- Carlos Santana plans to start a church in Maui, Hawaii, become its resident preacher and hang up his guitar for good in seven years’ time.
- During Red Hot Chili Peppers’ break, Flea has enrolled at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles to study music theory, music composition and jazz trumpet. He keeps getting interrupted by his fellow students wanting his autograph!
- The Kills had to bring in police and federal investigators after their tour bus – and its driver – vanished in Texas. Either the driver met with foul play or he scampered with their equipment.
- Nick Cave, recently announced as curator of the inaugural Australian All Tommorow’s Parties (see Tour Announcements) will publish his second novel, The Death Of Bunny Munro, in September 2009 – ten years after And The Ass Saw The Angel.
- Blur bassist Alex James is now a successful cheese-maker, having just released a New Order-inspired variety called Blue Monday after winning Best Goat’s Cheese at the British Cheese Awards this year. According to James, Blue Monday has “quite a mellow flavour with sweet notes.”
- More rock star-dairy shenanigans – John Lydon, aka Johnny Rotten, is the new face of British table spread Country Butter, fronting a £5 million ad campaign. Is there a trend forming here? (If there is, it’s a weird one – lactose-intolerant Ed)
