[Music News] Slash says no to Guns N' Roses "Glee" show
by Fresh New Music,posted Oct 25 2011 5:15PM
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Slash said that he was approached by the producers of the television show Glee about doing a Guns N' Roses themed show. Here's what he had to say:
"Actually, we got asked about that once already but it got turned down. In the current climate of what’s going on in entertainment these days, I try to be more optimistic than negative because it’s really easy to get negative about it, but I draw the line at Glee. Glee is worse than Grease and Grease is bad enough…. When Grease came out I was like, 'Oh, c’mon, give me a break.' Actually, I look at Grease now and think: Between High School Musical and Glee, Grease was a brilliant work of art."
In the other parts of the interview, Slash talked about his new tour with Ozzy Osbourne, and how Velvet Revolver is currently looking for a new lead singer after the departure of Chris Cornell. You can read the article here.

In reality (& for the lay person) I'm not sure what Mr. Slash is actually saying. I found no solid reference to what actually the current climate in entertainment is. The only thing I knew for sure that in the past a request for a G 'n R themed show had been turned down. Maybe I need to read the entire acticle to get the actual gist.....

I'm pretty sure what "Mr. Slash" is saying, and I thought this was more than a little obvious, is that Glee sucks.

Chris Cornell was never the singer of Velvet Revolver, dearie. He currently fronts Soundgarden. You mean Scott Weiland.
Have you heard the song "Rumble and Sway" yet on Triple M?
The singer sounds like a raspy blues dude who's definitely been around the block a few times....but surprisingly, Jamie N. Commons is only 23 years old!
He was born in England, but...
Last week, I decided I would try one new, healthy food a week, and asked my facebook friends to make some suggestions.
The first thing I tried was mango. I'm sure I've had other mango flavored things, and mango as part of something else, but...
There's only one thing that might be worse than the Neil Diamond/Barbra Streisand duet "You Don't Bring Me Flowers." And that's Jonathan Suttin doing his best crooning...doing both parts. Most unpleasant.
A lot of people liked this song...

Last weeks challenge we thought went excellent! Of course we are a little biased.

So the story goes Michael Jackson completed this song while watching cartoons with Paul McCartney. We'll just let that sink in for a moment.
Not sure what cartoons they were watching, but it must have worked because this song made it to number 2...

This duet by Ol' Blue Eyes and his daughter went all the way to number 1 back in 1967. It seems a little creepy that Frank and Nancy Sinatra are singing a love song. However, a lot of Triple M listeners were in the mood for it.
