Shock rock legends Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson unite for a summer tour

So, I just heard about a June tour in the States I'm curious to check out if they venture this way. Who will be joining forces? Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson in the Masters of Madness Shock Therapy Tour. What's their first stop? The uber-conservative (Mormon) Salt Lake City, Utah. The following date? The Family Arena in St. Charles, Missouri.

It's too bad that Cooper is well past his prime and Manson doesn't seem to frighten parents or politicians much anymore. However, Cooper is the king of shock rock, is still quite entertaining, and Manson released a solid record not too long ago (Born Villain) and doesn't shy away from controversial lyrics, imagery, or commentary. I'm hoping the pair schedule a date in central Ohio or Detroit. It would definitely make for quite the theatrical, controversial, and entertaining experience.

I am curious how the shock rock legends will get along backstage. Cooper is a born-again Christian and Manson doesn't appear to have traveled that road just yet. I smell a VH1-behind-the-scenes documentary in-the-making here - Backstage with Alice and Marilyn or Alice and Marilyn's Wonderland or Christian Alice Punches Marilyn. There are so many possibilities...

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
