Bloc Party Announcing Oasis Split At Rock en Seine Video

In case you still haven’t heard, Oasis have split up. Well, Noel Gallagher has left the band, whether the rest of them continue on or not without him has yet to be decided. They final straw for Noel came when he and Liam fought before playing their headlining set at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris on Friday night.
Video has now surfaced of Bloc Party telling the crowd that Oasis had canceled. The YouTube clip shows Kele Okereke breaking the news to the crowd, and reveling in the fact their cancellation meant Bloc Party were effectively headlining.

Rick Astley Rickrolls Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade – Surely This Kills The Phenomenon!

Rickrolling is the Internet phenomenon that just refuses to die. Unlike Chris Crocker and the Chocolate Rain guy, Rickrolling keeps rearing its ugly head when least expected – which is the whole idea in the first place I suppose. But this time, Rick Astley himself was involved.
The latest and possibly greatest ever Rickroll came during Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, an annual parade through the streets of New York. As can be seen below, Rick Astley turned up unexpectedly on the Foster’s Home For Imaginary Friends float.

After singing (or at least miming) Never Gonna Give You Up, one of the puppets …read more

Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow Best Of Friends Again At Soccer Match (Video)

Ever since Robbie Williams left Take That to strike out on his own, the relationship between him and Gary Barlow is said to have been frosty at best. In fact, it probably soured even before that, as Williams took a more lead singer role even though Barlow wrote the majority of the songs.
But that was a long time ago, with Robbie leaving in 1995. A lot has happened since then, with Williams having a fantastic solo career that has netted him a fortune, a string of beautiful girlfriends, and a house in Beverly Park, Los Angeles. Take That, meanwhile, reformed …read more

Foo Fighters Team Up With Led Zeppelin!

I can’t believe the rumour turned out to be true, but oh yeah, the Foo Fighters were indeed joined on stage by members of Led Zeppelin during Saturday night’s Wembley Stadium gig… and there’s video footage to prove it!
I posted late on Friday night about the rumours of a collaboration straight from Heaven between the biggest rock band on the face of the planet right now, and members of one of the biggest rock bands ever, and The Rock Dose has confirmed that it did indeed happen. Here is the proof:

Even this poorly shot footage shows how awesome it is …read more

Winehouse Gets Away With Smoking Drugs On Video | Facing No Police Charges

Amy Winehouse was arrested last week on suspicion of drugs possession after a video was circulated in January of her allegedly smoking crack cocaine through a pipe. She was interviewed, before being released on police bail.
Now, a week later, the Crown Prosecution Service has revealed that the singer will not face any charges, and is therefore free to go.
So how did she get away with it yet again? Because the CPS was unable to establish whether the substances seen in the video were illegal drugs or not.
A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said:
“The Crown Prosecution Service has now reviewed the …read more

40 More Songs To Add To Your iPod or Mp3 Player – b5 Music Channel Recommendations

There’s over 40 songs for you to check out, so take your time, listen to the embeds, and watch the videos, and become more educated to new music. Yes, that IS an …read more

Radiohead Honoured With Four Hour Long Remix Of Videotape – Pointless Or Art?

Radiohead Honoured With Four Hour Long Remix Of Videotape – Pointless Or Art?

How big a Radiohead fan are you? Could you sit through a four hour video remix of just one of their songs? I hope so, as that is exactly what serial remixer James Rutledge is planning to release.
Radiohead have been one of the most innovative, creative and experimental British bands over the last few years.
From their very ordinary Indie beginnings, they have created unique album after unique album, and virtually created a genre in the process.
This experimental nature went a stage further last year with the almost free digital release of newest album In Rainbows. To accompany this, visual elements …read more

Amy Winehouse At The Brits 2008 – Valerie With Mark Ronson, Love Is A Losing Game

Amy Winehouse made another successful appearance at an awards ceremony last night, this time at the Brits 2008 held in London.
Although she didn’t win anything, she did perform twice on stage, once to sing Valerie with Mark Ronson, and once in her own right, singing Love Is A Losing Game for her incarcerated husband Blake Fielder-Civil.
Here is a bit of a video compilation of her night at the Brits, an event which I live blogged here on Brit Music Scene.

Amy Winehouse’ Grammy Performance | Sings ‘Rehab’ & ‘You Know I’m No Good’

Yesterday saw Amy Winehouse win five Grammy awards, to become the most successful artist at this, the 50th annual Grammies. She also sang a two song medley of Rehab and You Know I’m No Good from a London studio, after having her application for a Visa turned down until it was too late for her to make the trip.
Here, in case anyone missed it, is her performance…

She’s definitely looking better than she has for the last year or so, clean, sober, and drug free. In fact, the only thing she looks high on is the enthusiasm for being on stage, …read more

Yesterday saw shocking video footage of Amy Winehouse smoking cocaine from a crack pipe plastered all over the Internet, including here on Brit Music Scene.
Today, it seems that after fans pleaded with the singer to finally get some help to overcome her addictions, she’s taken the first steps toward recovery by visiting a drugs clinic in London.
