Misfits Announce Anniverscary Tour, Foxy Brown: Still Incarcerated, Experience Hendrix Tour Brings Out Big Names All hell breaks loose: The Misfits have announced details for their thirtieth “Anniverscary” tour. Although original lead singer Glenn Danzig will not completely be back in the picture, ghouls will be happy to know that speculation has him making a few guest appearances, hopefully at the Halloween show in New York. Tickets are on sale now. Foxy Brown’s bid to leave Riker’s Island has been denied, forcing the three-month-pregnant MC to remain in jail until a September 7th court date. Brown was incarcerated for parole violations stemming from a litany of charges. Not sure if anyone actually watched the mannish version of Diddy’s Making the Band 4, but Diddy signed Donnie, one of the contestants who didn’t make the final cut, to a solo contract with Bad Boy. LCD Soundsystem will release “Someone Great,” from Sound of Silver, on October 22nd. The single will be backed by three remixes and one live performance. Also, LCD will release “45:33,” an MP3-only song they recorded for Nike-inspired workouts, on CD and vinyl for the first time in November. The five-city Experience Hendrix tour with feature virtuosos like Buddy Guy, The Doors’ Robby Krieger, The Rolling Stones’ Mick Taylor, Robert Randolph, Kenny Wayne Shepherd and many more pros.

Snoop Teams Up With Beckham, Winehouse Appeals Marijuana Charge, Arcade Fire Get Bottled It’s not quite Dr. Dre, but Snoop Dogg has found a new Los Angelino to collaborate with: David Beckham. Snoop and Posh Spice’s hubby have formed an unusual bond (Beckham has even taught Dogg’s kids how to play soccer). The Doggfather says, “We’re talking about putting our money together to do a movie. It’s incredibly exciting. We both love fashion too, and we might even do a fashion label as well.” Amy Winehouse will appeal the marijuana-possession fine she paid after being arrested in Norway. Winehouse didn’t know that agreeing to pay a fine was equivalent to pleading guilty. The incident ultimately forced the singer to cancel her appearance at next week’s MTV’s Woodies. RS Breaking Artist the Black Lips will star in Let It Be, a movie loosely based on the story of alterna-gods the Replacements, as evidenced by the film’s title, which shares its name with an album by Paul Westerberg’s outfit. Repeat, this has nothing to do with the Beatles. The Arcade Fire have become the latest victim of the old British pastime of “bottle-hurling,” as Win Butler took one in the face during the band’s Halloween show in Nottingham. After a second bottle narrowly avoided hitting Butler, the AF singer declared the band would “never play Nottingham again.” Bling king Jacob the Jeweler will plead guilty to two counts of making false statements to investigators. Jacob also faced more severe money laundering charges, but those charges have been dropped thanks to the plea deal. He’s expected to serve roughly three to four and a half years in jail.
