Kanye is an author?
Kanye West is bringing out a book.
This comes as amazing news to us at HQ because we were seriously under the impression that the wire-jawed bellend couldn’t read or write. The book will be called Thank You And You’re Welcome and will feature “creative, humorous and insightful philosophies and anecdotes used in creating his path to success.”
Will it include the time you drunkenly got on stage and made a prick out of yourself in front of the Ed Banger lot? No? Will it include any of the numerous times you muddled your words up? No?
Fucking hell, what next? A Lil Wayne cook book?

Fall Out Boy are wimps
Pete Wentz has broken his foot.
The Fall Out Boy bass player got the injury during a set in New Orleans but has said that he doesn’t plan to miss any shoes because of the injury.
Well of course you fucking won’t, you big girl’s blouse, you’ve only got a bit of bruising there. At least Roisin Murphy bust her eye up, that’s a proper injury that is.
Jeez.

The Who to tour again
The Who are set to tour again next year.
The band announced they would be continuing their reformed live show after having recently completed a 13-month tour which took in Europe and America. The band are gearing up for the release of their DVD Amazing Journey: The Story Of The Who. Of the tour, frontman Roger Daltry said:
“We don’t want to stop now. We don’t want those long hiatuses that we used to have. We feel at this time of our lives it’s too precious a thing to take liberties with time. When you’re young, you’ve got that time. When you’re old, you haven’t. You should at least keep the ball rolling,”

SOTY sign to Epitaph
Epitaph have signed Story Of The Year.
The band released two albums on Maverick Records, but will move over to Epitaph to work with Goldfinger frontman John Feldman and Elvis Baskette on their new record which is set for release next year. Epitaph boss Brett Gurewitz said of the band:
“From my first time seeing Story of the Year light up the stage of the tiny Troubadour club like a torch, to soon thereafter seeing them light up every TV screen across America, I always regretted that I hadn’t come across them just a little sooner and perhaps have had the chance to sign them, All I can say is I’m finally redeemed! This is a very big deal for Epitaph.”
