The promoter of West Fest, the free San Francisco concert on October 25th celebrating the 40th anniversary of Woodstock, is asking three-thousand guitar players to simultaneously play Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze." The current record was set last year when just over two-thousand guitarists came together in Concord, California to play Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land." In 2007, 18-hundred people played Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water" in Germany.

Plant's Audi A-8 collided with a Mercedes S-L 300 driven by Richard Grant, who tells the Telegraph, "I went to the hospital for five hours and luckily there were no broken bones, but I was badly bruised on the arm and had whiplash. My Mercedes is smashed up and I'm not in a good way." 34 years ago next week, August 4th, 1975, Plant and his family were seriously injured in a car accident on vacation on the Mediterranean island of Rhodes, forcing Led Zeppelin to postpone their fall U-S tour.</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The latest edition in the Madden video game franchise features a mixture of hard and classic rockers.

They are his self-titled debut and <em>Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere</em>, both released in 1969; 1970's <em>After the Gold Rush</em>; and 1972's <em>Harvest</em>.<br /><br />It's a bare-bones video bin this week...The true horror tale <strong>A Haunting in Connecticut</strong> stars Virginia Madsen (Sideways) and Elias Koteas as a couple that seeks an exorcism to rid their former-mortuary home of ghouls. The based-in-fact HBO movie <strong>Grey Gardens</strong> stars Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lange as eccentric relatives of Jackie Onassis. And season 2 of <strong>Mad Men</strong> is the only TV that's gone digital this week.Tleewaorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09196854428845842909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27477960.post-56010090007739819962009-07-13T07:53:00.002-04:002009-07-13T07:58:27.071-04:00Today it's Def Lep on Vinyl Monday...Side 1 of Hysteria<div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357911916052196114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPoFmdiZhUyOoGD6OaE9vjtuLne1tfuliypYrrYjoUY211jAAKGcincqjIAGNqxGLiu7bLByV7gX4B-k26U3jNfwFM8Cu5visLx9SSlloTzTYe3c1BbUlN6SV05Oto_qjGr7N2Lw/s320/def-leppard-hysteria-front.jpg" border="0" /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBEgFMD9VekNoCFrEDNVcMArKKtUFIIOblhn698IH78Gv8rsVzcUsr6j0W3ddRMiTFphNrpZx8pCMFOSGNLmehBFMDk5UZ6xPs5sTejBguAUwXHNh-n1JXG1s0kbF1Yhwokbki0A/s1600-h/def-leppard-hysteria-back.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357911923036485586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBEgFMD9VekNoCFrEDNVcMArKKtUFIIOblhn698IH78Gv8rsVzcUsr6j0W3ddRMiTFphNrpZx8pCMFOSGNLmehBFMDk5UZ6xPs5sTejBguAUwXHNh-n1JXG1s0kbF1Yhwokbki0A/s320/def-leppard-hysteria-back.jpg" border="0" /></a> <span style="color:#00cccc;">women</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#00cccc;">rocket</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#00cccc;">animal</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#00cccc;">love bites</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#00cccc;">pour some sugar on me</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#00cccc;">armageddon it</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;"></span> </div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffff00;">every</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffff00;">song</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffff00;">was</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffff00;">a</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffff00;">hit</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;"></span> </div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">for</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">a</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">reason</span></div>Tleewaorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09196854428845842909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27477960.post-63062777557785105792009-07-03T10:04:00.001-04:002009-07-05T12:09:14.152-04:00Phriday Photo Phinish: "Oops", by Wal-Mart<div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4_FhJJ9Y3fjxQC5AI6-vaCeM_l3sMnGJlN9A8QZgOSALtV4WJTv33kzeyTo3nocWdFOD5rsMTLxRO3hNnW-V3QpozJqZ_3VyM0F8-ung0ow8CLfUZie0VEyp4p3wgYnYUkTGiXg/s1600-h/ppp703.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353801842591857618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4_FhJJ9Y3fjxQC5AI6-vaCeM_l3sMnGJlN9A8QZgOSALtV4WJTv33kzeyTo3nocWdFOD5rsMTLxRO3hNnW-V3QpozJqZ_3VyM0F8-ung0ow8CLfUZie0VEyp4p3wgYnYUkTGiXg/s320/ppp703.jpg" border="0" /></a> (taken at the Portage store in South Bend by my wife, The Beloved Kim)<br /><br /></div>Tleewaorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09196854428845842909noreply@blogger.com
