30 Seconds to Mars Cover Lady GaGa's "Bad Romance"

I am not a fan of Lady GaGa. I think she is wasting the talent she has on pop crap which is disheartening. Disheartening that she isn't true to what she has been blessed with. Disheartening that if she was she probably wouldn't be as successful as she is now because what she is doing now (Outrageous outfits and sticky pop beats) is what the mass of the population wants. Sad. That said, her visuals are pretty cool. Make-up is always amazing. And her lyrics when taken out of the synth crap context are pretty poignant.

Imagine my surprise this Monday morning when I see Shannon and Tomo talk about their "Bad Romance" cover on the BBC.

Verdict: I LOVE IT!

But I love it because they put their touch on it. This version is ALL 30 Seconds to Mars. Jared's voice. Tomo's guitar. Shannon's drumming. They made the song affecting. One of the many reasons I adore this band intensely.

A little "This Is War" for ya too:


Counting down the days until I see my homies in Omaha on May 6th. If you live there and haven't gotten your tickets -- DO IT NOW!

Happy Monday.

Drummer Bob Bryar Out Of My Chemical Romance

Image Via Internet

It feels like deja vu hearing this news. Bob Bryar, drummer, is no longer part of My Chemical Romance.

The band issued this statement on their website:

"As of 4 weeks ago, My Chemical Romance and Bob Bryar parted ways. This was a painful decision for all of us to make and was not taken lightly. We wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors and expect you all to do the same."

BOOOOO!!!!!

I first met Bob while he was doing sound for The Used on Warped Tour in 2003 and he was one of the coolest blokes. When MCR "parted ways" with their first drummer (Matt Pelissier) and hired Bob I was incredibly stoked for him. Despite not having played drums since his jazz and marching band days in high school, he got right back in the saddle and did amazing. Which to me is the mark of an incredible talent.

I am sure with his background in sound, engineering and drumming he will land on his feet and go on to do even more awesome things.

Jane's Addiction Bassist Eric Avery Quits Band - Duff McKagan To Take His Place

VIA SPIN MAGAZINE:

Jane's Addiction bassist Eric Avery has quit the band -- and the alt-rock mainstays have already announced the hired gun set to fill his shoes: former Guns N' Roses low-ender Duff McKagan.

Avery, who co-founded Jane's in 1985 and rejoined the band in 2008 for their first reunion since splitting in 1991, announced his departure via Twitter early Monday morning after the quartet wrapped their world tour in Australia.

"That's it," he wrote. "With equal parts regret and relief, the Jane's Addiction experiment is at an end."
