Broken Hallelujah

Good Morning... or is it?



I pulled my old desk fan out of storage and placed it on my desk yesterday. That's a good sign. No. Not hot flashes, the coming Spring.

The Donnas were added to the lineup of 2003's Lollapalooza. The band joins Jane's Addiction, Incubus, Queens Of The Stone Age, Audioslave, Jurassic 5, and others. Jane's Addiction frontman and Lollapalooza founder Perry Farrell said in a statement: "I bought a pair of silk pajamas for the road because we're going to have a Lollapajama party with the Donnas." Or they could braid each other's hair. [via: mi2n.]



A three-CD collection of Led Zeppelin concert recordings titled How the West Was Won is tentatively scheduled for a May 27 release. A companion two-DVD set also is expected around that date. In other news, drummer Michael Lee -- who previously has played with Zeppelin's Robert Plant and Jimmy Page -- has been tapped to play on Thin Lizzy's upcoming spring tour. There's a band I've not thought about in some time. I really liked them in the mid-seventies. [via: blabbermouth]



Ozzy and Sharon hosting a party at their home March 19 to raise money for Elton John's AIDS Foundation and Sharon's Colon Cancer foundation. Season No. 3 is slated to premiere June 10. But, does anyone care anymore?

My archives and my permalink's sure are giving me a hard time. Truthfully, it's because I'm a dumbass and don't know what I'm doing. This looks like a job for Bailey's on the rocks. Then I'll revisit that coding hell. I remember a simpler time when Blogger did all the work for me. Now, I had to go and get my own website and it's turning into a DIY nightmare. But it's worth it. It's so worth it when you finally make it work. If that ever happens, I'll let you know.



I was proud that students of Asheville High and TC Roberson High {here in NC} walked out yesterday in protest of possible war with Iraq. They're getting a first hand look at what collective voices going against the administration will do. They're also getting various suspensions for it, though. The students interviewed said it was worth it.
