It's About Damn Time


Took them long enough but No Doubt goes into the studio next week to start work on their first album together in about seven years. Cannot believe it has been that long, but it has. They also announced they were going to tour again beginning next summer. What they didn't announce but what has been buzzing around like a fly is that their first show actually might be at Coachella in April. That's right. A reunited No Doubt on the same bill with a reunited Smiths. Umm, that seems like a fairly fun weekend.

To make this whole tour a family affair, Gwen should be nice and hook up Gavin Rossdale with an opening slot. Wouldn't he just love opening for No Doubt for the next 18 months. What he should do is get back together with Bush and actually make some really good music.

Speaking of music, allegedly at some point this afternoon going to have a report from the American Music Awards last night. I know it is being written as we speak, so hopefully it will have some snark in it, because it was a pretty boring show.

It's about damn time. Gwen Stefani was okay on her own, but her music was too much like everyone else's. I really hope they can successfully reinvent their sound.

I only caught some of the AMA's, but what I saw was fairly uneventful. I did see Beyonce's performance though, and I have to admite that I find that "Single Ladies" song quite catchy.

I always thought "Return to Saturn" was a pretty good album.

I think the Smiths thing is in Limbo at the moment, last I saw, someone from the Smiths that's not named Morrissey or Marr said no. I'm sure it's a matter of money, but I thought they were already breaking the bank.

They always struck me as poseurs. If you want real ska, listen to The Selecter or The Specials.
