• Fact: Chris Martin Popped Pills And Gargled Whiskey Before Dazzling You At The AAC

  EasyAim on FlickrOnly... well...The pills are vitamins, and the whiskey is mostly to lubricate Martin's throat for the many quavering high notes to come. "It's pretty exciting back here, right?" cracks drummer Will Champion, who spends most of his pre-show time playing a PlayStation 3 soccer game. "It's just like Mötley Crüe!"So writes Rolling Stone's Brian Hiatt, on location at Coldplay's Dallas date at the American Airlines Center back on November 19. The piece, which can be read in full her

• Today In Music News: Motley Crue To Feel Good, Sublime To Get New Singer, Spinal Tap To Unwig

  Your daily dose of national music news for Wednesday, March 4, 2009... Somewhere, the seventh grade me is jumping up and down with glee: Motley Crue has announced that it will play Dr. Feelgood in its entirety on its upcoming Crue Fest 2: White Trash Circus tour. No word at this time whether "Rat Tail" Jimmy will be on hand for the shows. Apparently, the Sublime boys didn't take notice of The Doors... er, I mean Riders on The Storm's massive fail: The surviving members of the b

• Show Announcements: Snoop Dogg, Kid Rock & Skynyrd, Meat Puppets, Rookie of the Year

  Clearing out a slight backlog, we've got more national acts than usual to add to this week's list. And with summer only a few months away, now's the time for the big outdoor venues to fill their calendars. Besides the acts in the headline, you can look forward to Motley Crue, Godsmack and Depeche Mode. Oh, and don't despair just because your favorite band hasn't announced a Dallas date yet--plenty of tribute bands are in this week's list, all after the jump.

  Last week, Live Nation, the national concert booking and promoting conglomerate that books to Superpages.com Center and other large venues throughout the region, offered up the concert-going public what it thought would be a nice little respite to the recession: One day (Wednesday) in which service fees were scrapped on all lawn seat purchases made at the company's many outdoor amphitheaters nationwide.Well, turns out, it was quite the says. per a press release from Live Nation sent out earlier

  They're doing it again.

Boyer, who is gearing up for his 32nd vineyard harvest later in the year, is the winemaker behind the new Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay and Central Coast Cabernet Sauvignon...but we were interested in another question entirely: why was a baby-faced local weather personality hosting the party?
