* The Arctic Monkeys are going on tooouuuuur! Wooooo! I mean, Humbug.
* Queen guitarist Brian May was nearly killed okay fine run over last week-ish — by Roger Taylor’s drum kit. Goes to show you never know who your friends are…
* Can you believe that a whole bunch of European copies of the latest Dinosaur Jr. album have been recalled because they’re too LOUD? What kind of a cruel world is this?
* If this is a joke, it’s way too soon: Michael Jackson’s dad, Joe Jackson, wants MJ’s three kids, who are 7, 11, and 12 years old, to become the new Jackson 3. Seriously?
* In other news, or maybe not so much, Billy Corgan gets pretentious about keeping the Smashing Pumpkins name on his new music.

* How’s this for the big leagues: Joel Plaskett has been picked to open for Paul McCartney’s Halifax show on July 11th. Wowzers!

* So Ashton beat CNN to a million Twitter followers on Friday… but now Spencer Pratt from The Hills has stepped up as challenger for Round Two: most new followers in 30 days. Right. I wish they would just pull out Lightsabers and settle this thing Old School already.
* SPEAKING OF Spencer Pratt… turns out he and Heidi Montag are getting married again. Oh happiness! Oh joy! Oh… well-timed publicity?
* Grey’s Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo is preggers! Nothing to worry about, though: I hear she’s a great doctor…
* Jane’s Addiction’s first tour in 18 years hasn’t even started and they’re fighting amongst themselves. What do you do when not even Trent Reznor can help patch things up?
* Steal This Drummer!? System of a Down’s drummer John Dolmayan has auditioned to fill Jimmy Chamberlin’s spot in the Smashing Pumpkins. The jury is still out on whether the world needs another pseudo-supergroup. Didn’t Velvet Revolver not go so well?
