I know this is not breaking news, but just in case you guys missed Travis Barker's rant via his blog (it got removed shortly after being posted), here is his run down of the break up of his marriage to Shanna Moakler:
What's happnin'...gotta say this is wierd for me. I've never blogged or left a journal, or had my own website for EVERYBODY to read. I've always expressed my self thru my music/drums.
- I've never had anybody flat out lie about me or say things so FOUL in the press either so there is a first for everything.
- It's important to me what my fans think.
- We stand up for ourselves...when someone pushes you/us, NO MATTER HOW BIG we stand up and push right back before we let them have it....right?
- Well im here to set the record straight about my divorce for anybody wondering Here i will give you a walk in my life with Shanna Moakler.
- It starts around 5:30.(SHANNA SLEEPING) i wake up and get my babies....we play wit dinosaurs, numbers, we change dirty dipers, it's the best.
- Around 7am our oldest gets up(SHANNA SLEEPING). She gets ready for school and i make her "coffee milk" and a bagel. the other babies are knee deep in eggies and applesauce.
- SHANNA DOESN'T EVEN TAKE HER DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL, her ASSISTANT DOES.
- At 8am our nanny comes in, she is the best, at 9am we go on a walk, me and my son...we find pine cone tree's. At 10am i go to breakfast meeting.
- At 11am (SHANNA SLEEPING) i return from breakfast and kiss the babies goodbye, it's time to drive to [work].
- I get back from [work] round' 2pm and i head over to my studio. (SHANNA IS JUST NOW GETTING UP:) SHANNA GOES TO GET NAILS DONE WIT HER ASSISTANT.

- Around 1am i get home....NO SHANNA, JUST THE SMELL OF PERFUME LIKE GNARLY. MY NANNY IS STILL AT THE HOUSE...(THIS NANNY IS ALSO TO REFERRED TO AS MOMMY at times:(). I SHOWER AND GET INTO BED, ROUND 3:30 AM MY WIFE GETS IN, DRUNK, LOUD CURSING CAUSE SHE HATES MY FRIENDS, HATES MY BANDS, MY WORK,HATES ME .... I GO TO BED AND REPEAT THIS EVERYDAY....

WITH THAT BEING SAID.....I WANT NOTHING BUT THE BEST FOR MY CHILDEREN. I WANT THE BEST MOMMY EVER FOR THEM....I TRIED, I WENT TO THERAPY WIT SHANNA.
- I LOVE SHANNA VERY MUCH, SO MUCH I HAD TO LEAVE CAUSE I'M NOT THE TYPE OF PERSON TO STAY IN A SITUATION THATS UNFAIR AND UNFIT TO BUILD A FAMILY.
- I NEVER WANTED THIS....NEVER. MY HEART IS BROKEN AND A DREAM OF MINE IS GONE.
- I'M NOT SURE WHAT TOMMORROW HOLDS, YOU NEVER DO....STAY UP-I LOVE U GUYS. Tr@vi$
I find this interesting, because when the news officially broke that he had filed for divorce, this is why I suspected he wanted to end his marriage. Of course I do not know any of the parties involved personally, but--they exposed themselves quite a bit on their MTV reality show, Meet The Barkers. Shanna slept in until 2pm on most days, rarely doing any "mommy" stuff. She never worked either. She just seemed to sleep in, pamper herself at salons, shop or just loaf around, or she was busy planning their wedding with the wedding planner. Travis was often up early, doing "daddy" stuff and working hard at his various musical projects and business ventures. This October would have been their 2-year anniversary.
I feel sad for Travis because Shanna is one hot MILF. But hey, he's a rock star, so he will easily find another hot chick to replace her. Shanna is also due to appear on the show Dancing with The Stars in its upcoming season. Perhaps she is good at looking hot and dancing! We'll find out soon enough.
Attention all face-hugging parasites. And by that I mean people who run these craptastic "videocodes" websites. I hope somebody siphons out your gas tank with a hose and sells your gas for crack.
I caught yet another videocode site sucking away at our content and bandwidth the other day and it pissed me off to the point where I felt compelled to write this rant. I have no problem with video codes and distributing videos to embed in profile pages when it's legal to do so, but you bottom-feeder site owners who take it upon yourselves to pass out deep links to my content to make a quick buck off my hard work have another thing coming. Grow up and learn how to run a legit business.
It took me like a week to recover from Lollapalooza. Three days of being in the sun all day...the unknowing of what band I was going to interview next...not knowing if they were going to eat me up and spit me out....the caked on make up that I sweat through.....and my DAMN FEET!
However, all in all WHAT an experience!!!!! Roxwel got interviews with 30 Seconds to Mars, New Pornographers, Ben Kweller, Midlake, Be Your Own Pet, and mannnnnnnny more!
All the interviews are about the bands latest videos. Where we interview backstage and watch the band's video on an ipod. It's great!
Keep your eyes peeled for upcoming artist commentaries on Roxwel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BLEEDING FROM MY EYES. HARMON-KARDON AMPS SMOKING. Metalocalypse brutally blew my socks OFF and gave me a Lemmy-stache. I'm a huge fan of all the stuff coming our of Adult Swim these days, but this show. this show is great. The artwork is total Boris Vallejo style metal album cover, the voicing is great, and the animation is fret fricking accurate. Awesome work guys. It's like you went to the pool where they have Adult Swim and threw in a bunch of toasters and hairdryers and radios and electrocuted everyone swimming and turned the pool into brutal corpse soup garnished with popped eyeballs. Check it out at http://www.adultswim.com/shows/metal. Rox on.
BTW, I heard Roxwel's Kristi Lee wants a date with Skwisgaar Skwigelf - can yall set something up?
Yea its that girl you see in the ad spot every time you watch a video on Roxwel. Are you sick of looking at me yet? Beleive it or not I'm a music junkie. I listen to it all.. Including country....sshhhh don't tell.
I do this weekly countdown on Roxwel bringing viewers some of the hottest new rock videos. Funny cause I never planned on being in front of a camera...but everything happens for a reason right?
I love feedback...soooo if you got some BRING IT!
Speaking of "BRING IT," which is the theme song to "Snakes on a Plane" by Cobra Starship.
Let me get this straight... people are getting all nutted out over a B movie that has snakes on a plane? Did I miss something here? Besides the fact that Cobra Starship released their first single without even having a band assembled. Talk about manufactured music.
AND PEOPLE ITS SNAKES!
August 14 Show
Perry Ferrell's Lollapalooza, in Chicago's Grant Park, blew 166,000 people away this year! The music festival went on from August 4-6 with the Red Hot Chili Peppers closing the show Sunday night. This was the second year Lollapalooza was a one stop festival and grossed $8 million in ticket sales.
Farrell established Lollapalooza in 1990 as a farewell to Janes Addiction. Lollapalooza ran until 1997 touring the country. The loss of ticket sales and finding a headliner brought the tour to a halt. In 2003 Capital Sports and Entertainment joined forces with Charles Attal and produced the 2005 Lollapalooza in two days, 60,000 fans, and 70 bands.
With a great city and great bands next years Lollapalooza is expected to even out due this year's festival. Roxwel is excited to be a part of this years Lollapalooza getting the chance to interview some of the phenomenal bands that performed. Look for upcoming artist commentaries on Roxwel!
The Orange County rock band is singing stop in the name of copyright infringement. Supernova, perhaps best known for contributing the song "Chewbacca" to the cult movie "Clerks," has filed for a preliminary injunction to prevent the use of its name by a new supergroup involved in the CBS/Mark Burnett Prods. TV show "Rock Star: Supernova."
Attorneys for the group filed for the injunction Friday in U.S. District Court in San Diego after the collapse of settlement talks, which had followed the filing of a lawsuit in the matter in June.
The summer movie "Snakes on a Plane", which hasn't even hit theaters yet, has become the newest cult. Cobra Starship is riding the hype with its theme song "Snakes on a Plane (Bring it)." Lead singer, Gabe Saporta, is from the band Midtown and started Cobra Starship as a side project. The name Cobra Starship came from a jacket Saporta wore with the image of a Cobra and stated "Starship Disco" Cobra Starship started out as a solo project for Saporta, and he has now assembled a band which will be playing together. This explains why their different band mates from his video and the recent taken pictures' of Cobra Starship. The sounds of Cobra Starship will shock Midtown fans. Saporta's new sounds lean towards a pop influence, which are very different from what his fans normally hear. The question is what is after "Snakes on a Plane" for this band and what direction does Cobra Starship go with its sound.
