Panic At The Disco Imposters On Facebook

Hey Everyone!

Man, what is it with people pulling these stunts? Is it fun to pretend to be a famous person and look like a total creep when you get caught? I dont understand...

Panic At The Disco took to the web today to dispel rumors of facebook accounts and bogus music video shoots. According to the brief but VERY important release, the guys were notified of several fake internet social networking profiles which advertised that the band would be shooting a new video in New Hampshire and were looking for some girls to give them tours of the city. They are pleading with fans to ignore these fake requests for their own safety as they have no intentions of being in the New Hampshire area in the near future.

Again, all I have to say is MAN THAT IS SO CREEPY! I mean come on, how many bands advertise that they could use some female tour guides while in town? Their fan base is generally young, so no way would I believe they'd ask that... Girls, a note of caution: any band that suggests something like that is either being hacked, or they are Motley Crue back in the day haha. Either way, not a good plan! I can only imagine what kind of place these creeps are telling the 13yr old fans to meet them...Please, be careful. Do not agree to these kinds of requests even if its posted on an official looking site. I mean, facebook isn't exactly safer than Myspace... You can pretend to be whoever you want, keep that in mind.

Play safe everyone, and kudos to Panic for the press release to fans!

Butch Walker Streams New Album Online

Hey Everyone!

Just a quick note for all the Butch Walker fans out there. He and his current band, The Black Widows, have just posted the new album for full streaming online! Thats right, you can check out the full album by clicking HERE. Eleven new tracks in all, and the Itunes purchases will be available with a few rare tracks and B-Sides.

 

There are also a few interesting packages available for purchase... specifically package four. For a mere $25,000USD, you can "spend a weekend in Butch's spare bedroom, collaborating on a song that will appear on his new album and play the song live on stage together during his next tour"... all that and a signed limited edition vinyl + more... not bad haha. If anyone has a spare $25,000 lying around this might be a cool investment (although I really believe this is a huge joke haha) Just a point though, if you click "buy now" it takes you to an email with the subject "inquire about $25k pre-order".

So check out the new album and see what you think!

Rock On!

Vampire Weekend Streams Upcoming Album

Hey Everyone!

As promised, I'm back! Did you miss me? Probably not all that much, but its alright. I enjoyed my break and now that school is back in session, its time to get back into blogging. Such a stress relief, I highly recommend it for anyone in need! Anyways, back to the post!

A few days ago, band to watch Vampire Weekend began streaming their upcoming album "Contra" on their myspace. If you aren't familiar with them yet, get ready to be. This band is being noted by some of the best critics and magazines out there as one about to hit it big. Already quite popular in the indie scene, this band is going to be huge. I can pretty much promise you that. Its refreshing, its interesting and its amazing. So if you haven't had a chance to check them out yet, definitely do that. Keep your eyes peeled, its only a matter of time after the album's release that they will take off with full force!

Some of my picks: Holiday, Taxi Cab, Run, Giving Up The Gun

Rock On!
