More GnR Fuel To The Fire?

The classic Guns n' Roses logo is back on the band's official website. That's fueling more rumors about a classic lineup reunion. Apparently, GnR might reunite and play at Coachella in April. That lineup announcement is set for January 5. We'll see I guess.

Glam Christmas Countdown - Queen

We're closing in and there's just two more days until Christmas! Finish your shopping, pack your bags for mom's house and bake the fruitcake - time's running out! Today we continue our countdown of Glam Christmas tunes with Queen.


Queen released 'Thank God It’s Christmas' as a proper single in 1984 but it wasn’t included on any Queen records until Greatest Hits III in 1999. The song is a straight holiday ballad, commemorating the band’s affection for the season.

Glam Christmas Countdown - Bon Jovi 

There's just three days left until Christmas. If you're like my husband you either 1) haven't started shopping yet or 2) bought two things but won't wrap them until the last possible second. That's okay, it's all good. My shopping has been done for about two weeks and I'm glad I didn't have to set foot in a single store this past weekend.

Since we're so close to the holiday, it only makes sense to post some more awesome Glam Christmas songs. Today, the great Bon Jovi tune "I Wish Everyday Could Be Like Christmas." The Christmas tune was on the compilation A Very Special Christmas, with proceeds benefiting the Special Olympics. Fun fact: the first pressing of that album had the Bon Jovi song "Back Door Santa" instead. My friend Samantha got this album for Christmas in 1987 or 1988 - I believe it was also the year she got a CD player.

If you're thinking of spending $7,400 on a 2 day festival, please drop me an email. I'll talk you out of it and help you pick some mutual funds for that money instead!
