Rock on, ‘rock’ stars.

There are a few certainties in life, right? Death, taxes and fake musicians in ads. If Slash Lite® was really rocking out, that Newport would be in the neck of the guitar and he’d actually be using a pick, staggering as he went along. I see none of these things, and frankly, it hurts me. Oh, and the only person allowed by law to play that way was Jimi. Cobain went there but even he was smart enough not to invert it. So Newport Rocks, put the axes down and step away from the jean jackets. (And as you leave the page, don’t even think of smashing the Wal-Mart play along axes like Townshend either. You’re not worthy.)

Kool is using an Asian man wearing headphones sitting at a mixing board. He is relaxed, chilled, kool. That's much smarter, if you ask me.

These kids look ridiculous. Which reminds me: anyone tired of the Sheryl Crow blitz for Clairol and whatever else she's shilling?

Ha ha... yes. Not only does her hair color not fade - but it magically touches up her roots.
