Today's Music News: The Farmers in Led Zeppelin, Tuba Thefts, and New Ty Segall Albums

Posted by on Fri, Feb 10, 2012 at 11:14 AM

Ron Wood Could Have Been In Led Zeppelin According to Ron Wood: But the Faces/Rolling Stones guitarist didn't want to join "a bunch of farmers."

Tuba Raids: Authorities in Southern California believe a string of tuba thefts from local school music departments is a result of the increasing popularity of Mexican Banda music in the region.

Madonna Stalker at Large: In extremely disturbing news, a man who broke into Madonna's house in 1996 and threatened to cut her throat has escaped from a mental health facility.

Stream the Screaming Females Single: Over at RollingStone.com, and make sure to check out these guys (they're like a less art-school Yeah Yeah Yeahs with more shredding) if they ever make it out to Seattle.

Ty Segall Announces New Albums: There will be two new ones in the next six months (along with a White Fence collaboration) as revealed in an interview with the scuzz rocker.

Jake Clemens to Replace Clarence Clemons: The departed Big Man's nephew will handle Sax duties for Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band's next tour. In related Boss news, he's got a new video that premiered today for "We Take Care of Our Own," from the upcoming album.

Quick, If You Started a Boutique Record Label Today, Who Would You Sign First?: If you're Adam Levine of Maroon 5 and NBC's The Voice, the answer is the guy who plays the main teacher in Glee.

You Know I Like Dancing Wit Chu: Poor Lita Ford, in a song about how much she likes dancing and kissing someone, for the video she just gyrates and slithers all alone (excluding her guitar, a few enormous ice cubes, and the backing band that appears to be miles away). Other than that, this has always been a good end-of-the-work-week jam for me and I hope you dig it too.
