		<title>Neil Young Confirms Voodoo Festival and Red Rocks Performances</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As if recording a cranked-up collection of American folk standards with Crazy Horse wasn&#8217;t enough activity for one year, Neil Young is also getting ready to strap on his guitar, turn the amps up, and hit the road for a steadily expanding series of dates &#8212; including appearances at Red Rocks, the Voodoo Fest, and Outside Lands. The fun starts in August, when Neil &#8212; presumably with Crazy Horse in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jack Russell of Great White Involved in Drunken Boat Accident</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Great White singer Jack Russell was involved in a drunken boat crash recently, but as the now-sober rocker proudly explains, he wasn&#8217;t the one causing the damage, and luckily nobody got hurt very badly. As the singer, currently leading a version of his former band under the name Jack Russell&#8217;s Great White, recounts to Metal Sludge, &#8220;My wife Heather and I were sitting on the couch yesterday evening when we [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pearl Jam Bassist Pays Tribute to Duck Dunn</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re still getting more tributes to Booker T. and the MGs bassist Donald &#8220;Duck&#8221; Dunn, who passed away Sunday morning at the age of 70. The latest one comes from Pearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament, who, in 2007, put Dunn&#8217;s name into the neck of one of his basses.

		<title>Paul McCartney Saved Mark Ronson from Drowning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In addition to being known as a brilliant singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Paul McCartney&#8216;s reputation as an all-around nice guy has been well-earned through the years. If he was less modest, he&#8217;d also be able to add the word &#8220;hero&#8221; to his CV, as it was recently revealed that, many years ago, he saved future producer Mark Ronson from drowning in Long Island Sound. In an interview with Britain&#8217;s Live [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Beatles Apple Records Promotional Belt Sells For Fab Price</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Beatles&#8216; Apple Records logo is nearly as iconic as the band it represents. When this rare 1968 promotional belt appeared on eBay, it sold just shy of $1,500. That’s a pretty penny to pay for an old leather belt, but try telling that to a Beatles collector. Licensed by Apple Records Corp in London, England, the seller stresses that this is not a post-‘70s after-market version; this one is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Motley Crue&#039;s &#039;Girls, Girls, Girls&#039; Reaches 25th Anniversary</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The ‘80s were an equally decadent and dangerous time for Motley Crue. But when the band emerged in 1987 with ‘Girls Girls, Girls,’ something was different. Ruling the notorious Sunset Strip, the glam rockers rose to fame after releasing ‘Too Fast for Love,’ (1981) ‘Shout at the Devil’ (1983) and ‘Theatre of Pain’  (1985)&#8211; all within a four year period. But with &#8216;Girls&#8217; came a head-to-toe image transformation: Vince Neil, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tom Cruise, &#039;Pour Some Sugar on Me&#039; (From &#039;Rock of Ages&#039;) &#8211; Song Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The idea of turning an &#8217;80s anthem like Def Leppard&#8216;s &#8216;Pour Some Sugar on Me&#8217; into a show tune isn&#8217;t going to sit well with many formerly Aquanetted, double-socked, Jordache-jean wearing rock fans. Tom Cruise is challenged with turning Joe Elliott&#8217;s vocal performance into something unique and memorable. He gives up early, opting for a karaoke performance that&#8217;s too good to laugh at, but not quite good enough to want [...]]]></description>
