I’d like to personally raise my middle finger to those of you that have off for Veteran’s Day. Ace and I are slaving away at work, waiting for five o’clock like the dude in Loverboy’s “Everybody’s Working For The Weekend.” Anyway, let’s dig into the Leftovers mom threw in the fridge for us…

• Jambands.com features a nice round-up in their Elsewhere section, especially the piece on “Paul Is Dead”
• The Motley Crue movie is in pre-production, and Vince Neil spills the beans on a few notable guest stars
• Shocker of the week: Guns N’ Roses cancels a show
• Rod Stewart in the round comin’ atcha. Focus Rod, we want a Faces reunion tour pronto.
• Wolfgang Van Halen replaces the man with the Jack Daniels bass — I’m sure Valerie Bertinelli’s gotta be psyched to send her 15-year-old son on Van Halen tour with her ex-husband
• Another one from the living-off-the-past file: Something tells me this Leon Hendrix album is gonna suck
• Best assembly of guests on an album this side of We Are The World, Sam Moore is UAF (underrated as fuck)
• Taking a trip inside the new Grateful Dead vault, rumor has it 12/31/76 will be the first release early next year
• San Francisco readers, check out this amazing exhibit by Storm Thorgerson
• Chris Robinson and the Crowes can’t get a review without Kate Hudson’s name coming up somehow
• Earvolution reviews the recent Duo gig at the Bowery Ballroom
• A good interview with Bob Weir
• A web band is a pretty cool concept, check out Clipbandit’s video
• Perpetual Groove is has shifted their homebase (many thanks to HT’s superdee for the link)
• Charlie Hunter is touring with a new trio
• Corporate Daddy Glide Magazine gives away the new Sublime box set
• Blowing Rock resident Mike Gordon has a few words on Paul Languedoc
• Lastly, remember to enter the Johnny Cash: At San Quentin contest, which we’re closing on Sunday night…last chance to dance trance

Oh yeah, we’re working for the weekend, and it can’t come fast enough. Feel free to tell us what we missed and leave a comment below…
