Hopefully... The Final Countdown: World's Worst Cover Bands Pt. II

If there is a God, this will be the final performance of "The Final Countdown" from this band. The group Europe is turning over in their graves... and they're not even dead yet... at least I don't think they are. Either way... UGH!

Th... Th... Th... That's Cool Folks!

if you're a fan of the classic Chuck Jones/Warner Bros. Animation like I am, you'll enjoy this live action version of the "Roadrunner vs. Wiley E. Coyote" cartoons of yore. It's done by Apache Pictures and the actor playing the Roadrunner actually looks a bit like the original. I don’t know if this is part of a show-reel or the beginning of a viral campaign for an energy drink. Whatever it is, it works better than Acme Rocket Skis. Shot on location in Moab, Utah.
Enjoy! Beep Beep!

AC / THC

AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd was convicted of drug possession yesterday in a New Zealand court. Police found 27 grams of marijuana on his boat in October. Rudd's lawyer had argued that a conviction could interfere with his touring with AC/DC, but the judge said, "It was not just an accident. You were blindly ignoring the law. You have been playing Russian roulette." Rudd was also ordered to pay a $250 fine and court fees.

Rudd, who's on his second tour of duty with AC/DC, is the only Australian-born member of the band.

O U I J A Osbourne

You... yes YOU... can own you very own Ozzy Ouija Board Game. All you have to do is purchase a VIP Package for Ozzy's upcoming 2011 U.S. Tour ($1000) and you're 1/2 way to contacting the spirit of Randy Rhodes on the other side of the mountain. I've always thought that a Ozzy-themed version of "Life" would also be tons of fun.

And The Home of the Tone Deaf

Steven Tyler's version of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the Indy 500 in 2001 is one of the 10 worst performances of the song, according to Billboard. During the song he changed the "home of the brave" to "home of the Indianapolis 500." Tyler came in at number-seven, with the top honor going to Kat DeLuna. Bret Michaels didn't make the list for his performance last month at the Ford 400 Grand NASCAR race in Florida, but the reviews haven't been favorable. He couldn't hit the high notes and was aided by a local singer named Nanette Molina.

She...er...He Goes Down

MÖTLEY CRÜE singer Vince Neil suffered an awkward fall on the ice during his appearance on the latest episode of ABC's newest reality show, "Skating With The Stars". Sean Young and Denis Petukhov also became the first pair to be eliminated after receiving the lowest combined score from the first two performances, managing only 64 out of a possible 120 points.

According to Digital Spy, here's what the judges — Olympian Johnny Weir, skating commentator Dick Button and celebrity choreographer Laurieann Gibson — said about Vince's second performance:

Johnny: Says that he saw an "aura of intensity" when watching Vince as his musical knowledge has come in handy. However, urges him to concentrate on "basic skating" due to the fall Vince suffered during the performance. (Technical Merit: 3 / Artistic Impression: 6)

Laurieann: Calls Vince "masculine" and loves the drama and musicality of the performance. "Technically, the ice skating was bad, but just for the artistic side, amazing!" (Technical Merit: 6 / Artistic Impression: 6)

Dick: Tells Vince not to worry about making mistakes but advises him to work on his skating skills. "I enjoy your personality on the ice and I'm having a great time watching you!" he adds. (Technical Merit: 4 / Artistic Impression: 5)

Total: 30/60
