Fans Knocks Over Robert Plant
(hennemusic) Robert Plant was knocked over when a fan jumped onstage during a concert in Buenos Aires last week.

Plant, currently in the middle of a South American tour with The Sensational Space Shifters, played two shows at Estadio Luna Park in Buenos Aires.

During the closing of the November 1 concert, Robert finished Led Zeppelin's "Rock & Roll" and was saying goodnight to the audience when a fan jumped onstage and ran towards the singer; Plant ducked to miss him, was bumped from behind by security and fell to the stage while the crew tackled the intruder.

Plant got up and brushed himself off, and said "Easy, easy" to the security crew as they removed the fan from the stage. Watch video of the incident here.

Phil Anselmo Teams With Warbeast For New Album
Pantera, Superjoint Ritual and Down frontman Philip Anselmo is teaming up with Warbeast to release a new split album entitled War of the Gargantuas. Housecore Records sent out these details:

The split now has an official release date of January 8, 2012 and will include two songs from each artist. This album serves as the first release of any solo work by Philip Anselmo during the span of his nearly 30-year legacy. Also, the two Warbeast tracks on the split feature former bassist Alan Bovee before his amicable departure from the band. Since then, Dre Karst has joined on bass.

"This split is a glimpse into the future of both my solo project and ultimate thrash metallers Warbeast. The title of the split is War of The Gargantuas and it is fitting on many levels because of our combined love for the 60's Japanese film of the same name, the power of our combined musical output(s) and our humorous affection that plays out within each of our "Gargantuan" personalities," states Philip Anselmo. "Both Warbeast and myself have full length LP's that will be released shortly after this is released, but this split is unique musically. It is a time capsule; a loud pause 'til we both release our full length products. Enjoy the destruction of music!" more on this story

Axl Rose Addresses Rock Hall Induction and The State of Music Industry
Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose sat down with USA Today late last month for a rare interview that covered a lot of topics including the state of the music industry, his skipping the Rock Hall induction and the odds of a truce with his former Guns N' Roses bandmates. Below are excerpts from that conversation.

The music industry now: "It's horrible. It has nothing to do with music. I'm not trying to be bitter or cynical, but it's an ugly business. People want you to care about them or their lives, their kids, but in the end, you're just a commodity. I don't feel that way about this Guns lineup. I'm not trying to use them. I have to treat it like a business, but I don't want to make decisions that are detrimental to anyone's welfare."

Skipping the 2012 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction: "It wasn't painful to not be there. It was a beating to deal with all the pressure of feeling I was supposed to be there and deciding what to do. I try to be respectful about getting an honor or recognition, but I don't really know what the Rock Hall actually is. In my experience with the people who run it, I don't see it having to do with anything other than them making money."

The odds of a Guns truce: "I feel that ball's not in my court. I'm surviving this war, not the one who created this war." Read the full interview here.

Courtney Love Has No Plans For Nirvana Musical
Sam Lufti was apparently wrong. Courtney Love says there are no plans to create a Nirvana musical.

Kirk Cobain's widow Love dismissed the reports that she was planning on creating a musical based on the music of her late husband, according to the Guardian.

"There will be no musical," she told the Observer. "Sometimes it's best just to leave things alone."

She also addressed the commercial exploitation of Cobain's legacy, "I said yes once – to Baz Luhrmann to use eight seconds of Smells Like Teen Spirit in Moulin Rouge. But he wasn't allowed to use it in the marketing. I didn't get the part in the film. I was so pissed off I made up the term to 'Baz' somebody." Read the Guardian Report here.

Brian May Born Free With Kerry Ellis
(Gibson) Queen legend Brian May has released his rendition of the Oscar-winning song "Born Free" in collaboration with West End and Broadway star Kerry Ellis, with proceeds of the single going to international wildlife charity the Born Free Foundation.

Written by John Barry and Don Black, the song was originally recorded by Matt Monro in 1966 as the theme to the film of the same name, about the release of an orphaned lioness back into the wild.

The foundation was established by the stars of the film, Virginia McKenna OBE and Bill Travers, which told the story of George and Joy Adamson's successful release of Elsa, an orphaned lioness, to the wild. Inspired by their experiences in Kenya, Virginia and Bill went on to establish the Born Free Foundation. more on this story

Classic Doors Concert Tops The DVD Charts
(hennemusic) "The Doors: Live At The Bowl '68" - featuring the legendary band in concert at The Hollywood Bowl on July 5, 1968 – has debuted at #1 in both the US and Canada.

For the first time, the film from the historic performance has been painstakingly restored using the original camera negatives and the audio has been remixed and mastered from original multi-tracks by the group's engineer Bruce Botnick. This new restoration offers a stunning visual upgrade from earlier versions and will give fans the closest experience to being there live along side Jim Morrison, John Densmore, Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek.

"The Doors: Live At The Bowl '68" includes three previously unreleased tracks from the performance. Technical issues with the recording of "Hello, I Love You," "The WASP (Texas Radio And The Big Beat)," and "Spanish Caravan" prevented them from being released in the past. Now, through meticulous restoration of the audio, all three are included, marking the first time the concert has been available in its entirety. more on this story

Singled Out: Cherri Bomb's Too Many Faces
Today rising rockers Cherri Bomb tell us about their new single "Too Many Faces" from their debut album "This Is The End of Control". Here is the story:

We wrote "Too Many Faces" when we started realizing what our friends really thought about us. It was around the same time when we decided to take the band to the next level, focusing our lives around playing music together.

So many people, who never looked our way before, started coming up to us to try to spark a friendship. People we'd been friends with for years decided that we were out of our minds to dedicate so much time to writing and playing that they just stopped talking to us cold. Some people started rumors. Some people lied about being our best friends.

It was a confusing time because all we had done was decide to follow what our hearts were telling us to do, and everyone's faces started changing before our eyes. You don't really know who your friends are until you're faced with walking through fire together – it was an incredible lesson.

So, one day we're in the studio, we just started playing and "Too Many Faces" came out. We think a lot of people can relate to the emotion of thinking you know someone inside and out and then the kick in the gut when you realize you really didn't know that person at all.

We felt it could be an anthemic song. A lot of people can relate to a friend turning on you for reasons you didn't expect.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album (the official video is expected to be released today and should be posted here.

Aerosmith's Something Features Joe Perry on Lead Vocals
(hennemusic) Aerosmith continue to roll out new tracks from their forthcoming album, "Music From Another Dimension," due out today.

Up next is "Something," which features guitarist Joe Perry on lead vocal and singer Steven Tyler on drums.

"I wrote 'Something' a long time ago, back when there was a whole other batch of people around us: lawyers, managers that I was really pissed off at," Perry tells Rolling Stone. "It's a short bit of angst and pissed-off-ness about these people that ripped us off forever. The funny thing is that 20 years later, there's a whole new batch of people I'm pissed off at. The lyrics still work." more on this story
