Joe Jackson went on Larry King Live last night to discuss the charges against Dr. Conrad Murray, now released on $75,000 bail . "I didn't like those charges. He got off too easy," the Jackson patriarch told King, adding that he believes his son's death involved "other people" besides Murray, who he says is simply "the fall guy." Is Michael Jackson the new JFK? Watch the vid below to hear Joe's paranoid ramblings: According to Joe Jackson, Murray did not act alone. "There's other people involved with [...]
Holy mother of fat rolls, Batman! Kevin Federline was not kidding when he said he needed to lose some weight. This boy could stand to lose an Olsen twin and still be alright. K-Fed showed off the poundage on the premiere of " Celebrity Fit Club " as he modeled the bulge in camouflage shorts. The poses that he makes are the funniest. Like he could pass a football? It looks like the only thing he's [...]

The full track listing for Jason Derulo's self-titled debut album (out March 2) has been revealed, and so have a few surprises. Many of the hip-pop singer's surfaced tracks we assumed to be on the album ended up not making the final cut, and at only nine songs long, the LP seems fairly on the short side. (Especially considering Jason's claim that he wrote over 300 songs in the studio with producer J.R. Rotem.) Then again, Michael Jackson's Thriller only had nine songs, so as long as those nine are beyond awesome , Jason doesn't [...]
Michael Jackson 's two eldest children are scheduled to take the stage this weekend to accept the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award for their father, Michael Jackson. It would be the first public appearance for Prince Michael, 12, and Paris, 11, since their dramatic appearance at the memorial service 12 days after their father's death. Two sources close to the family said the youngest, 7-year-old Blanket, was not expected to appear, although they suggested that might change. [...]

I entered this world on June 18, 1978 to a first-time mother and father who had just wrapped up their senior year of college. Two relatively green and excited kids took the plunge and married just before my birth, and entered their lives together with only the earnest naivety young love affords. I still occasionally flip through the old photo albums from the early part of their courtship, Dad a bonafide hippie fraternity boy, and Mom a beautiful and intelligent early graduate. Those grainy photos, perhaps, serve as the only communicators of the entire mid 1970's cultural landscape for me. [...]
Exploring the boundaries of folk is a challenge these days, not hardly because the word "folk" is so often abused by a growing bevy of slash-using promotors and artists trying to lay claim to the term and, by proxy, to the authenticity of its community and heritage - even as they offer up music which provides little in the way of respite or even recognizable folk characteristics for the weary folkophile. Oh, sure, there's elements of folk music in much of what passes by the modern blogwatcher. The influence of [...]
You may remember that a while ago I blogged about Mustard Pimp compiling an astonishing 12 hour mix - well the sneaky French duo have now topped that with an epic 24 hour compilation mix made up of nearly every genre going! It's all in the honour of the new series of 24 which is about to start on Sky. I really didn't follow the last series, I tried but it's hard work. Seriously, how many times does Jack need to save the world? Jean Claude Van Damme wouldn't have had these issues, he'd simply kick [...]

Our crazy friends from France have done it again. This time they outdone anything we could ever think of. Mustard Pimp goes in the footstep of the popular tv-show 24 and produces a 24 h mixtape.

Welcome back to Adventures in Top 40, in which this blogger wanders into the dangerous lands of radio. This week, we wandered onto the internet stream of my home base's Top 40 Station, Philadelphia's Q102 (WIOQ-FM). I happened to come across the station this afternoon during the latter part of "On Air with Ryan Seacrest", making this particular expedition all the more treacherous. If you thought I got off pretty light last week, you were right. Let's get started. Lady Gaga - Bad Romance [ iTunes ] ( YSI [...]

One of the first big countdowns I did on this blog was the Millennium Project, which higlighted my top 100 albums of the new millennium (at the time, and only up to the middle of 2006). Now that the decade's over, I can do something a little more comprehensive. So, next week I will be counting down my top 100 songs of the 00's. The list will include both singles and album tracks, but primarily singles because...well, they're usually better. Since this is my blog, the criteria will be entirely personal. If you've been a longtime reader, you [...]
The new year has started out really cold but fortunately there are so many hot shows to keep you warm. On Thursday, Kay Hanley (in town for the Hot Stove Cool Music show) is doing a gig at the Lizard Lounge. It's such a small room, not certain if there are still tix available or not. Also on Thursday, the Gobshites start their January residency at the Burren (songs about drinkin' should warm ya up!). Friday brings a strong local rock show to the Middle East with Ketman, Reverse and Bacchus Knife. Strokes guy, Julian Casablancas is at the Paradise. [...]
![[DECADEnce] The Top 50 Movies of the 00s](http://cache.elbo.ws/posts/2241170_lg.jpg)
DECADEnce continues this week with my list of the Top 50 Movies of the 00s. There were quite a large number of high quality films released in the past decade, and choosing only 50 to fill out this list was actually somewhat tough. The good news is that I'm very happy with this final product, and if you're a movie fan like I am, I hope you'll agree with me. I haven't bothered to count how many films I see each year, let alone across an entire decade, but I can promise you that with my average of 5 movies [...]
Good mornin'! Hope you've all recovered from your People's Choice Award hangovers (one part vodka, two parts indifference). Let's get to the mix!
