Michael Buble Meets Madison Square Garden

Grammy winning cutie Michael Bublé just released a new DVD/CD, “Michael Buble Meets Madison Square Garden," last week. Take a look at the live performance of Buble singing, "I've Got the World on a String" below.

Swing It Back

There are a couple of misconceptions about Swing Out Sister that need to be cleared up.

Yeah, the twice Grammy-nominated band’s breakthrough number six hit "Breakout," is as bubble gum as they come, but don’t for one second mistake them for a pop band.

Thunder Only Happens When It's Raining

The music of mega group Fleetwood Mac has always sounded like a quiet storm to me… and not simply because of the song "Storm," the "Dreams" lyric: "Thunder only happens when it's raining" and the rain scene in the "Gypsy" video.
 
Between Mick Fleetwood's steady drumming, Christine McVie's precise keyboarding and Stevie Nick's haunting vocals, I just hear rain.

Piano man

OUT New York-based singer/songwriter and instrumentalist Chris Garneau is "a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars."

Kylie USA Tour Announced

So finally, Kylie's stateside homos (and other miscellaneous fans) will get a chance to experience her live in concert when a 6-city tour kicks off September 30th.

We can start falling all over ourselves when tickets go on sale the weekend of May 15th.

Also, members of Kylie's mailing list via her official website www.Kylie.com will receive an exclusive email that contains information of special ticket pre-sale offers.

Good luck getting a seat! Some of the venues are smaller than a shiny silver micro-mini skirt ...

Coachella Pics

The sucky economy and sudden SoCal heatwave didn't keep music fans from paying $120 a ticket and showing up in droves last weekend for the annual Coachella music festival in Indio, CA. Here are some of the highlights in pictures ...

Stevie Nicks Explains Why She's A Technophobe

Friends who want to get in touch with Stevie Nicks know not to send an e-mail, call on a cell phone, or reach out by text message, because she won't respond.

It's not that she's being rude: Nicks doesn't own a computer or a cell phone. The 60-year-old rock legend, who is currently on tour with Fleetwood Mac, is a proud technophobe.

"I believe that computers have taken over the world. I believe that they have in many ways ruined our children. I believe that kids used to love to go out and play," Nicks says in her famously smoky voice.

The Prodigy Invade!

‘MOVE!’ is the first word I hear while taking pictures.  The concert has barely begun and security is already preparing for a crowd surfing dump into our media pit.  Luckily, the concert-goer is returned to his feet so he can enjoy the performance instead of being roughly escorted back into the Kool Haus sidelines.  Oh yes, ‘The Prodigy’ have invaded Toronto!

The E.N.D. is Near for The Black Eyed Peas

Finally! After a four-year break between studio albums, The Black Eyed Peas have announced "The E.N.D.", hitting stores and iTunes on June 9th. "Boom Boom Pow" will be the first single.

Get "Dirty" with The Cliks

Despite themselves, The Cliks couldn’t help but make a new record that made order and sense out of tumult and turbulence. The Toronto band had a whirlwind past two years since the release of their debut album, "Snakehouse" -- and there’s no sign that they’ll be slowing down anytime soon.

Holed up this past fall at Radio Star Studios in Weed, California,  the band put their emotions, thoughts and talents together to create the evocative, driving and exciting tracks on "Dirty King", their new album dropping June 23rd. Feeling bad never sounded quite so good!
