News / Mike McCray What happened to Rolling Stone's website?
Posted By Mike McCray on Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 4:20 PM
Mashable reported earlier today that RollingStone.com may have forgot to renew their domain name. A pretty mundane story really, that only gave us this light chuckle of this here screenshot I took of the missing website from this afternoon and a situation that I'm sure will be corrected ASAP.
Now, why their site had this FAIL is still a mystery but here's a couple theories I've been kicking around about it.
- Their 1 millionth story about Bruce Springsteen, Jimi Hendrix or some other rock legend triggered the 'We get it, they're great' virus.
- Angry hackers finally had enough of chest-naked guys on the cover! Bring back to hot chicks. (of age though, no wants to fantasize about a 16 year old).
- Gucci Mane called in a hit from prison after they called him a new artist in a recent issue. Come on RS, "So Icey" was a hit in 2004.
- They haven't broke a hot, new artist in a decade. The site crashed from old news.
- Creative Loafing tried to be David to their Goliath?
- Someone got high and hit the red button!
- Someone went into a liberal rage and accidentally hit the red button! (We're lefties too, don't worry)
- They let one of the interns from their old MTV show do more than what they transcribe interviews.
- Someone attempted to publish a post saying the Black Eyed Peas were the biggest supergroup of the past decade. (Will.I.Am is that dude though)
- Photos of a Miley, Taylor, dude from Twilight sextape leaked to their site before TMZ and killed the entire internet. Jonas' couldn't be reached for comment.

10-in-10 CD Reviews / News 10-in-10 CD reviews
Posted By Jeff Hahne on Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 4:50 PM
In an attempt to listen to every CD that hits my desk, I try to review 10 CDs in 10 words each on Fridays... Here's the latest addition:
Glossary Feral Fire — Band’s sixth album fueled by r&b, country with rock hints.
Creature with the Atom Brain Transylvania — Vintage garage rockers sound kinda like Queens of Stone Age.
Shining Black Jazz — Norwegian quintet creates pummeling metal riffs, grooves fused with jazz.
Nick Jonas & The Administration Who I Am — It’s too soon to be accepted by people over 16…
Suzi Ragsdale Less of the Same — Double-CD includes recent songs, others written over her career.
Lionel Loueke Mwaliko — West African influence swarms guitarist’s jazzy second Blue Note album.
Phantogram Eyelid Movies — Duo creates uniquely-styled tunes… I dub thee “electro shoegaze.”
Cuddle Magic Picture — Eclectic mix of instruments creates chamber folk… it’s definitely different.
PJ Morton Walk Alone — Grammy-winning musician releases soulful, weak-in-the-vocals album.
Luther Allison Songs from the Road — Double-live CD/DVD documents blues guitarists last live performance.

CD Reviews / News CD Review: Freeway & Jake One
Posted By Mike McCray on Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 4:06 PM
The Good: Jake One's production on this album is amazing. Simple, soulful and dope. Freeway's flow has developed from just a raw, lyrical assault to a controlled rage, calculated and deadly. There's plenty State Property guest appearances. Hearing Beanie Sigel, Young Chris & Omillio Sparks make you long for a State Prop 3 album or at least a posse record. "Sho'Nuff" with Bun B is the perfect North/South combo and even gives a nod to The Last Dragon in the title and chorus.
Videos / News Dedication to Tiger Woods
Posted By Mike McCray on Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 3:49 PM
Since every office in America seemed to stop for 13 and a half minutes today, here's a dedication [pause] going out to my homie Tiger Woods. I wouldn't have apologized but then again, nobody cares what I do. Here's "Cheatin" from North Carolina's own Little Brother, off their album The Minstrel Show.
