Pearl Jam Tour Announcement!
Pearl Jam is hitting the road again! The fellas are gearing up for a long summer of sloring over in Europe and decided to visit the Northeast and play a bunch of tunes:
- May 3rd Kansas City, MO Sprint Center
- May 4th St. Louis, MO Scottrade Center
- May 6th Columbus, OH Nationwide Arena
- May 7th Noblesville, IN Verizon Wireless Music Center
- May 9th Cleveland, OH Quicken Loans Arena
- May 10th Buffalo, NY HSBC Arena
- May 13th Bristow, VA Jiffy Lube Live
- May 15th Hartford, CT XL Center
- May 17th Boston, MA TD Garden
- May 20th New York, NY Madison Square Garden
- May 21st New York, NY Madison Square Garden
The band is touring to support “Backspacer” which received critical acclaim upon its release in the fall and quickly found its way into my CD library at home (where it stayed for months without being listened to). There were some good songs on it, but it marked the end of the 2-3 minute recording room jam sessions that made “Ten” timeless.
While this past CD didn’t really do it for me, seeing them live is an experience. It’s made me spoiled to go to another show and expect at least 2 hours of play minimum. If you can swing it, I suggest you see a show. It’s definitely worth the money. Just don’t wait to get tickets – they go faster than Captain Flintheart when he’s pleasuring his mistress.

Musicians are despicable people too. Thanks to Billboard.com’s Top 50 Musician’s Mugshots I now know that Yanni beat his wife and 1 out 5 famous musicians get arrested for drunk driving.
Can’t get enough? Revisit our Top Ten Awesome Mugshots list from last year.

Simple, eat a cup of gravy:
It worked for me, but it ended up dominated my stomach later that night. Nonetheless my dinner was bought for me and at quite a price…

The Worst Thing To Happen To Music In A Long Time
If your a regular TCM reader, you will know that I have expressed apprehension with the up in coming generation. Whether it be the fact that their lives are run by cell phones and facebook or that they are showing no respect to the loose jeans revolution veterans and rocking tight ciruclationless jeans, oh and don’t get me started on the stupid haircuts. Now I’ve found something much worse and apparently her name is Ke$ha (and yes the $ is suppose to be there).
When a generation of teenagers comes into adulthood they begin to grow resentful of the younger generations claiming they can’t understand their new interests, the fashion trends, the music etc. This is all true and obviously I am no different. When it comes to music though, sometimes I can see why a certain band will become popular or revered by the youth even if I deem them as god awful. Well this is where that line is drawn.

Celebrities That Look Like Other Celebrities: Part 6
I’m not the first one to make the claim that actress/musician Zooey Deschanel and musician/slut Katy Perry bear more than a passing resemblance to each other. In fact, this was by far the easiest celebrity match up i’ve done yet. And yes, those are in fact two different people in the pictures below. In both cases Deschanel is featured on the left and Perry is on the right.
The resemblance of these two hotties is unbelievable and borderline disturbing (well…disturbing in the best possible way of course). I just wanted to take the time to say thank you America, the Captains owe you one.
