Dec 10, 2011 RnRTV #268: Led Zeppelin Chart, Bruce Dickinson Rescues and David Bowie Say

Rock n Roll TV 268 with tasty morsels of rock news hosted by Share Ross! Led Zeppelin in the charts again; Bruce Dickinson to rescue Astreus Airlines; David Bowie says no to musical based on his life; Ozzy has his own radio station; Sex Pistols graffiti deemed historically important.

They haven't had a new studio album since 1982 but Led Zeppelin are in the album charts again! Led Zeppelin IV originally released in 1971 went to #166 on Billboards 200 chart. Probably because the album is celebrating its 40th anniversary. When it was originally released it went to the top of virtually every album chart in the world.

Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson has vowed to save the Astreus, the airline he flies for. Astreus has gone into crisis mode and stopped trading this past week after Bruce landed its final flight. But he has stepped up as its new marketing director and says he has plans to create as many as 1500 new jobs in aerospace in South Wales.
I don't think the airline industry has ever seen the likes of Bruce before.

It was widely reported last week that David Bowie had agreed to allow his songs to be used for a futuristic fantasy about his life called "Heroes: The Musical" which is premiering next year at London's Indig02 venue. But Bowie's official spokesman says this is incorrect and neither the singer nor his management are in negotiation for his songs to be used in the musical.

A panel assembled by Rolling Stone has named Jimi Hendrix the greatest guitarist in history. Members of the panel include: Brian May, Ritchie Blackmore, Kirk Hammett just to name a few. Key Hendrix tracks is Purple Haze and Hendrix's rendition of the Star Spangled Banner.

Boy George has urged Adele to give up smoking in order to prolong her singing career.

Ozzy has launched his own SiriusXM channel - Ozzy's Boneyard which will feature shows hosted by the Osbourne family.

One of our favorite bands.. The Flaming Lips plan to rock three shows to end the year and promise more confetti, more balloons, massive volume and maximum weirdness.

A doctor of archaeology wants Sex Pistols graffiti on the wall of a London flat to be preserved for posterity. Dr John Schofield of York University says the offensive and rude scrawling are more important than lost Beatles recordings and equally valuable as Neanderthal cave paintings. The graffiti consists of scribbles, slogans and eight sketches made by Pistols frontman Johnny Rotten while the band lived together in a flat on Denmark Street in the Tin Pan Alley music industry area of London.

Guitar rock like Led Zeppelin certainly had a lot of hair to deal with back in the day! Imagine if they'd been able to get what they need using a Folica coupon code like ROCK10 to save 10%! Yeah. Make it shiny and keep it loud.
