John Fogerty’s New Song
John Fogerty Releases New 'Mystic Highway' Song
Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx took socialite and all-around media . . . uh, "personality" Kim Kardashian to task on Monday (May 20), after the bad-reality-TV-star-turned-product pitch woman posted to Twitter to promote her new bronzer line during the horrific tornado that touched down in Moore, Okla. and struck an elementary school, reportedly leaving at least 51 people dead in its wake.
'The Hangover' giveth and 'The Hangover' taketh away.
The first 'Hangover' made Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, and especially Zach Galifianakis stars, and it elevated Todd Phillips from middling Hollywood director to name-brand comic auteur. But in the film industry, success that surprising and enormous demands more success; the beast must be fed. But as 'The Hangover Part II' and especially the new 'Hangover Part III' prove, it is very hard to make a good sequel to a truly original idea. 'Part II' went the rehash route, recycling the plot of the first movie so brazenly you almost had to admire its chutzpah. 'Part III' finally breaks with the formula a little (SPOILER ALERT: there is no hangover), but still doesn't produce anything even remotely worthy of the first film.
We've seen parents use unique methods to punish kids in the past -- through Facebook and by making them carry signs on busy streets, for example. But a Utah woman punished her stepdaughter in the most creative way yet by forcing her to wear ill-fitting thrift store clothing for being a bully.
Most of John Fogerty's new album, 'Wrote a Song for Everyone,' finds the former Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman looking back on his distinguished catalog. But he did make room for a couple of new songs -- and one of them, 'Mystic Highway,' now has its own video.

Bruce Kraig is a well known food historian. That isn't important to me, what is important is Bruce knows a lot about Hot Dogs, one of my favorite foods. When I saw he was open to be interviewed about his book and wanted to talk Hot Dogs.....I was there.
Jon Bon Jovi still isn't going on the record about the circumstances that led to Richie Sambora's abrupt departure from Bon Jovi's most recent tour, but he insists the door is wide open for Sambora's return.
It's been a strange Winter and Spring here in the Northland hasn't it? I had a bet the lake would not be totally open until May 15th. I lost the bet, it opened on the 14th. Most of the boaters figured the docks would be out perhaps as early as the 18th, but due to circumstances beyond our control (don't you just love when people say that), two of the three weren't installed until yesterday. Last weekend we had several boaters unload their boats from the trailer, push them out into the water, jump aboard and away they went.
The death of the Doors' founding member and keyboardist Ray Manzarek has sent ripples through the classic rock community, with many of his peers sharing their sadness and praising his contributions to music history on Twitter.
