Dakota Fanning Sings Cherry Bomb

March 11, 2010

This is a music video/movie montage from The Runaways movie starring Dakata Fanning and Kristen Stewart. I’m guessing it’s Dakota singing this because it’s oviously a different recording than the original . I have to admit, it sounds pretty good. If you listen to Good Clean Fun then you may have heard Jasper, me, Joe Klein and several friends re-enact the movie from the screenplay. All of the clips they show in the movie pretty much confirm that we in fact read the real screenplay. You see Cheri at the talent show doing a David Bowie song, Cheri auditioning for The Runaways, etc.
When we read the screenplay, both Jasper and I thought it was going to be cheesy and in the vein of Histeria: The Def Leppard Story. I still think that but I have to admit that I am really looking forward to seeing the movie. The one thing that kind of bugged me about the movie is that they went from the first album to them breaking up in about 3 pages. I realize they have to take liberties for the movie but for hardcore Joan/Runaways fans, it’s a little bit of a letdown.

Watch the clip below:

Cheap Trick’s Rick Nielson – “The Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Would Be Lucky To Have Us”

March 8, 2010

The fact that Cheap Trick is not in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is proof that it’s a joke but honestly, I’m glad they are not. It makes me feel like they only belong to the cool kids, and that would make me a cool kid.

Here is them playing SIRIUS XM Artist Confidential at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City.

Foxy Shazam To Premiere Album On Chatroulette.com

March 8, 2010

A message from Foxy Shazam:

hello, you guys know about www.ChatRoulette.com? it’s this underground social website thing that connects strangers around the world through their webcams.  whoever uses it can meet thousands of people everyday! It goes from kittens playing one second and then amateur porn the next. It can get  pretty gross, yet adorable.

So that got us thinking- If this site is nothing but a place for people trying to get lucky, then lets put a little Foxy in their lives! So, for one week, starting Monday, March 8th, our new album will stream in its entirety, letting you guys hear our self-titled album a month before it hits stores on April 13th. Try to get lucky and land on the Foxy Shazam webcam and you’ll get an advance listen to the new record, but the only way to hear it is to spin the virtual wheel and get lucky.  Good luck!

Don’t want to spin the wheel in fear of perverts? Then check out our digital and physical pre-order at http://foxyshazam.com on Tuesday, March 9th.  When you pre-order you’ll get two tracks- ”Wanna Be Angel” and “Unstoppable.”  Also, look out for Yahoo Music to be premiering our new music video for “Oh Lord” on Wednesday, March 17th!!!

bye

Ginger Releases New Solo Song on Youtube

March 2, 2010

Ginger releases a new solo song called “Patience and Gratitude” as a video exclusively on Youtube.

It is a mostly intstrumental song except for the chorus which contains the lyrics
“All of the will in the world will come to you someday
And all the love in the world will come to you someday”

The video features images of ducks in a park, nice nature shots and other pleasant images. It is a little like something from The Secret which I’m pretty sure is working quite well for Ginger.

I really like the song a lot. It is uplifting and if you are having a crappy day, watch this. I think it may brighten it.

Ginger is getting ready to go on tour as guitarist for the great Michael Monroe. Tour dates after the video below:
