Rocket Rocker Newz for 2/16

Its Fat Tuesday, which means you better live it up before you give it up! Here's your latest in Rocket Rocker Newz.......


The White Stripes Are Pissed.......
The Air Force Reserve is feeling the wrath of the White Stripes! Apparently the group is having a fit over the Air Force Reserve's Superbowl Commercial. They're claiming the Air Force did an unauthorized re-recording of their song "Fell in Love With a Girl" for the ad. The White Stripes posted a video of its song alongside a link to the Air Force Reserve commercial on their website. And of course, the Stripes went on to put their feet in their mouths by stating that "they don't want anyone to think that they encourage recruitment during a war they don't support."



Coheed and Cambria's New Single.........

Coheed and Cambria's new single, "The Broken" is being streamed at their homepage. This is their first single to be released to the public in over two years. Has it really been that long??






While We Wait For Blink 182....They'll Be Working on Solo Projects.......

Well, while we bite our nails in anticipation of a new Blink 182 album, it seems the group is more focused on their own solo projects.Travis Barker has recruited some big names for his forthcoming solo album.The original announced guests made it sound like a hip-hop heavy effort with the likes of Lil Wayne, RZA and The Game making appearances but Barker now says that fans can expect an ecletic mix of music and announced an additional guest singer. "I'm not singing or being an MC or anything," the Blink-182 drummer tells Spinner. He goes on to talk about the special guests for the album, "I'm rounding it out right now," he said. "I just love music. The more I can be around it the better, so with my album it's no one genre. It goes from everything from punk rock to hip-hop to some electro stuff on there to a metal song with Corey Taylor from Slipknot. It's been really fun and interesting up till now."
 Rob Zombie Tops Chart and Heads Out On Tour...... 
Rob Zombie's album Hellbilly Deluxe 2 has debuted at no 8 on the Billboard Top 200 Album chart with upwards of 48,500 units sold in its first week of release. The album also takes the top spot on the Hard Music chart, arriving at #1.Rob Zombie and crew will soon be hitting the road to co-headline this year's Mayhem Festival kicking off in San Bernadino, CA at the San Manuel Ampitheater on Saturday, July 10th (please see below for tour dates). And yes, they'll be hitting the Journal Pavilion in Albuquerque July 17th, so get your panties untwisted already!!!
In other Rob Zombie news, the  filmmaker will make his television directorial debut with an episode of CBS' highly-rated show CSI: Miami set to air on Monday, March 1st at 10:00PM, EST. Jeez, is there anything this guy can't do????
 Can This Pickle Get More Fans Than Nickelback???? 
Chad Kroeger likes pickles. He's written songs about them and even tried to eat one for a case of beer at one time. So it's only appropriate that a bored person would start a Facebook page called "Can this pickle get more fans than Nickleback [sic]?"Nickelback currently have about 1,400,000 fans on Facebook, but the pickle is closing in on that in a big way, since it already has about 960,000 fans. This is the latest "can this food get more fans than" Facebook pages.



Axl Rose Flips The F**k Out!!! I've been waiting for this for a while.... 
Things got heated on MyGNRForum.com last week when Guns N'Roses vocalist Axl Rose posted under the user name 'Dexter'. Axl lashed out at one of the forum moderators (and since relived of her duties) named 'Madison' with a profanity laced tirade. At issue is the accusation that someone in the Guns N'Roses camp banned fans from wearing Slash gear inside the Winnipeg, Manitoba show as first reported by TMZ.com. Axl posted, "What the f**k do you know? That's right! You don't know jack f**king sh*t you f**king ignorant, know it all, f**king deluded, misguided, self important, self righteous, pious, small minded, clueless, loud mouthed, arrogant c**t. "No one needs your opinions n' having to deal with your constant abuse of privileges or the miniscule amount of power you've had here you wield like an angry, lesbian, wannabe, high school parking lot rent-a-cop always mouthing off like you're some kind of authority which you're far from. I have to say it saddens me you continue to babble your horsesh*t to unsuspecting fans n' any names n' numbers you have are of people like you who try n' hurt others to promote themselves at their expense. That's the only real thing you got bitch."

Wow Axl, if I didn't love you before, I sure as hell do now!!!!
