Hole To Reform!

Well...sort of. it is more like the Smashing Pumpkins situation where the main person (because what would Hole be without Courtney Love?!) is in the band and there are some former familiar faces joining in with the project.

After failing to release her solo album "Nobody's Daughter" that has been set to come out for some time now, she will resurrect the name Hole and release and tour under it. The album should be out at the end of 2009 or early 2010...we have yet to find out.

Joining her is her new partner in crime and former Larrikin Love member Micko Larkin and former Hole bassist Melissa Auf der Mar, who also added backing vocals on the record.

Get ready to add some 90's grunge back into your life...

Courtney Love Bags A New Writing Partner

In the continuing quest for Courtney Love to feel as British as possible, she's ditched the Billy Corgan's and Linda Perry's of the world for none other than Micko Larkin. Micko WHO? Well, it seems that Micko Larkin (guitarist of the recently broken up band Larrikin Love) has been assisting in Love's recording sessions in Los Angeles.

Could the follow up to America's Sweetheart be a britpop record? Who knows with C. Love these days...

Dirty Girls Really Do Get (Almost) Clean...

God bless Courtney Love...she's 43 and looks better then most 20 year olds (apparently due to anorexia...thats why she popped an Ensure onstage mid show at Hiro) and she still sounds damn good.

I had the pleasure of seeing Courtney at Hiro on Thursday and she was fucking brilliant. It was everything you wanted it to be...from one liners about how she could "go all night...I'm like Springsteen" to "the bass sounded like a fart can you tune it please." The set was filled with a few old favorites (complete with a lyrics sheet in front of her for "Northern Star") and a ton of new stuff. The new stuff is everything you think it would be...raw and edgy but with a pop edge (thank you Linda Perry).

Here is the set list from the gig:
'Samantha'
'Malibu'
'Stand Up Motherfucker'
'Sunset Marquis'
'Miss World'
'How Dirty Girls Get Clean'
'Pacific Coast Highway'
'How Dirty Girls Get Clean Pt 1'
'Letter To God'
'Loser Dust'
'Celebrity Skin'
'Doll Parts'
'Never Go Hungry Again'
'For Once In Your Life'
'Northern Star'
'Happy Ending Story'

and here are some videos for your viewing pleasure:

"Miss World"


"Samantha"


I don't give a fuck what anyone says...she's still got it.

Courtney Love Comes To New York

Courtney Love took the kinderwhore movement in the early 90's and made it a main stream success. That and uhh...she was married to Kurt Cobain.

Through her versace phase, her I'm so LA phase and her $2 thrift store phase I still sort of never lost the love for Courtney.

Hence me being excited for THIS:
