Johnny Cash (born J. R. Cash; February 26, 1932 - September 12, 2003) was aGrammy Award-winning American country singer-songwriter. Cash is widely considered to be one of the most influential American musicians of the 20th century. Cash was known for his deep, distinctive bass-baritone voice, the boom-chick-a-boom or "freight train" sound of his Tennessee Three backing band, his demeanor, and his dark clothing, which earned him the nickname "The Man in Black." He traditio... MORE

Ever made the same mix for seven people? This happened to me with a Christmas mix I decided to send out as a card one year. But once I got to mix six, iTunes revolted saying I couldn't make another mix using Run DMC's "Christmas Is," a song I had purchased on the site. Bummer, considering it really was a nice segue to Brenda Lee's "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree." I thought to myself, "What the heck!" iTunes is controlling my mix-making powers! (Yeah, I was pissed.) B... MORE

This song is one of the songs they play pretty much every night at the diner/bar I work at here in Spokane. The best thing is that pretty much everyone knows the words to this song, so everyone in the building is singing along. It sort of restores my faith in music and people, seeing everyone having a good time rocking out to classic Green Day. No one cares that they're "mainstream" and no one cares whether or not they "sold out". Everyone just loves it and loves Green Day... MORE

Green Day have pretty much taken Bono’s role in world domination. Not only did they appear on the season finale of American Idol this past Wednesday, helping their single and John Lennon cover “Working Class Hero” jump eleven spots to Number Fourteen on the Modern Rock chart. But now, Green Day have recorded the theme song for the summer’s biggest flick and we’re not taking about Speilberg's Transformers either. Green Day have recorded a new version of the Simpsons them... MORE

Jordin Sparks was crowned the new season six American Idol at the end of Wednesday night’s 2-hour season finale. A record high 74 million votes were cast in the final round of voting that brought the seventeen-year-old Sparks head to head with Seattle native and the show’s first beat boxer Blake Lewis. In the end it was down to each final performance Tuesday night, which all three American Idol judges, Simon Cowell, a broken nosed Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson, gave to Spa... MORE

Is there any news about if Green Day is going to make a new album as Green Day? I know they just made one as the Foxboro Hot Tubs, but what about Green Day?

Green Day told me they were covering John Lennon's classic "Working Class Hero" a couple months ago but then Billie hustled off to New Orleans to help build homes for people displaced by Katrina-- the ones, unlike Trent Lott, who the Bush Regime never got to. It's coming out on May 30, on a benefit album for Amnesty International, INSTANT KARMA. The Bush Regime isn't doing much to save the folks in Darfur either so the proceeds from INSTANT KARMA will help out with that. A... MORE

There are a couple of newer songs I am listening to right now. One is Green Day's "Working Class Hero" and the other is Sum 41's "Underclass Hero." It strikes me that the names of these songs, both by pop punk rock bands, are so similar. I'm sure Sum 41 would love to be like Green Day, and I wonder whether these bands actually like (or know) each other. I am going to admit that I did not know that "Working Class Hero" was a John Lennon song until I saw the cover of the a... MORE
