Etheridge will be doing a three night run with Leon Russell, which begins in Knoxville at The Bijou Theatre on November 17, 2014, and continues for two nights in Nashville at The City Winery. This will mark the second time these two have gotten together on tour.
"This is actually my second time being on the road with Leon, I'm happy to say. Last spring, Leon had a new record come out right about the time my new record, 'The Straight and Narrow Way,' came out." Etheridge said. "His management folks and the people at Rock Ridge music, the label I'm on, knew each other and started talking, and we did twelve dates.
"We started in Ithaca, NY and ended up in Lacrosse, WI. We had a great time being on the road with him and when they asked us to do these three dates, we jumped at the chance to go back out with him. We feel like we're going to have a bit of a reunion with the guys in the band," he said.
"Even As We Fall" is one of the highlights of the album. The driving force of the horns and funky, swinging, dance feel will land you right in the middle of a street parade on a warm afternoon.
"That's a New Orleans rhythm section and that's a New Orleans horn section, so you've got good ears. You actually hit on what the key was for us," Etheridge said. "I was working with my producer Wendell Tilley and co-producer Shane Theriot. When we were looking at the final set of songs that we had, we really started thinking about who would be the best rhythm sections for the way we heard the songs working out.
"We actually did some of the songs there in Tennessee, in Nashville. The stuff we felt that was more Memphis groove oriented, we tracked there in Nashville with Greg Morro, Michael Rhodes, you know, great Nashville rhythm section. We're all from Louisiana originally. I'm from Baton Rouge, Wendell is from Baton Rouge, and Shane is from New Orleans. My two biggest records were predominantly done in New Orleans," he said.
"We knew there were songs just like 'Even As We Fall' that we wanted to do in New Orleans, because we wanted that groove. There were a couple of the songs, like 'She's Only in New York' and 'Maze' that we wanted something different on in particular," Etheridge said. "We wanted, if we could get him, the legendary drummer, Jim Keltner (John Lennon, Ringo Starr, George Harrison and The Traveling Wilburys to name a few.)
'He has a very clean way he approaches songs. We made a list of party songs to take to him, knowing we'd probably only get him for one day. So we went to Los Angeles first, specifically to capture those songs with Keltner," Etheridge said. "He just did an amazing job with everything we wanted. Then we came back to Nashville and New Orleans to finish it off. We built it around the rhythm sections is the short answer."
Musicians always remember their first instrument, the thing that first got their feet wet. "It's a heart breaking story. My Dad had a friend who worked for Fender. Before I could really play guitar I was a drummer. In 1974, he gave me a sunburst Fender Telecaster custom," Etheridge said. "Back then it would cost you a couple hundred bucks. I couldn't really play. I was in bands at that point, so some of the guitarists would show me things.
"Later on when I went through a Jimmy Buffett phase, I said I need an acoustic guitar. It was the worst financial decision of my life. I traded it for some no name acoustic that I don't have anymore. Check out what the 1974 Fender customs are worth on the web now, $2,500-4,000, and what beautiful guitars they were. I probably owned it for five years before I made that fatefully bad decision. I couldn't take an electric guitar to the beach and sing to the girls at Myrtle Beach. It seemed like a good move at seventeen," he said.
"Many talented singer/songwriter/guitarists started on the drums, before switching to guitar and the front man position. When I was a little kid I loved what I heard of The Beatles and I loved that band, The Monkeys, a corny TV show, but they had some pretty cool songs. I wanted to be a drummer.
" I don't know what it was about Ringo that attracted me specifically to the drums. I got my first drum set and started taking lessons when I was nine or ten. I still play a lot. It's not my first line of defense, but I play pretty regularly," he said.
"I think you learn something rhythmically that can carry into anything. I do remember when I was learning to play guitar and my friends would struggle with strumming patterns, but I thought why is that hard? I think a lot of it would be the background you have rhythmically."
When asked about his first time playing live, Etheridge said "I think it was playing 'Little Drummer Boy' at a Christmas pageant in Colombia, South Carolina."
"The Straight and Narrow Way" was released March 18, 2014. It is full of falls from and rises to redemption, yet throughout it remains positive. "I think the positivity comes from a genuine place. I do feel fortunate in my life. I feel really fortunate to be making records. I feel fortunate to have two, almost grown, children," Etheridge said. "We've all had our ups and downs, and I've definitely had my share. In my own personal life, I am at a place where I am grateful and feel fortunate. That specific song, I don't write a lot of truly autobiographical stuff, but both my girlfriend and I have been through divorce and have been together seven years. That phrase, that we feel like we have a second chance, is something we both take seriously. I just do my best to not mess up."
Getting to be on the road is always full of adventure. Strange and wonderful new things are always presenting themselves. "Musically, the first thing that comes to mind is if you do a YouTube search on Cayamo Cruise 2013, 'The Weight.' It's a seven day Americana festival at sea on a Great Norwegian cruise line boat. On the last night they did a tribute to Levon Helm who had passed away," he said. "In that tribute, I got to do 'Ophelia,' which was a rush to be a part of that, but then we closed that night with 'The Weight.' If you watch, there is everybody who participated that night, including Shawn Colvin, Richard Thompson, Joan Osborne, Sean and Sarah Watkins of Nickel Creek, all of who are some of my musical favorites. And there I am sharing the microphone, singing the choruses with them, and Sarah ended up on my record. I still look at that and think I can't believe I was a part of that. And Levon was a drummer too, so there you go."
The Tontons are almost set to get a short touring break. They have been going hard for the last seven years; the first two years criss crossing Texas, and most recently all over the world. Their smooth, soulful sound has been drawing attention from everyone, including every major publication, for quite some time now and with no signs of slowing; the band is set to hit New Orleans for the Voodoo Music and Arts Festival 2014 (www.worshipthemusic.com) on Sunday, November 2nd. Many of you will be familiar with their singles, "Golden" and "Never Never" off their "Golden" EP and "Veida" and "Kid Cemetery" off their 2014 release, "Make Out Kings and Other Stories of Love." Recently we caught up with bassist Tom Nguyen to discuss high school, Red Bull and snowcapped mountains in the summer time.
The ability to look back and laugh at your past endeavors is really the only way to go forward. "It was in high school. (Laughing) I think I was a freshman, like in a talent show. Somewhere out there is a video of this and I hope it never surfaces. From what I remember, I don't think any of us were in tune. It was pretty awful. I believe we did a cover of something. I already know it's going to be awful. (On his first instrument) It was a knock off Gibson Explorer and it was yellow. I didn't know anything about guitars except some friends were getting into it and it sounded like crap. At first I thought it was just me, but it was the combination of myself and the guitar. "
"Make Out Kings and Other Stories of Love" covers a lot of ground, literally. It is written from the road, about the road and all the ways it can play on the individuals as well as the band as a whole. (On "Veida") "Originally it was about the band and it still sort of is. We had been touring for so long and jumped straight into the studio with half a record, trying to write the rest of the record in the studio. The song is about us not getting along after being around each other for so long that it got to the point like, 'are we all still friends? Is everything cool?' (On the road)Honestly it becomes all a blur. We've been out for so long. The thing that sucks is that there are some things that you don't appreciate that much. It takes a while for it to sink in. I was just here and here and here and these are all big cities. I was able to see all these amazing landmarks. We were at Niagara Falls on this last tour and I had never been before. We went really quickly. We were kind of short on time. We did it and left and then we kind of forgot we went to Niagara Falls. Some nights you've just got to get on the road or early the next morning. Some cities you don't even get to see. 'How was this city?' I don't even know. I know the venue and where we ate, possibly, and that's about it."
When there are only 34,000 people in a town, it's pretty easy for word to get around. Now, there are a lot of awesome shows that I tell my friends about, and this is definitely one of the ones I'm excited about. My friend at school told me, that he heard about this band through the grapevine. That made him curious. So what is it about this band that has everyone in such uproar? Head over to YouTube and see for yourself. I like the music, but there is something more to what is making the campus so excited for this show. We talked with JP, the guitarist for the band, and he told us, "We had a song that we used to play where people in the crowd would always take their clothes off and get up on stage with us and dance. They would do cartwheels and dance and just go crazy". We're sold. We don't need to hear anything else. Thank you, have a good day.
Yo Mama's Big Fat Booty Band formed in 2002, but it's not the same band today that it was back then. JP told us, "Me and Al Al ("Sweet Nasty" Ingram), the bass player, are the only two from the original band. I feel like since then, we have really evolved from just a "party band" to really caring about the sound of the music more."
Halloween is upon us and so many things are happening that it feels like you would literally have to have ghost like abilities to get to all of them. We will be down in New Orleans again this year covering Voodoo Music and Arts Festival 2014 and heading to several of the late night shows. On our list of things to do, Fishbone's late night set at The Joy Theater with special guests March Forth Marching Band, The Scorseses, DJ Quickie Mart, Eric McFadden and Nigel Hall on Halloween night is a must. These legendary ska rockers fit so well with the funky vibe of the city and with all the sit ins, there is no way that this won't be mind blowing. Tickets can be purchased at http://www.thejoytheater.com/tickets/list.
For those of you unfamiliar with Fishbone, they are a ska, funk, soul influenced rock band that has been going strong for 35 years. Their first major tour was opening for The Beastie Boys, though they have come a long way since then. Despite several changes in lineup, Fishbone pushes forward in a constant movement, always seeming to gain momentum. In 2011, "Everyday Sunshine: The Story of Fishbone, a documentary highlighting the bands many achievements over the years was released, promptly winning several "Best Documentary " awards all over the world. The film is ranked at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes and was nominated for a Golden Tomato Award, an achievement that is almost nonexistent with any film.
Recently the band released a 5-track EP titled "Intrinsically Intertwined" and is once again on the road showcasing their insanely large catalog (17 albums). They will also be performing at Voodoo Music and Arts Festival on Halloween night at 6:30 pm in addition to the Joy Theater show later that night. You can still get your credentials for Voodoo at worshipthemusic.com. For all things Fishbone, check out www.fishbone.net.
"The girl behind me and I were rocking out so hard that we accidentally head butted the sh*t out of each other. I started to apologize but she just laughed and gave me a hug. That's when I knew it was real. After that, I played six different air instruments, began to sweat profusely, and heard the guy next to me proclaim that he "ejaculated 3 times already"…and that was only half way through the show."
This is what I wrote about the last J. Roddy Walston and the Business concert I attended. Saying that I'm excited to go back would be an understatement. J Roddy stole the festival, not just the show, at the Rhythm and Roots Festival in Bristol this year and I made myself a promise that if I ever had a chance to go see them again, that I would throw caution to the wind. I told myself that I would skip class, steal a car, or kidnap the president to see these guys. Low and behold, J Roddy is coming to Winston Salem on November 4th. I'd walk if that's what it took.
You are probably wondering why I'm so enthusiastic about these guys. Well, I'm not going to just shower you with statistics about how J Roddy is winning all sorts of awards and is becoming ridiculously popular, because, that's not what they're about. J Roddy is about the feeling you get when you watch. A J Roddy show is an hour that you can put life on pause. Better yet, just Tevo it, you can get back to that later.

Planet of the Angels pt. 3"Doctor," Rose screamed. The angel statues had horrible faces, "What are these?" She banged her hand against the door. The angels were barely a foot away from her, their pointed fangs scared her half to death.The doctor was finally back to reality, for good he hoped. There were about five weeping angel statues in the room. He immidiately realized their faces, and what would happen to their faces if he blinked. The timelord suddenly remembered that Rose was in the other room, and had never heard of the angels. He tried to think, if he unlocked the door the angels would advance. Or the statues had already gotten to Rose. But where would he get with those thoughts. The doctor turned and unlocked the door with the sonic screwdriver and ran over to Rose's door, unlocked it and she screamed.The angel had grabbed her by the wrist. "Rose, get your wrist out," The doctor demanded. "I would, if I could," She tugged on her wrist, "Break off the statues wrist for god's sake." The doctor grabbed

Five Things Weird Al Critiques in Mandatory Fun
By Steve Brennan
By Ashley Zimmerman
The congenitally collegiate Brooklyn-based indie-pop outfit Aden named its last two albums, Black Cow and Hey 19, after Steely Dan songs, and though the idiosyncrasies the band buries within the fussy clean-channel noodling on its new Topsiders probably wouldn't attract the attention of Messrs. Fagen and Becker-- (Can you imagine anything getting those two really excited?) -- they do make for a listen that offers more than the precious insularity in which most congenitally collegiate indie-pop outfits merrily wallow. Or maybe it's just a different insularity: Aden makes a big deal out of the fact that it recorded Topsiders all by itself at singer-guitarist Jeff Gramm's parents' house on Chesapeake Bay, even including in the CD booklet lots of candid photos of the guys lounging around on sleeping bags and smirking at the stuffed game birds Gramm's dad (Texas Senator Phil Gramm) has hung on the house's walls. The songs feel like it, too, nosing into weird bridges and banjo solos that only made the final cut because no one was around to 86 the idea; the album's like a summer-camp talent show by a gang of grad students with too much recording equipment and too many Felt LPs. But do they ever make a pretty noise -- guitarist Kevin Barker's seemingly endless, gorgeous glissandos are a perfect match for Gramm's careful oversinging, especially when the supremely superfluous pan flute enters the mix. On second thought, this thing's as precious as your infant's first words; Aden's just really good.

Real Name
John Layfield
Date of Birth
November 29, 1966
Place of Birth
Reports have surfaced that Samoa Joe and TNA parted ways after Bound For Glory 2014 once the contract between the two sides expired. As many already know, the company has been allowing top level performers to walk away because they simply do not want to make big financial commitments until a new television deal is secured. The belief is that Joe could be brought back on board once a new home on television has been found.
October 14, 2014
There were some backstage jokes at Bound For Glory 2014 that Mike Tenay was the agent for Kaz Hayashi. The two of them formed a bit of a bond when they were working in WCW together. When Wrestle-1 officials were trying to decide who to throw into the triple threat match with Low Ki and Samoa Joe, it was Tenay that convinced them to go with Hayashi. Japanese officials were said to be quite impressed that Tenay even knew who Hayashi was.
October 13, 2014
During Bound For Glory 2014, Bully Ray and Devon specifically mentioned the Bullet Club, a stable in New Japan. That is of interest because the pay per view was promoted by Great Muta and Wrestle-1. This has led to speculation that Team 3D may end up signing with Jeff Jarrett and Global Force Wrestling because the company has a partnership with New Japan.
October 12, 2014
In a rather interesting move, Tajiri turned heel during a Wrestle-1 event this week. The decision is noteworthy because he is still scheduled to team up with the Great Muta as a baby face team during Bound For Glory 2014 in a match against James Storm and Seiya Sanada. No word yet on how TNA will handle the situation, but it could just be avoided since most American fans are not regular viewers of Japanese wrestling.
October 9, 2014
Jimmy Suzuki is the guy playing a big role on deciding the card for Bound For Glory 2014. He recently made a comment about there possibly not being enough room for a Knockouts match, and that drew the ire of TNA fans. Suzuki explained what he meant and revealed that he has quite a bit of history with booking women. Gail Kim came out and defended Suzuki as well, as he played a part in her career early on.
September 27, 2014
Those of you that watch Impact Wrestling already know that Samoa Joe did a segment where he gave up the TNA X Division Championship. That led to some speculations from fans as to whether or not it is a story line. Unfortunately, the injury is a legitimate one. Joe has been having some problems with his shoulders. He might still try to work through the pain and perform at Bound For Glory 2014, though.
September 25, 2014
The recovery for Davey Richards is not going as fast as many had hoped for, so TNA has had to make the tough decision to pull the Wolves from their advertised appearance at Bound For Glory 2014, which is taking place in Japan this year. No word yet on who will replace the duo, but there is a chance that Eddie Edwards could still be utilized on the pay per view in a match.
September 24, 2014
When his contract was expiring, a lot of fans wondered what TNA would do with Bully Ray and his stories since he was leaving the company. The two sides have reached an agreement to continue working together, so that the stories can be resolved. Bully Ray will also work the Bound For Glory 2014 event and be inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame before parting ways.
September 15, 2014
Since he has a criminal conviction on his record, there were some speculations as to whether or not Jeff Hardy would be allowed to travel into Japan to work at Bound For Glory 2014. Sources are now stating that the former world heavyweight champion has been cleared to enter the country if he wishes. It is now up to TNA to decide if they want to have him on the show. As of right now, Hardy is not being advertised for the pay per view.
September 14, 2014
Rumors are spreading rapidly right now that Bully Ray has signed a new contract with TNA. The speculation stems from the fact that the company is now openly advertising him for Bound For Glory 2014. His contract expired not too long ago, and at the time, the belief was that the two sides were not able to come to an agreement on a new deal because TNA was still waiting for a television contract. There is also a chance that Bully Ray could just be doing a one time thing for the company.
September 13, 2014
There are rumors floating around right now that Dixie Carter might be skipping out on Bound For Glory. That, of course, should spark up some speculation from fans that TNA is on the verge of shutting down. However, the possible reason why she may not attend the upcoming pay per view is because she might not physically be capable of enduring the long flight to Japan. She is still recovering from injuries suffered from the flying table spot with Bully Ray.
September 4, 2014
Reports surfaced not too long ago that Bully Ray was leaving TNA, as his contract was set to expire and a new deal could not be reached between the two sides. Apparently, he is going to remain on good terms with management, as the former world heavyweight champion is still being advertised for Bound For Glory 2014. Team 3D is scheduled to be inducted into the hall of fame that evening, but it would not come as a shock if Bully ended up working a match on the pay per view.
August 30, 2014
When Bound For Glory 2014 was announced, there were some concerns because New Japan was doing a show at the same venue on the same day as well. Dixie Carter and Great Muta no longer need to worry about that since NJPW has decided to cancel the event. No word yet on the cause behind the cancellation. There are some speculations that Jeff Jarrett, who was recently in Japan, might have had something to do with it.
August 16, 2014
Over the last several weeks, TNA has been generating quite the buzz, including a big announcement by Dixie Carter and Great Muta about doing Bound For Glory 2014 in Japan. Now, the company is hyping up a huge announcement that will be taking place at the London Film and Comic Con event. No official word yet on what the announcement will be, but some are speculation that TNA could be doing a pay per view in England soon.
June 30, 2014
It's going to be a busy day at the Korakuen Hall on October 12th. Dixie Carter and the Great Muta are not the only people hosting a wrestling pay per view at that venue. New Japan Pro Wrestling will also be doing an internet pay per view there as well. The belief is that one of the shows, most likely Bound For Glory 2014, will be taped in the afternoon.
June 26, 2014
The announcement by Dixie Carter and Great Muta turned out to be much bigger than initially expected. Some thought the two were just going to reveal that more Japanese wrestlers were coming to the states to work TNA shows. However, the two shocked the wrestling world by announcing that Bound For Glory 2014 will be taking place in Japan. Muta is expected to play a big part in setting everything up for TNA over in Tokyo.
June 25, 2014
On Wednesday, a press conference has been scheduled by Dixie Carter and the Great Muta. A huge announcement is expected to be made, but no details have been released just yet. Right now, rumors are pointing to another joint show between TNA and Wrestle-1. Speculations are that Muta will be bringing an influx of Japanese wrestlers over to the states to work the upcoming Bound For Glory 2014 show.
June 23, 2014
While details have yet to emerge from backstage, it does appear that the story line between Dixie Carter and the new baby face investory will be a focal point on Impact Wrestling for much of 2014. Some are even saying that it will stretch to Bound For Glory, which is taking place in October.
January 23, 2014
Kurt Angle tore his knee cartilage during his match against Bobby Roode at Bound For Glory.
October 31, 2013
A post from Twitter, where JBL mocks Shelton Benjamin by taking a picture of Rico Constantino, who is visiting Monday Night Raw today, and stating that Constantino is the best tag team partner that Charlie Haas has ever had in WWE.
August 18, 2014
"It actually came from a joke. Cody Rhodes likes to tell a story that when he was a little kid he used to watch me wrestle. I'm slightly older than Cody, we're talking three years or something like that, but in his head I'm a really old man. I once walked into the locker room and he was telling the entire locker room that when he was a kid he was watching me wrestling as this character he made up named 'Bad News Barrett' who goes around giving out bad news to people. So we all laughed about it and forgot about it. Then I was invited on the JBL and Cole show and they said they wanted to use me on the show and asked if I had any ideas of what to do. So I said you know what, let's just do Bad News Barrett. I'll just turn up and give people bad news and then disappear. I got a really good response online and fans were loving the catch phrase 'I'm afraid I've got some bad news' and Vince McMahon saw it and thought it was the funniest thing he had ever seen. Next thing you know I'm on TV doing it." - Wade Barrett explaining how his new gimmick in WWE came ot be
June 16, 2014
One of the biggest advertisers at Payback 2014 was Mountain Dew, and WWE made sure to let their fans know about it by having JBL, Jerry Lawler and Michael Cole promoting the soft drink throughout the evening. Fans in attendance at the pay per view, however, noted that Lawler was actually drinking Diet Coke whenever the cameras were not turned on to him. The commentator kept it hidden for much of the broadcast.
June 3, 2014
A couple of years back, fans witnessed a real life shoot incident in the ring between JBL and the Blue Meanie. Some blood was involved. Apparently, the two of them have resolved their issues since then, as JBL took to Twitter to wish the Blue Meanie a happy birthday. The former WWE stars appear to be quite cordial with one another now.
May 20, 2014
Rumors are floating around right now that WWE wants to make a change with their Monday Night Raw commentating team, but that is just pure speculations at this point. Management is said to be quite pleased with the trio of Michael Cole, JBL and Jerry Lawler. WWE wants Cole to remain at the position for the long haul, as he has taken over the position in a commanding way.
May 5, 2014
A picture of the mini announce team used by WWE at Extreme Rules 2014 during the WeeLC match between Hornswoggle and El Torito. The trio basically was a mock version of JBL, Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler, where they were respectively named JB Elf, Micro Cole and Jerry Smaller.
May 5, 2014
While their on screen characters in WWE did not get along, Shawn Michaels and JBL are good friends backstage. The two of them have arranged a special fishing expedition together in Bermuda. Michaels will be bringing the MacMillan River Adventures camera crew with him to the island to film scenes for an upcoming episode.
May 4, 2014
A picture of Michael Cole climbing a mountain. While it is hard to tell in the picture, the belief is that his WWE commentating partner JBL is there with him as well, as the two of them have become quite the climbing enthusiasts.
April 28, 2014
A video of Paige being forced to give up the WWE NXT Women's Championship by JBL because she is going to be too busy defending the Divas championship that she won from AJ Lee on Monday Night Raw a couple of weeks ago.
April 26, 2014
With the X-Men star making a return appearance next week, WWE has been hinting that Hugh Jackman is going to be knocking out one of the wrestlers. The company set up a poll to see which performer the fans wanted to see in the roll. Damien Sandow, JBL, Wade Barrett, Randy Orton, Batista, Ryback, Curtis Axel, Zeb Colter, Fandango and Jack Swagger were all included, but Triple H and Paul Heyman are currently in the lead.
April 25, 2014
With so many of his peers, including JBL, Michael Cole, Jim Ross, Chris Jericho and Steve Austin, finding success doing shows online, Taz is following suit. The TNA commentator announced that he was going to debut his own online radio show soon. The format will basically be the former world heavyweight champion talking about the daily topics in professional wrestling.
April 22, 2014
A picture of JBL with a statue of Teddy Roosevelt.
April 19, 2014
A picture of WWE stars on the set of the Soup, a popular television show that makes fun of current events. Titus ONeil, JBL, Michael Cole, Jerry Lawler, Dolph Ziggler, Nikki Bella and Brie Bella were recently guests on an episode.
April 12, 2014
"There is a lot of truth to that, absolutely. There were guys that came there from other organizations that perhaps they thought they should just skip everybody else and skip right to the top and have things right away the way they wanted. I mean, hey, there are rules and things that you have to abide by as far as this business goes. and you have to respect those. But, when you don't respect those, then hey, we have got a problem. So, yes, we had a lot of guys who came in with that attitude, and John and I would have to be called upon to let them know 'hey, that is not how it works here'." - Ron Simmons on how he and JBL handled backstage politics in WWE
April 1, 2014
When word spread earlier this week that JBL was the one behind the Twitter account that mocks Vince McMahon, it bothered the former WWE heavyweight champion enough that he felt compelled to release a statement of denial. It has even gotten to the point where JBL has now started blocking fans on Twitter who are harassing him about it.
March 23, 2014
Yesterday, speculations arose that JBL was the man that was behind a Twitter account which frequently mocked Vince McMahon with backstage information that only people within the company would be aware of. The WWE commentator took to Facebook to post a long message, denying that he is involved in such a thing. Some still think it may be JBL.
March 20, 2014
For the longest time, people backstage in WWE have been trying to figure out who was behind a Vince McMahon parody account on Twitter, as a lot of the stuff being said was insider information. Speculations have arisen that JBL might be the culprit. If proven to be true, there could be massive backstage heat between the two, as McMahon is said to hate the account.
March 19, 2014
Even though they both participated in the public bashing of Jim Ross on Monday Night Raw, there is said to be no backstage heat towards JBL and Jerry Lawler because everyone is aware that they were only following orders from a vengeful Vince McMahon. Both JBL and Lawler really enjoy their jobs, so it made sense for them to do what McMahon demanded.
March 15, 2014
The relationship between Jim Ross and Vince McMahon has gotten worse. A lot of fans noticed recently that JBL and Jerry Lawler participated in a segment that bashed Ross. That was done because McMahon was upset with Ross for telling an embarrassing story about him that ended up being covered by TMZ. The jabs may continue in the coming weeks, depending on how McMahon feels.
March 14, 2014
"I don't know any facts on CM Punk. I had the honor of wrestling Punk in his first main events in WWE, including a cage match in Madison Square Garden. I have always enjoyed Punk and being around him. I certainly wish him the best. Hope he comes back, but whatever happens, my best to him." - JBL discussing the backstage heat situation involving CM Punk

Hong Kong's Eason Chan makes history in London
Hong Kong pop singer Eason Chan has good reason to love London - he's become the first Chinese performer to play the city's O2 arena, starring in his sold-out DUO Concert.
Associated Press
Hong Kong pop singer Eason Chan has good reason to love London - he's become the first Chinese performer to play the city's O2 arena, starring in his sold-out DUO Concert.
Some 12,000 fans descended upon the iconic venue in the British capital Monday night to hear Chan perform twenty five songs from his Mandarin and Cantonese repertoire.
In an interview before the concert, the 37-year-old singer said he was surprised and pleased to have so much international support.
"I never thought I had so many fans in Europe. I heard people are coming from Belgium, Germany, France and Luxembourg and Spain," he said.
"Maybe they're bored," Chan added, joking.
Chan's DUO World Tour, which began in September 2010 in Singapore and has continued across Australia, Asia, Canada and the United States, has an unofficial slogan: "Who the hell is Eason Chan?"
The singer says that was the question a ticket seller asked after he sold out the O2 Arena in around 20 minutes and crashed the venue's servers.
Millions of fans already know the answer: Chan has released 30-plus solo albums and is one of the best-selling Mandarin and Cantonese pop artists.
"It doesn't matter what language you sing in, what makes it universal is the energy that you give out," said Chan.
This was his second appearance on a London stage after performing at the Royal Albert Hall in 2010.
"It didn't hit me ... until I went back to Hong Kong that I actually miss London, being in London," he said. "The crowd is amazing."
The Hong Kong native started his musical career by winning the New Talent Singing Competition in 1995, but expanded quickly into acting. He has starred in more than twenty films and has been nominated for the Hong Kong Golden Horse Awards and the Hong Kong Film Awards.

Consequence appeared on MTV's RapFix Live today (that's the entire episode above), revealing that he is no longer down with Kanye West or his cousin Q-Tip, who brought him into the game in his teenage years. Cons explained that his still unreleased sophomore LP, Cons TV, was to be executive produced by Kanye and Tip, but both abandoned the project, leading to his current issues with them.
"We definitely have personal issues," he told Sway. "He and Kanye elected to be executive producers of my Cons TV project. It's ABG….. I'm not harping on anything, but I'ma point out the obvious. I committed my time, my energy, my efforts to what we all committed to. That's the Cons TV project. It's not to be understated. They rolled with me through everything. They heard the stories on the 'Job Song.' They heard 'Uncle Rahiem.' They rooted for me. This was the coup de gras."
"My purpose for coming here was clarification," he continued. "There are many fans who still align me with G.O.O.D. music, and it's not fair to their intellect that they're fooled in that matter…..I'm not part of G.O.O.D. Music. It's via Bandcamp Records."
Q-Tip responded on Twitter shortly after the interview, with a series of Tweets that read as follows…
"Nigga be watching too much wrestling. GLUE? I gave the nigga a look. He doesn't even know what the hell he's talking about. Now he's talking about my biz? Our fans ain't stupid, they want to know. This nigga chomps, damn. He DOESN'T know what he's talking about."
Look for part three of our exclusive interview with Consequence, coming next week.
This sounds like some shit that goes on during high school years
Cons definitely is lame for this one… Think I might stop listening to this dude on principle…

Avery Storm - Supermodel
Artist: Avery Storm
Producer: Blastoff
Album: Shotgun Love
Avg Rating: 3.1 ( 20 votes )
Featured back in April, Avery Storm's official debut single found the singer unable to think about any female but the one who'd just walked out of his life – there simply wasn't a woman in the world who could measure up to his girl. Well, I'm happy to announce that the singer's gotten over his bout of heartbreak, and is back on the prowl – Storm's latest single finds him at the local nightspot, angling to get a Supermodel-caliber shawty to hop into his limousine. While the Jersey-bred crooner's unique vocal style shines as brightly here as on previous features, producer Blastoff's synth-driven beat gives this cut a considerably more club-focused feel than the more organically soulful material we've heard from the artist to date. Is Supermodel's dancefloor-ready sound a good look for the Universal Motown/Derrty Ent. buzzmaker? That, my friends, is for you to decide. Whichever side of Avery Storm's style you prefer, though, you'll want to keep it locked for the latest on his Shotgun Love LP, set to hit store shelves and online retailers "soon."

Playing their own brand of catchy-as-all-hell pop-punk, the band developed a rabid young fanbase in thrall to the band's ebullient, fist-pumping anthemery, arena-sized hooks and high-voltage live performances. Tonight Alive are: Jenna McDougall - Vocals, Whakaio Taahi - Guitar, Cameron Adler – Bass, Jake Hardy - Guitar, and Matt Best – Drums.

Last month, Volkswagen, which already controlled more than 89% of the voting rights in the Swedish truck maker Scania, made a 6.7 billion euro ($9.2 billion) takeover bid. VW's goal is to combine Scania with its Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles business and the German truck maker MAN. VW gained full control of MAN last year after taking a majority stake in 2011. This is a big step in the German automaker's plan to create a massive trucks alliance to compete in global markets against rivals Volvo and Daimler – both of which have U.S. truck operations as well.

Meritor is original equipment supplier to many of the biggest truck makers and sponsors of the FIA European Truck Racing series. Many of the race trucks over the last few seasons have featured the Meritor 145 race axle, which is made at the plant here in Cameri, Italy. Because the first FIA race of the season takes place at the Misano World Circuit on Italy's Adriatic coast, just a short drive from Cameri, Meritor held a family day at the plant for the workers and their families to come out and see the race trucks and meet the drivers.

When the new 2011 Miss Texas is crowned Saturday night, it could very well be a Weatherford College student taking that victory walk down the ramp. Clarin Gniffke, Miss Weatherford College, is among the 37 young women competing in the Miss Texas Scholarship Pageant.
Contestants are judged in talent, interview, evening gown, fitness and an on-stage question. At 18, Gniffke is one of the youngest contestants but brings a combination of intelligence, poise, beauty and talent certain to place her among the favorites in all categories.
Home-educated through high school and currently a sophomore at WC where she is president of the WC Republican Club and a member of the honor society Phi Theta Kappa, Gniffke served as an intern in Congresswoman Kay Granger's Washington D.C office and worked last summer on Capitol Hill. Currently, she is interning for Rep. Phil King. She plans to combine her degree in communications and politics in some way after graduation. Not surprisingly, then, her Miss Texas platform topic is Your Vote Counts: Promoting Civic Responsibility through Voting.
Gniffke's talent presentation will be "You'll Never Walk Alone" on the harp. She has been studying with Weatherford harpist, performer and teacher, Sydney Howell, herself not a stranger to pageant competition as the 2010 Miss Senior Parker County.
The Miss Texas Scholarship Pageant is part of the Miss America organization. Semi-final competitions in the major categories will be held Tuesday through Thursday with thefinals July 1 at the University of Texas at Arlington. It also will be viewable by webcast live at 7:55 p.m., www.misstexas.org/webcast. Tickets for the pageant still are available through the Miss Texas Central Ticket Office, www.centralticketoffice.com.
