Idol News
I am not a really big fan of American Idol, but admit to watching this season and rooting for the underdog (as many who voted did as well) and I think the right singer (Kris Allen) won the competition.
This from Rolling Stone:
After Adam Lambert’s killer performance with Queen on Wednesday night’s season finale of American Idol, rumors flew that he had already been offered a job singing with the band. That’s slightly premature, according to the band’s guitarist, Brian May.
“Amongst all that furor, there wasn’t really a quiet moment to talk,” May tells Rolling Stone in an e-mail interview. “But [drummer Roger Taylor] and I are definitely hoping to have a meaningful conversation with him at some point. It’s not like we, as Queen, would rush into coalescing with another singer just like that. It isn’t that easy. But I’d certainly like to work with Adam. That is one amazing instrument he has there.”
This from Gene Simmons (who always seems to have an opinion about everything related to music):
“Respectfully, I don’t think Adam is a rock singer,” Simmons writes. “He sounds much more convincing singing ballads and Broadway shows. His voice doesn’t seem to have a ‘rock quality.’ But, I’m sure he’s going to do just fine.”
When asked, based on Lambert and Allen’s performances with the band during the season finale, which of the two he’d throw his own money behind as they build their careers, Simmons was succinct.
“Adam.”

The Doors "From The Outside" Documentary To Be Released
MVD Visual and Sexy Intellectual have announced the home viewing release of The Doors "From The Outside" for North American distribution on DVD. This brand new documentary film tells the story of The Doors, not from the perspective of the surviving members - as has been told so many time before - but from the recollections, memories, stories and anecdotes of those who knew the group and its members best.
The panel is headed by a woman who was as close to Jim Morrison as anyone ever was; his widow Patricia Kennealy-Morrison. Kennealy-Morrison has rarely spoken on film about her relationship with Morrison, or about her own memories of The Doors. This is a once in a lifetime contribution from someone who knew just about everything that went on.
