Music Thread #1 for 8/10/09: The Runthrough

The Runthrough....Let's go. Yes, Guitar Hero 5 is coming out he first couple of weeks of September are going to be a banner time for music video games. On September 9 (09/09/09), the much-anticipated The Beatles: Rock Band will hit store shelves, just eight days after Guitar Hero 5 gets its chance to rock living rooms everywhere. With the Beatles game, it's easy to imagine long lines and huge sales figures. After all, this will be the first time that any of the recent slew of music-oriented video games will feature any Beatles songs, let alone dozens of them. But with Guitar Hero 5 (see video below)--has so much time gone by already that there could even be five Guitar Hero releases?--one has to work just a little bit harder to envision the big bucks that its publisher, Activision Blizzard, surely is hoping to bring in. LL Cool J's tribute song to Michael Jackson released today. Now he didn't even need to boast for MJ at the end of the track. That was unnecessary, no q...

Music Thread #1 for 7/8/09: Mariah Yesterday didn't

Normally, MSNBC's Courtney Haslett rubs me the wrong way with her attitude, but she does dig deep in her reporting, and she has common sense. And she did good today reporting that Mariah Carey at yesterday's Memorial was able to hit her high notes because she didn't have time to practice. And it shows how Mariah didn't give a damn about whether she was going to sound good or not. And to me, she sounded just alright to me. And another thing: I can understand the talk about her cleavage yesterday......but that shouldn't override any discussion of where her heart was at all yesterday.

He Was Doing Good Until He Said His Latest Stupidity

Image
Oy Al, oy! Besides calling for the Postal Service to waive off the five year death stamp honor only bestowed to presidents (boy, the day W dies, I wonder what will the reaction be) he said this Sharpton also will call for a national day of mourning honoring Jackson , his spokeswoman said. Uggh, that was just really stupid for him to say that. Sharpton has a point in some eyes that Jackson's coverage from the media has been more way more negative than say, Elvis Pressley or Frank Sinatra. They were far from golden men for sure, and I bet when they died, even without a 24 hour news media cycle now and the advancements of technology, that no one brought up their ugly moments or characteristics in their lives. Still, a national holiday and a removal of the stamp window period will make the many critics of him say, and have every right to say it, "Sharpton shows he's only for Sharpton again."

6/26/09- TWD's Agenda For The Day: They Were Singing And Dancing Yesterday

They were singing and dancing not only in Los Angeles yesterday, because the world is bigger than just Los Angeles. They were singing and dancing in New York. They were singing and dancing in Detroit. They were dancing and singing in London. They were dancing and singing in Tokyo. They were singing and dancing most likely in Gary, indiana. People were dancing and singing everywhere. They were quiet, melancholy, in shock the whole day. But singing and dancing is what they began to do when someone started playing the music of the person that they soon began to sing and dance about. Because they saw him sing and dance, and were inspired by it. Yes, some in the back of their minds thought about the embarrassing moments in his life, the humiliating ones. Ones that he may have regretted, ones that have lead friends to leave him or betray him, even though they were never friends to begin with in the first. And there are many in the back of their minds saying the same, and justified at times, ...

Post Before The Agenda: Universal Pulls LaToya Jackson Scene From Bruno Premiere

Good move by Universal. A needed move In the wake of Michael Jackson’s sudden death, a scene featuring LaToya Jackson in Sacha Baron’s Cohen’s new comedy “Bruno,” has been cut from the film prior to Thursday night’s Los Angeles premiere, Access Hollywood has learned. LaToya, Michael Jackson’s older sister, made an accidental cameo in “Bruno,” similar to one by Paula Abdul, where she was coaxed over to a home in Los Angeles for an interview with the fake Austrian fashion journalist. A source at Universal, the studio behind the film, told Access Hollywood that the scene in the movie with LaToya, which involves a Michael reference, was cut from tonight’s premiere out of respect for the family. The scene may also end up deleted when the movie heads out on general release in the United States beginning July 10, the source added . And they should do that as well.
