Looking Back On A Week Where We Attempted A Country Crossover
• The American Music Awards: Proving that popular music is still considered “popular” in some quarters. • Blender sits down with Jay-Z and Heidi Montag, although tragically not at the same time. • Alicia Keys’ week was full of Toasting and well-deserved boasting. • The fake Pete Wentz sex tape: In which our hero puts the “emo” into “emoting.” Too bad that there was no tango scene! • Steven Van Zandt wants to have class. • Thanks to Ian Astbury’s big mouth, we can now sorta maybe possibly confirm that the Led Zeppelin reunion tour is probably happening. We think. • The Next Great American Band is still on, even though Maura’s TiVo seems to be in denial about that fact. • We skipped No Music Day, because what we’re really waiting for is No Internet Week. Time to start filesharing from a French IP address!
