Oasis/X Japan/Linkin Park/Dream Theater/The Smashing Pumpkins/Guns N' Roses首先是演唱會訊息，X Japan 放鳥兩次之後，終於要來台灣開 "勢在必行之夜" 演唱會了
話說在電腦前面看到這標題之後，我狂笑了好久，靠！這是殺洨演唱會名稱阿！
還真好意思講咧！地點在我家隔壁：台北縣立板橋體育場，時間是5/30
另外Oasis 因為被中國大陸官方封殺，所以決定來台灣開演唱會(真是傷當諷刺阿～)
而之前因被主唱背傷而臨時取消的LINKIN PARK台灣演唱會
也宣布將在8/13重新舉行，果然，他們還是決定要來了，請大家快去搶票吧！
接下來是樂團人事異動，The Smashing Pupkins 非凡人物合唱團 (或稱比利solo團)
最近宣布長久以來合作的伙伴，應該說，唯一還能忍受光頭比利而一路走來的鼓手～
Jimmy Chamberlin 決定退團了，因此從今起 The Smashing Pupkins 將不再具有原貌
好難過阿！少掉的 James Iha 吉他真的讓我懷念不已，現在連鼓都換了，如今都已成追憶摟！
Billy 大請自己好好保重！
Jimmy Chamberlin leaves The Smashing Pumpkins
THE SMASHING PUMPKINS' BILLY CORGAN ANNOUNCES

CORGAN SET TO HEAD INTO THE STUDIO TO CREATE NEW SMASHING PUMPKINS MUSIC
The SMASHING PUMPKINS' guitarist, singer, songwriter and founding member
Billy Corgan has announced that drummer Jimmy Chamberlin has left the group.
Chamberlin joined the band Corgan founded in Chicago in 1988 and played on
all their albums except Adore (1998). Corgan will continue to write and
record as SMASHING PUMPKINS with plans to head into the studio this spring.
除此之外，另一個捲土重來人事也已非的樂團，槍與玫瑰Guns N' Roses
決定更換吉他手了，人選是 Sixx: A.M 的吉他手DJ Ashba 耶！我有嚇到～
他將會參加GNR的現場演出，擔任吉他手頂替原本 Robin Finck 的位置，有期待到！
GUNS N' ROSES has announce that guitarist and songwriter D.J. Ashba has
joined the band for the upcoming tour.
Ashba, who officially replaces current NINE INCH NAILS guitarist Robin Finck,
is best known as co-founder of hard rock bands SIXX: A.M. and BEAUTIFUL
CREATURES.
"D.J.'s a gifted, energetic guitarist that GUNS N' ROSES is proud to have on
board!!" exclaims Axl Rose. "We're very excited to have the opportunity to
work together. GUNS' radar has silently been aware of D.J.'s presence for
quite some time! He brings a fresh approach to our particular brand of mayhem
expanding the tapestry of GUNS N' ROSES live. Once D.J.'s name was in the
hat, the hat disappeared!!"
Ashba stated, "It's an honor to have the opportunity to be a part of a band
that I have always loved and respected. I'm looking forward to working with
Axl, who is not only one of the few great frontmen of our generation, but a
true artist."
D.J. Ashba co-wrote and co-produced MOTLEY CRUE's latest album, "Saints of
Los Angeles", which garnered a 2008 Grammy nomination for "Best Hard Rock
Performance", as well as co-wrote and co-produced the SIXX: A.M. album

Robin "continues to be part of GN'R, by virtue of GUNS' history and his
