"The movement is being generated on message boards and social networking sites by non-emo youth who highly dislike like the emo look and attitude. The spark came first in Queretaro on March 7. An estimated 800 young people poured into the city’s Centro Historico hunting for emos to beat the crap out of. They found some. The next weekend it spread to Mexico City, where emos faced off against punks and rockabillies at the Glorieta de Insurgents, the epicenter of emo social space in the capital. There’s also been reports of anti-emo violence in Durango, Colima, and elsewhere."
They are also probably crying about their ex-girl friends and burnt sweaters.

Rock of Love 3: The open letter from John Mayer to be host the VHI music video show
Rock of Love 3: The open letter from John Mayer to be host the VHI music video show
Funny. Here is a John Mayer open letter to VHI explaining why he would be a better host than Bret Michaels for Rock of Love 3.
- It would be called Rock of Love 3, not Rock of Love III. VH1 viewers don’t have the time to figure out the Roman numerals, nor do they want to.
- No girls with tattoos all over their arms. No girls with fake boobs, fake lips, fake hair colors, fake eyebrows. No Pussycat Dolls-like apparel, trucker hats, or camouflage/pink clothes. No more than one thin coat of base and mascara will be allowed.
- I don’t wear headbands covering most of my head like Bret Michaels does. When I get a receding hairline one day, I’ll wear it proudly.
- I don’t wear makeup. Think of the money you will save in not buying Maybelline for Men and in not paying a couple makeup artists.
- Instead of Big John handing me VIP passes during elimination rounds, we can have Andy Kindler handing me guitar picks. Get it? I’m “picking” which girls will make it to the next round. Plus, Andy Kindler will provide some comic relief. That guy is hilarious!
- No cameras. Let’s just cut out the whole “episode” thing now that I think about it some more. You’ll save money on cameramen, editors, and wardrobe people. The idea is that the “show” will just happen naturally. I’ll eliminate girls as I see fit - like I do in real life – and then I’ll blog about it here. This will save you an estimated $1.3 million dollars.
- Ready for this? This is a pretty revolutionary idea: Before and after Rock of Love 3 is aired, play nothing but music videos. Remember when you played music videos? Wouldn’t it be wild if you could stop competing with MTV for who has the most reality shows, and start playing videos? No one else is doing it, you know.
- In fact, scrap this Rock of Love 3 idea. Also, stop Rock of Love II before the train wreck is over. Start playing videos right now. Think of the headlines you would create. The music industry will be buzzing, referring to VH1 as the “badboy” and the “rebel” of the music industry by playing nothing but music videos.
- You can throw in the video “Your Body is a Wonderland” every once in a while. It won some awards.
All the best,
John Mayer

NME ANNOUNCES PARTNERSHIP WITH MYSPACE FOR FIRST EVER NME MUSIC VIDEO AWARDS U.S.
NME - the longest-running and most famous music weekly in the world - today announced an exclusive partnership with the world’s leading social network, MySpace (http://www.myspace.com), to stream the first ever NME Awards US live from Los Angeles next month. In addition to streaming the awards, MySpace will also be presenting the Best Band of the Year award.
The hugely successful NME Awards UK - renowned as the most important and prestigious event for British fans of cutting-edge music - will be held in the US for the first time in Los Angeles at Goldenvoice’s historic El Rey Theatre on April 23, two days before the Coachella Music and Arts Festival begins.
MySpace will exclusively stream the invitation-only star-studded event, covering not only the Awards themselves but a string of unique live performances from a host of established and breakthrough artists.
"NME has been a leader in discovering and promoting new music for decades–their award show has always been a legendary line-up of who’s who in music," said Josh Brooks, MySpace VP of Marketing and Content. "MySpace’s partnership with NME is a reflection of our commitment to empowering up and coming artists to living legends with a vehicle to be heard. The MySpace webcast ensures that everyone around the world–not just the lucky few in the audience–will be talking about the show the next day."
Eleven categories have been open for voting at the world’s fastest music news service www.nme.com , and it was announced today more categories will be added including American Alternative/Indie Album of the Year (sponsored by www.ew.com, the award-winning online extension of Entertainment Weekly); Best New American Alternative/Indie Band, (sponsored by Yahoo! Music the global internet service provider) and Best Video (sponsored by leading broadband entertainment provider www.heavy.com.)
Four other categories announced today and open for voting include Best American Alternative/Indie Live Act, Best New American Alternative/Indie Live Act, Best Film and Best TV Show.
EW.com managing editor Jay Woodruff says: "We are thrilled to sponsor Best Album of the Year and delighted to help welcome the NME Awards to America."
Yahoo!

Yahoo! is thrilled to be part of this great moment in Anglo-American relations."
Heavy.com VP, entertainment, Jimmy Jellinek says: "Heavy.com is thrilled to be an inaugural partner of the NME US Awards. For the world’s leading music magazine to team with the world largest men’s video site (15 million uniques a month) is a match made in rock n’ roll heaven."
Winners will be voted for by NME.COM’s US audience across key categories, while others, including the famous Godlike Genius Award, will be chosen by NME’s editorial team.
The event, in association with Goldenvoice - part of leading sports and entertainment presenters AEG Worldwide - will be covered comprehensively on NME.COM. With 1.8 Million unique users, NME.COM is one of the world’s biggest music websites, and the fastest growing audience for its news and reviews is in the US.
The NME Awards Tour, which features Kate Nash, and is produced by Art Show Touring- a national touring division of Goldenvoice, kicks off in Atlanta on April 15, sweeps across US cities, ending in San Francisco on May 13. It also includes two Canadian dates - Toronto on April 28, and Vancouver on May 8.
NME publishing director Paul Cheal says: "The arrival of the awards in the US not only allows us to build on our amazing heritage, but also to bring our biggest live event to a US audience that is using NME.COM in ever greater numbers. It’s great news to have such powerful supporters to work with."
The shortlist for all categories will be unveiled on 7th April online at www.nme.com.

This is funny. Question is: Where did learn to eat like this?
Are Incubus still relevant as they tour in strange places of Asian and Hawaii?
Are Incubus still relevant as they tour in strange places of Asian and Hawaii?
Incubus has certainly come a long way since opening for bands such as 311 and System of a Down years ago. The group no longer resembles the dread-locked, baggy-pants-and-chain-wallet-wearing bunch of those days. The band’s sound also has transcended the psychedelic-funk of the 1995 debut, "Fungus Amongus."

Does this Poison music video with Bret Michaels really make you that hot?
Does this Poison music video with Bret Michaels really make you that hot?
They look like gays for their time but still how is it possible this videos makes women hot?
Ah, the Bret Michaels of a bygone era. Let me burn an image of this in my mind when I watch Rock of Love. How over the top were poison? CC and the boys walking down Hollywood boulevard in tight pants, high heeled boots and full makeup was like my idea of heaven. And Bret popping out of the Murphy bed? Wooo! I have to go fan myself.
Music video interview: Panic at the Disco are happy with the direction of new album? Are the fans?
Music video interview: Panic at the Disco are happy with the direction of new album? Are the fans?
Panic At The Disco began writing the album a year ago, but after they’d written a solid batch of concept-driven songs, they stopped to re-evaluate what they were doing and ended up deciding they were over thinking the process. ‘Instead of really throwing anything away, we decided to just move it to the side and approach the second record the same way we did the first record,’ Ross explains. ‘We tried to approach the songs individually and write songs that didn’t sound like anything else we’ve written,’ he continues. ‘Now we’re finally at the point where we can sit down and listen to the finished record and I know we’re happy with it, so I think it was a really good decision-especially since we hope that we’re going to have multiple opportunities to fully realize what our first idea was in the future.’
