McCartney on Letterman

Paul McCartney made an appearance on The Late Show, about 45 years after the Beatles had played in the same building on the Ed Sullivan Show. Paul and his band played on top of the marquee as fans lined the street below:

Chickenfoot is here

Chickenfoot is Sammy Hagar's new supergroup featuring Joe Satriani, Michael Anthony and Chad Smith. Their new album hits stores on June 7th. From the songs I've heard, the sound is a cross between Montrose and Led Zeppelin. Here are a couple of tracks:

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Steven Tyler and Led Zeppelin?

Steven Tyler has reportedly been jamming with Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham, triggering rumors that Steven will replace Robert Plant in Led Zep. I doubt it, but if you want to hear what he'd sound like, check out this video of Steven Tyler and Joe Perry playing with Led Zeppelin at a Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame performance:

New Guns N' Roses Song

Here's a fan-made video for the new G N' R song "Chinese Democracy". The video includes footage of guys who aren't in the band anymore and didn't play on this song, but it's pretty cool:

Shea Stadium: Historic Home of Drunks

An American landmark is being torn down, as Shea Stadium in New York will be demolished later this year. Shea Stadium has hosted some of the biggest events in sports and culture; Joe Namath and the Jets, the Beatles, four World Series, and Pope John Paul II are all part of Shea Stadium lore. But the greatest Shea Stadium event may have happened not on the field or on a stage, but in the stands. This is a pretty long video, but you just can't stop watching.

Guns N' Roses News

Guns N' Roses may release the "Chinese Democracy" album this year. No, really. This time it might actually happen. G N' R has struck a deal with Best Buy for the release of the album, which could come before the end of the year. Some sources say that November 25th is the most likely date.

If this happens, you get a free can of Dr. Pepper. Dr. Pepper issued a press release a few months ago, saying that they'll give every American a can of Dr. Pepper if Guns N' Roses releases "Chinese Democracy" before 2008 is over.

Here's one track from the album, released as part of the latest Guitar Hero video game - it's called "Shackler's Revenge":

AC/DC'S NEW VIDEO: "ROCK N' ROLL TRAIN"

Paul Newman has died of cancer at the age of 83. I don't know enough about acting to know if Newman was one of the best, but I'm a movie fan and Newman was my favorite actor. Not because he perfected strange dialects or took on challenging roles, but because he was believable in the roles he chose and he almost always chose smart, interesting scripts.

If I were to list my top ten movies, at least three of them would be Paul Newman films. You've probably seen two of them, "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" and "Cool Hand Luke". Here are a couple of great scenes from those movies:

The third Paul Newman flick that makes my top ten isn't one of his best known, although many of them are worthy - like "The Sting", "The Verdict", "Slapshot", and "The Hustler". It's a movie he did in 1994 called "Nobody's Fool".

"Nobody's Fool" is a laid-back story about an old man who's made nothing but wrong choices all his life, almost like Cool Hand Luke as a senior citizen. Newman is terrific. Although there's just one gunshot and the only car chase is an old pickup truck moving three miles an hour down a sidewalk, it's a true guy movie. It's hard to find, but if you've enjoyed Paul Newman movies, this one is worth looking for:

Sports Illustrated has a big story about Nebraska football. The article focuses on how Steve Pederson and Bill Callahan screwed everything up, and how Tom Osborne and Bo Pelini are going to fix it. Read the story at sportsillustrated.com. The picture came from a great college football site, everydayshouldbesaturday.com.

What Pulp Fiction would sound like if written by Shakespeare...

Jules: My pardon; did I break thy concentration?
Continue! Ah, but now thy tongue is still.
Allow me then to offer a response.
Describe Marsellus Wallace to me, pray.
Brett: What?
Jules: What country dost thou hail from?
Brett: What?
Jules: How passing strange, for I have traveled far,
And never have I heard tell of this What.
What language speak they in the land of What?
Brett: What?
Jules: The Queen's own English, base knave, dost thou speak it?
Brett: Aye!

Whatcha lookin' at, Dick? A picture from the White House website shows Dick Cheney on a fishing trip. Some people are claiming that you can see a naked woman in the reflection of his sunglasses. According to this article, the reflection "is of the vice president's hand on his fly rod." Then again, if you had a naked babe standing in front of you, your hand would be on your fly rod, too.

The plan was simple: 1. He jumps on her leg and breaks it. 2. He records it on his camera phone. 3. She files a fraudulent lawsuit, claiming a wall fell on her. 4. They both get rich...

On second thought, maybe step 2 was a bad idea. Read all about it here.

The husband of U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow was caught after paying for a prostitute. Her name is Alycia Martin, and she charges $225 per hour - quite a value, compared to the $1,000 an hour charged by Eliot Spitzer's prostitute, Ashley Dupre. You be the judge: for a thousand bucks, you could have this...

or you could have this...

and still have this left over...

Read the police report and see Alycia's ad at thesmokinggun.com.

Guess why this Ohio man was arrested:

A) He was the mastermind of an intricate plot to steal millions from a Cleveland bank.

B) He was involved in high-tech espionage, selling U.S. secrets to foreign governments.

C) He was having sex with a picnic table.

Larry King's not sexy? That can't be right.

The new rankings are out, and UNL makes the top 50. Not in football or basketball, but in looks. Pop Crunch has ranked the women of universities across the country. According to the story, "A lot of things went into these rankings, including the attractiveness of cheerleaders, the locations of the schools (the sunnier the better - hot girls gravitate towards warm weather), and the popularity of tailgating/drinking/partying." Find the full list, with photographic evidence, by clicking this link. Warning: there's no nudity, but if you'd get in trouble viewing our babe page at work, you might want to check this list out later.
