Yes, I know you've been waiting for this... Here is the second installment of the reincarnated legendary Wicked Week series. Five days, five nouns -- and the most ridiculous and wicked news reports from the last several months are waiting for you! And remember, don't take it too serious.
Monday: Aging
How many different titles ever given to Axl you guys remember? He's been named the most selfish person on Earth by some peopele, while the others' exalted him to God... He was called simply a dick and asshole (by his former bandmate Steven Adler), but it can't be compared to his shiny new title --
The Coolest Old Man -- it was the first time when Rose topped poll of the "coolest old people."
The fact that he hasn't been seen for a long, long time, and that Guns N' Roses haven't released fresh material in more than ten years didn't embarrass teenage readers of Ellegirl magazine. According to the results of its latest poll (this is 10,000 girls worldwide, with about 4,000 of them in U.S.), Rose -- now 43 -- is one of the world's coolest old people. Well, he is only the second in the named survey actually. The first place belongs to "grandparents"...
Tuesday: Excitation
There is no need to think hard to understand that an artist who performs onstage gets disturbed -- the creative work of any singer and musician implies the excitation. But when the lead singer of Disturbed (the band) says he experiences sexual stimulation during presenting on stage, you involuntarily lose in thoughts...
In the latest issue of Sweden's premiere metal magazine Close-Up, David Draiman confessed that he gets "cocky" while performing. "Sometimes I actually get an erection when I perform on stage," he told the magazine. "Er, you get a hard-on when you sing?" the interviewer asked. "I'm an erotically charged person," Draiman replied. "The atmosphere around me, all the energy that I get from the crowd and the beautiful women that I make eye contact with on stage all contribute to that kind of blood-rush."
Wednesday: Perversion
Gloomy guys from Children Of Bodom turned out to be rather funny fellows earlier this year -- the band recorded a cover version of Britney Spears' "Oops I Did It Again" as the b-side track on the "In Your Face" single.
The band's bassist Henkka Blacksmith later confessed that they wanted that "shocking" sort of reaction, "like people maybe laughing and just being shocked, to make people ask, 'What the f--k is this?' That's why we did [the cover]." When asked about if anyone in the band is actually a fan of the original, Henkka replied queerly: "Not really, no. Of course, we know the song, and we listen to it sometimes just for a laugh, but we're not serious fans of Britney." Sorry man, it doesn't sound earnestly at all!
Thursday: Celibacy
Here's another form of perversion, called "celibacy". Follower of meditation, consuming renunciation of copulating, Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo thinks it had a positive effect on the band's latest album "Make Believe". The singer, who gave up sex in 2003, said during an AOL session: "I decided to try celibacy because I heard it would help the meditation, and I tried meditation because I heard it would help with the music. So, it all really comes back to the music."
I'm not so sure that celibacy made his music better, but he's quite certain on that: "Listen to 'Make Believe' and compare it to the previous album, 'Maladroit'. I know I can hear a difference in my singing. My voice just sounds much more sensitive and dynamic now. I also notice a difference in the lyrics. I'm much more open and communicative about my emotions now."
Friday: Reality
There are a lot of things that could shock our predecessors, say automobiles at the time when dinosaurs were still alive and kicking, or computers when the most advanced device was a hammer made out of a rock, or say an artist buying his own album before its release thru online auction... sounds like a 4th part of "Back To The Future," right?
This is what happened recently, when The Darkness frontman Justin Hawkins paid £350 on eBay for a copy of the band's new album "One Way Ticket To Hell... And Back", due on 28 November. It was one of those promo CDs sent out to a couple journalists to get them reviews in their magazines. Of course the guilty will be found (each promo copy has a unique ID), but this is just another vivid illustration of disadvantages of information accessibility's growth and imperfection of record companies'. And these companies are closing P2P services each day, while their own security policies sucks big time!
Hawkins rocks, UG rocks, anything else sucks. The End.
