94XPOSED WEDNESDAY APRIL 20TH
2002 – During a dispute in ownership over Nirvana’s recordings, Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic asked a Seattle court to prove Courtney Love was mentally unstable. She is mentally unstable but the courts didnt see that as a reason to take Nirvana's ownership away from the psycho.
NIRVANA - ALL APOLOGIES Five Finger Death Punch has set a record by having two albums certified Gold at the same time. The band simultaneously crossed the 500,000-sales mark for both their first album, The Way Of The Fist, and their second album, War Is The Answer. They are currently in the studio working on their third record. Meanwhile, 5FDP is fast approaching one million Facebook fans, and the band also announced that the first person to post a screen shot of Five Finger Death Punch’s Facebook page on 5FDP’s wall with one million Facebook fans will receive a Double-Gold plaque -- the very same one the band will receive for the achievement of having two gold albums. Furthermore, that fan will be thanked in the liner notes of the next album. -----------------------BREAK----------------------- Steven Tyler shared a touching video call with a dying Aerosmith fan just hours before he passed away, reveals the hospice foundation who arranged the moment. Lawrence Ori, 62, was recently an end-of-life patient in Chicago during the last stages of his battle against progressive supranuclear palsy, a disease which causes the deterioration and death of parts of the brain. Speaking through a laptop in a private ward, Tyler spoke to the Ori family for a short time, thanking them for giving him the opportunity to make a contribution. The singer complimented Lawrence on his Aerosmith shirt and logo tattoo, and when told the fan's favourite track was Dream On, he delivered the title line in a comic voice for him. Lawrence, unable to speak, widened his eyes and made happy noises while the brief interview took place.
AEROSMITH - LAST CHILD The Offspring will eventually get around to a new record. The band have booked some August and September dates in Europe, but it remains to be seen if they will have new music to preview. In a recent podcast, the band stated, “There’s still a lot to be done, but we hope to finish it up really quickly and I think we will as we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.” According to the podcast, the band are approximately 12 or 13 songs into the disc and trying to determine what will stick. ---------------------BREAK----------------------- Megadeth will revisit their classic “Peace Sells….But Who’s Buying?” album for a special 25th anniversary re-release. The set arrives on July 12th in digital, vinyl, CD, and box set versions, and includes previously unreleased mixes and high resolution audio for the remastered album and concert. Plus fans get an expanded 20-page booklet with photos and reproductions of Megadeth memorabilia. And speaking of peace, Dave Mustaine shares liner note duties on the release with onetime foe, Metallica’s Lars Ulrich. Mustaine and the members of Metallica have settled their difference in the last few years, and both bands will take part in the U.S. version of “The Big 4” this weekend in Indio, California.
