Rock Roundup 822
Wishing someone would finally release more details about Keith Richards falling out of that tree in Fiji that resulted in brain surgery? A new interview with Ronnie Wood published in London's The Independent newspaper finally gives it up. Wood says, "I was sitting right behind him when it happened. I heard this massive thud and I spun around, and there he was, on the ground. He'd cut his gums up on impact, he was very bloody, and clutching his head. I think it was a kind of wake-up call for him. His attitude is better now, and you can see it in everything he does. It's like he knows he is lucky to be alive, and is well happy about it."
Experience Hendrix, the family trust that maintains the music and legacy of Jimi Hendrix, is denying reports that the late guitarist's entire musical catalog will be sold. The estate of Michael Frank Jeffrey, Hendrix's onetime manager, announced that the catalog would be auctioned on October 26th. Experience Hendrix, however, says, "Experience Hendrix is not party to that auction and has no intention, whatsoever, to dispose of these properties. Experience Hendrix hereby gives notice to any would-be seller or buyer that it will use all measures to honor its mandate to vigorously protect its rights to the Jimi Hendrix catalog."
Last Friday Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett joined Tool on stage to play on "Sober" at Blaisdell Concert Hall in Honolulu.
Dr. Phil, Sting and Jon Bon Jovi. How's that for a combo? Sting and Jon will perform during the J-C-Penney Jam -- The Concert for America's Kids, airing tonight at 8:00 on C-B-S. The show, taped in June at L-A's Shrine Auditorium, is aimed to raise awareness and funding about the need for working families to have access to quality after-school programs. The special, hosted by Doctor Phil McGraw and his wife Robin.
Steven Tyler is ready to hit the road with Aerosmith just months after undergoing experimental throat surgery, which we finally have some details of. Instead of cutting Tyler's vocal cords, doctors at Massachusetts General used a laser to fix the problem. "Quick bursts of green laser light, lasting just 15 milliseconds, zapped Tyler's broken blood vessel, sealing it without touching it." Not only is Tyler preparing for the tour, which starts September 5th in Columbus, Ohio...but he's also been recording tracks for the band's next album that is due out next spring.
