For the Top Gear fans:

Richard Hammond, a British television presenter known for co-presenting Top Gear and Brainiac is in as stable condition in hospital. He was injured when the jet-powered car he was driving crashed during filming for the former. The "Vampire" car, which holds the British land speed record, overturned whilst being driven at speeds of up-to 280mph at Elvington airfield near York, in what was suggested to be an attempt at bettering the previous record. It has been alleged that he suceeded in a previous attempt. It was during his final attempt that the crash occured. Emergency services were called to the scene at 5.45pm local time (16:45 UTC).

All-Ages Gigs Suck...

because of the stupid restrictions on alcohol.
because of screaming 12 year old drama-students.
because of stupid children who don't know concert etiquette - if you stand 5 rows from the front of the stage you forfeit your right to complain if someone jostles you. You want to what a show in peace? Go stand in the balcony or buy the DVD.

Apart from that - it was a great show.

BTW - the second support act for the night (I don't count physical theatre-wankers as a support act)? Check out this interview. Best quote:

"All this probably takes away from the music, but like whatever, I don't care it's like a fucking movie man. You don't watch The Red Paintings to mosh out or to shake your tail feather. These shows are set up so you can disappear from reality without taking some crazy drug. I'm just so over seeing and hearing so much of the same old same old so I've created what I would like to see, I know I probably have no idea but who really does?"

San Diego Comic Con Simpsons Movie preview 1

Not entirely inaccurate...

Metyallica named in the list of 'The 25 Biggest Wusses … Ever!'...at 17:

17 Enter Sadman
Metallica
The haircuts were lame and the anti-Napster crusade lamer, but neither prepared fans for the soppy bitchfest that was Some Kind of Monster: The once-throttling metalheads dropped $40K a month on a touchy-feely life coach in a Cosby sweater who played master to Metallica’s puppets. Lars and James bicker and weep throughout, but neither has the decency to just go ahead and slug the other.
Wussiest moment: Lars’s ego is crushed by his gnomish father who, upon hearing a new song, sagely advises, “I would delete that.”

Comedy Central Revives 'Futurama'

Three years after Fox canceled the show, Matt Groening's "Futurama" will resume production for a 13-episode run on Comedy Central. The new episodes will be added to the network's library of 72 "Futurama" episodes previously licensed from 20th Century Fox Television. Voice talent Billy West, Katey Sagal and John DiMaggio will return for the new episodes, which will debut in 2008.

It's finally official. More here.
