After 18 long years with Geffen Records, it seems Rob Zombie has finally decided to pack his stuff and move to Roadrunner Records. The reason… well, an honest one, truth be told: they just didn’t give Rob Zombie enough time to promote his new record. This is what the singer said about the move: “It certainly wasn’t an easy decision to make after all this time, but it had to be done. I love this new record and wanted to surround myself with an excited new group of people who can reignite my enthusiasm for working within a hard rock record label. Roadrunner seems to be the perfect place.” Right… well, the boys at Roadrunner will probably make sure that Rob Zombie gets all the bang for his buck that he needs. Let the sellout commence!

Iconic rock band Kiss got the kiss off from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and they are none too pleased about it. The band released their first album in 1974 and easily fulfill the requirement of 25 years since an artist’s debut for nomination. However, the rockers are nowhere to be seen on the ballot. Gene Simmons said “There are disco bands, rap bands, Yiddish folk song bands in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but not Kiss. I believe we have more gold records in America than any other group, but it’s OK.” I don’t think he’s going to help their campaign any though as Gene has made a jab at the Hall of Fame’s top officials saying “A lot of those guys on the board can go and get my sandwich when I want, and I mean that in the nicest way.”

Poison is set to hit the road this summer, but prior to that they’re getting the band back together to sue their record label.
According to a lawsuit filed today in L.A. Superior Court, the band claims Capitol Records conned them, underpaying them royalties for years.
They also claim they were shortchanged by EMI Music Marketing over a deal they made in 2005 for their greatest hits album, which featured a new track entitled “We’re An American Band.”

Rumors flew that Eddie Van Halen wasn’t feeling so well. This came after his band Van Halen cancelled a sold out North American tour and said he was “undergoing a battery of comprehensive medical tests.”
At the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards on Saturday, his son Wolfgang assured fans that he’s doing fine. He said, “Don’t listen to the rumors – he’s doing great – seriously!”
Eddie’s ex Valerie Bertinelli says he hasn’t entered rehab, although he has previously battled substance abuse and dealt with mouth cancer. Wolfgang says they are picking up the tour in mid-April and have added a show in Reno on April 17th.

Remember Rikki Rocket? Yeah, me neither. He was the drummer for Poison. Now, he runs around doing duet performances with his fiancee Melanie Martel. Her, I know. She was a hot singer in Nashville back at the Fiddle and Steel.
Anywho, seems Rikki has been arrested on rape charges, stemming from an incident that occurred in September. It happened in Neshoba County, Mississippi. Seems he was arrested at LAX airport as he returned from New Zealand but was released as of now.
No word on the next step for police.
