Word From the Steve Earle Camp!

Recent statements have been released regarding Chevrolet Trucks use of the would-have-been Steve Earle classic, "The Revolution Starts Now." Earle's manager, Dan Gillis, released the following statement: It's just a business decision we decided to make, and we went with it.

What!?

I have to say that I'm not just disappointed to hear that Steve Earle has sold out to the man, but I'm more upset with the trend that it has started. Artists everywhere, upon seeing Earle's success, have begun selling off song and name rights to the highest bidder in all genres of music. Just look at some of the shameful ads gracing our magazines and newspapers these days!

Chuck D happily trades his baadasssss attitude for some baadasssss cameras. Whatever happened to Andre Agassi?


Power to the people can only be spelled B-U-F-O-R-D



Even the deceased aren't exempt from this commercialization! In a related note, I hear that Bob Dylan is working on a song about Raid Bug Repellent, Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young versions to come.



Well, we all saw that one coming.



Now we've hit the bottom of the barrel, folks. But how can you not laugh at that picture, hell, when I found out that MICHAEL STIPE couldn't believe that it wasn't butter I was sold!
