This will be a great place for the kid to relax and practice what he has learned in his anger management classes.
Sometimes, I even think spending large amounts of money helps with anger management.
I guess I would have spent my money on more guitars or amps, or even a place in Hawaii.
Looks like this Detroit rocker is now a Southern man.

For Former STP Frontman, Freedom Tastes of Reality
For successfully completing a required rehab program, a drug charge against Scott Weiland was dismissed this week by a California judge, according to Rolling Stone.
Some performers in Rock N Roll live by the credo: sex, drugs and rock n roll. Yet others just go with drugs, drugs and more drugs.
I know of one lead singer with a major drug issue that is lucky to be alive. In fact, his current band members have helped him through his drug addition and got him back to platinum selling stardom.
Someone in Velvet Revolver needs to count their blessings.

Hip Hop Star Calms the Random Waters
The lawsuit between Random House Publishers and Sean Combs has been resolved, according to EUR WEB.
Well, it only took about five months for P. Diddy to resolve the money issue that has been going on since early 2000. If it was me, I would have been sued long ago, thrown in jail and been locked up with some scary character that had no moral fibers.
For P. Diddy’s sake, I hope the guy he hired and paid back in 1998 to write the manuscript gets what is due to him for stiffing Mr. Combs out of a nice chunk of change.
Can you say dirty deeds and they’re done dirt cheap?

Producer of Power-Ballad 'Sister Christian' Dies
The man who produced Night Ranger's three most successful albums recently passed away, according to MelodicRock.
In the music world if you're extremely lucky or blessed, you cross paths with a special someone who for whatever reason feels your vibe and utilizes their non-playing talents to take you to the next level.
Some bands have all the talent in the world, but for whatever reason can never find that special individual to take them into the limelight.
Jeff Watson said it best, "His passing is a sad and sobering reminder of just how short our time is here on this tiny planet."

Snoop Dog Can't Do D-I-V-O-R-C-E
Mega rapper Calvin Broadus, AKA Snoop Dog, has decided that he will not go through the divorce process with his wife of eight years, according to FemaleFirst.
I can't wait until Snoop's wife, Shante, pulls the plug on ole Snoop Dog. Going public to the world about how your not going to divorce your wife seems so irrelevant to me.
Then again, what does it really matter when you have fame, fortune and a porn career?
Maybe Snoop just needed to let the world know that he is only human, of flesh and blood he's made.
Born to make mistakes.

P Funk Loses One Of Its Own
One of the original members who provided bass vocals on numerous hit songs for Parliament-Funkadelic passed away from respiratory complications, according to Yellowbrix.
I remember many moons ago when P Funk came to Montgomery, AL. Back then, a friend of mine saw them in concert, and I will never forget how blown away he was when he saw their spaceship-stage show.
They fused together so many types of music that many of today's superstars don't even have a clue that they are taking their groove from the Funkadelics.
I think it's time to get some P funk back in our face.

She's A Cold Hearted Snake
Former Pop Star Paula Abdul is being sued by an L.A. jeweler for not returning over $30,000 worth of jewelry she was loaned for TV appearances, according to the World Entertainment News Network.
Well it looks like this American Idol judge just can't seem to stay out of the limelight. I bet she loves all the publicity she has been getting lately.
I wonder if this jewelry matter has anything to do with alleged Corey Clark affair or if Corey Clark situation has anything to do with the jewelry Paula decided to not give back to its rightful owner.
So now I wonder, who's been tellin' lies.
