Boston have announced the first series of dates for their 2012 summer tour and band leader Tom Scholz has some fun with the belief that the end of the Mayan calendar this year may signal the end of the world. , "Just 10 months till the end!” Said Sholz about the Mayan Calendar. He added “Some people think at least, so why take a chance? If I was making a bucket list, it would definitely include going out one more time to play some Boston shows — before time runs out!" Obviouslyhe is just jokling, but I like the idea of having fun with it and calling your tour “The End of The World Tour.”
Boston – Piece of Mind Slash – Back From Cali
Although Slash's new album, Apocalyptic Love, is being billed as his second solo disc, the guitar great doesn't necessarily view it that way. As far as he's concerned, the new record (due May 22) was created by a full-on band. "I'm a band guy. Everything I touch I turn into a f---ing band," the former Guns N' Roses axeman told Rolling Stone. "I still have my name on the marquee and everything, but I'm just not a dictator, I don't want to rule anything. I like to hear what other people's ideas are and so on and so forth."

Fans of Jane's Addiction can expect a faster turnaround than the eight-year wait that preceded the band's latest album, The Great Escape Artist. Speaking to Billboard.com, drummer Stephen Perkins said the group has begun thinking about new music for their next disc. "We had a discussion on the flight home from the Super Bowl about, 'Okay, new music – do we visit it while we're touring? Do some stuff on the bus and in sound check and go that route, or do we wait 'til the tour's over and take a break and then go head-first?' We are talking about music, so that's important." Perkins went on to say the band has song ideas left over from The Great Escape Artist, but he prefers to start fresh.
