that New Jersey’s rock god is working on the follow-up to 2007’s Magic and that it should be released by January 2009. That’ll give Bruce some new material to play at the inevitable Obama inauguration all-star concert.
- We still had way too much time on our hands as we tested out the new Wii Music game, explored the 50 Best Rock & Roll Video Games of All Time and talked Guitar Hero: World Tour with the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne. Our thumbs have never been more blistered.
