Hallelujah! Finally we are getting closer to the Beastie Boys new album Hot Sauce Committee, Pt. 2 (May 3) and here’s the first single, “Make Some Noise.”  It totally sounds like old school Beastie’s and I for one already love it and can’t wait to get my hands on the disc and listen to the rest.

Video: Zac Brown & James Taylor – “Colder Weather”

5 Apr

I know I’m late on this but since I didn’t watch the ACM Awards I just got around to watching the Zac Brown/James Taylor performance of “Colder Weather” into “Sweet Baby James.” Great duet and definitely worth watching if you haven’t caught it yet either.

Willie Nelson Sings His Way Out Of Jail Time

29 Mar

Must be nice for Willie Nelson, click HERE to read the item from Max Blau of PASTE.com about Texas prosecutor Kip Bramblett agreeing to make his punishment a $100 fine and one song sung in the courtroom instead of up to 180 days in jail and a $2,000 fine.

Except from PASTE.com

“Willie Nelson has managed to elude jail time and a fine on the condition that he sings “Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain” to the Texan court that heard his case. Last November, the heralded country songwriter had been charged for possessing marijuana after six ounces were found in a search of his tour bus. The amount was lessened to three ounces after the search, downgrading the charge to a misdemeanor that could have netted Nelson up to a $2,000 fine and 180 days in jail.” Click HERE to read the rest of the entry.
