A Moment Of Noise

Hmm…. I love Devo. And I love McDonalds. So…. torn….

Well, I think I have to side with Devo on this one. Bad move, Ronald.

On the other hand, those toys are gonna fetch big bucks on eBay pretty soon…

“I was thrilled,” Rice said of her late-night encounter with Kiss frontman Gene Simmons and bandmates Paul Stanley, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer in the executive lounge of the Sheraton Hotel where they signed autographs and handed out backstage passes and T-shirts to her staff. “It was really fun to meet Kiss and Gene Simmons.”

It is about damn time…

They’re naive, self-important, and perpetually plugged in. This is a call to arms against Millennials.

So, Tom Waits is doing a tour. Wasn’t his last tour, like, ten minutes ago? It must’ve been, because I remember going, and I remember having a good time. I also remember there being a line about ten miles long, and the show starting about 6 hours late because it took so damn long to process all the fans thru the security procedure.

OK, so once upon a time, a Tom Waits tour was kind of a rare thing, and I could see that it might not be a totally bad idea to try to put a lid on scalper activity. But now he’s back again only two years later, playing a venue several times larger, and check out these hoops you have to jump thru if you want to go:

Are you fucking kidding me? I’ll pass.
