My Bloody Valentine Return With First Gig In 16 Years

Sixteen years after they last took to the stage together, My Bloody Valentine were reunited in London last night (June 12th).



The gig was the first of two warm up shows at the ICA venue ahead of the bands UK tour, which gets underway at the Roundhouse on June 20th.



Unsurprisingly, the band played a set which resurrected classics from their pioneering ‘Loveless’ and ‘Isn’t Anything' albums.



The remainder of the set comprised of songs from their various EPs and ended with a twenty minute rendition of ‘You Made Me Realise’.



You can purchase tickets for the band’s forthcoming London residency through Gigwise here.



Alternatively, you can call our ticket hotline on 0871 230 1098 for more information.

LOS ANGELES - Rodney King will appear in the next instalment of VH1's "Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew."

The show features famous people dealing with drug and alcohol problems aided by celebrity addiction specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky.

King, whose 1991 beating by Los Angeles police led to deadly rioting the next year, prompting him to make a famously earnest plea for peace, will appear with actor Jeff Conaway, former Guns 'N Roses drummer Steven Adler, Rod Stewart's son Sean and actress Tawny Kitaen.

The new season is slated to premiere in October, the network said Tuesday.

Lucas causes havoc on Celebrity Hijack

'Little Britain' star Matt Lucas has already made his mark as the first personality to act as Big Brother on the new series 'Celebrity Hijack'.
Before the contestants entered the house Lucas chose 20-year-old politician John Loughton as his guinea pig to complete a secret task.
Big Brother gave John a tiny earpiece and instructed him to say only whatever he heard through this earpiece, word for word.
He was told that completing the task successfully would earn him immunity from all evictions but failing would mean that he would be up for every single eviction.
As the other housemates entered the 'Celebrity Hijack' house, Lucas directed John to greet them, make unusual comments to them and behave oddly around them.
As part of his task he was asked to massage other people's shoulders, hug other housemates for too long, ask someone to rub his cramping leg, talk about cake a lot and dance frantically while singing to himself.
After successfully completing the task, Lucas later informed John that he had won a place in the final.
The other housemates were also told about John's task and his immunity from the public vote.

SEX AND THE CITY star KRISTIN DAVIS longs to have a baby and is willing to adopt if she fails to find a man to start a family with.

The 43-year-old star is currently single and fears she may never find a longterm partner to settle down with.

She tells U.S. magazine Health, "I would love to have children. I would love to adopt."

But the actress insists she hasn't totally given up hope of finding the love of her life and forming a more conventional family unit.

She adds, " I would still like to find a man and have a baby with him. I haven't given up."

Panic At The Disco Measure Their Success With Live Shows: 'You Can't Download The Concert Ticket'

Now that they're done with the online puzzles and have successfully weathered the storm of punctuation-gate, Panic at the Disco are finally getting down to the business of being a band.

Or, more specifically, a band on the road, promoting their second album and trying to convince the naysayers that they're more than just a flash in the pan. Which is why, in their current headlining slot on the Honda Civic Tour, they've ditched the 10-ring circus that accompanied them on their last jaunt, replacing all that ephemera with a stripped-down, focused set that showcases the music and not, say, the contortionist mimes.

So how's business been? Well, it sort of depends on how you look at things. Because while that second album, Pretty. Odd., has garnered positive reviews, it's yet to really catch on with consumers (it debuted at #2 on the Billboard albums chart back in March but has currently sold less than 250,000 copies). And while most bands might be all doomy and gloomy about those numbers, Panic are more content to focus on more tangible (and, some might argue, accurate) ways of measuring success.

"It's really strange. Even on the last album, it didn't come out of the gates and have success, but there were weeks where we'd sell 50,000 records, and the album had been out for almost a year," guitarist Ryan Ross said. "And that kind of stuff doesn't seem to happen anymore, so it's really hard to judge how the album is doing based on record sales, you know? We look at that, and we don't really know what that even means. All we can go off is being on this tour and seeing that people are getting into the new stuff, and that's the only way we can tell firsthand if things are going well or not."

"It's a really weird time for music and it's hard to tell where you stand, and all the things that used to tell you about your band have kind of gone away. So how you perceive yourself has changed," drummer Spencer Smith added. "Luckily for us, rock bands have always been about playing live, [which is] good for us, because we're a real band who plays our own instruments, so we love being able to do it. And luckily that's always going to be there, because you can't download the concert ticket."

And while Odd.'s reception has forced Panic to rethink the concept of success, the record has also put them in some rather unfamiliar territory: They've become (sorta) elder statesmen in the Fueled By Ramen/ Decaydance/ Pete Wentz universe that has dominated the rock scene for nearly three years now. And as such, they've begun to enjoy the perks of life as a big-time rock act ... on a decidedly Fueled By Ramen/ Decaydance/ Pete Wentz budget, that is.

"We've got some flowers onstage now — they're fake though," Smith laughed. "They have to be, because a month into the tour, they probably would've gotten shredded up."

"We had an idea to get a tour plant to take care of, in that whole spirit, but we have yet to do that," bassist Jon Walker added. "You know, maybe a fern or something. A ficus."
