To celebrate the release of their eighth studio album, Crash Love, AFI took to the stage at the world famous Roxy on Sunset thanks to local Los Angeles radio station KROQ. In front of an intimate crowd of hundred’s, rather than thousands that typically fill AFI shows, the band played a thrashing 14 song set filled with classics of the past, and a handful of Crash Love gems that are soon to be just that. Highlights of the night were too many to capsulize, but front man Davey Havok’s front flip into the waiting crowd on “Kill Caustic” and the stunning rendition of The Cure’s classic “Just Like Heaven” marked just a few of the moments that lit up the night. Reminiscent of 1995, AFI welcomed Nick 13 (Tiger Army) and Geoff Kresge (ex AFI/Tiger Army) to the stage to sing “Nyquil,” a track from the band’s first album, Answer That and Stay Fashionable. Electric performances of AFI’s radio singles “Miss Murder” and Crash Love’s “Medicate” put a cap on a night that will not soon be forgotten by the fan’s lucky enough to be present that night.
Fans of AFI who could not be at the show now have the chance to watch a handful of videos from the epic evening on KROQ.com. To find out when and where you can see AFI live, visit AFireInside.net/events. Crash Love is in-stores now and available everywhere good music is sold.

Katie Holmes performed an homage to the legendary Judy Garland in which she dances to and sing the iconic performer’s classic ‘Get Happy’ on the 100th episode of ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ last week. Katie was received with mixed reviews, most on the negative side, for the hyped up performance which was mediocre at best. If you’re wondering why she took on this venture in the first place, the 30-year old actress is one of the founding members of the Dizzy Feet Foundation which provides scholarships and assistance to talented underserved youth. Katie said “I think it’s important for children to experience music and dance. Every child should have the opportunity to discover what it is they like and have access to the very best in that pursuit.”

While performing at the Tony Awards together with his band Poison, Bret Michaels had a run in with some stage equiment that hit him on the head while he was exiting the stage. A descending set piece apparently just smacked Bret Michaels on the noggin and nocked him to the ground. Even though the injury seemed severe, it appears Bret Michaels didn’t brake his nose. This might be the revenge of one of Bret Michaels’ old guitars, or maybe all of the equipment he’s ever used is preparing a big push against him for the unruly exploitation of all of these past years.

Sources are saying that, after a secret meeting at the Beverly Hills Hotel recently, Michael Jackson made it clear that he will not be performing with Janet and the Jackson 5, even if the organizer will sue him for it. It was earlier reported that Jacko’s manager signed a deal on behalf of the former King of Pop to perform with his family at Cowboy Stadium in Texas in 2010. Part of the deal was to not sign any other concert deal for 18 months but we all know that Jacko signed a deal for his London concerts scheduled to begin in July. Patrick Allocco of AllGood Entertainment recently resubmitted his offer for Jacko to perform. For the one night event, he will get $3 million, Janet $1 million and the brothers $500,000 to split. If Jacko refuses the final offer, AllGood Entertainment will proceed with suing him and his family.

Dolly Parton’s ‘9 to 5: The Musical’ premiered in Los Angeles on Tuesday night with a couple of minor glitches but one big surprise to pick up the slack. The diva herself was there to introduce the show. Dolly welcomed the audience and engaged them for a bit. She said that since it was the first showing that there might be some stopping and starting but she promised that she will get up to do a show if that happens. The first act started and about halfway through, the moving set came to a stop. After a moment of silence, Dolly kept her promise and got on stage. She answered some audience questions and then started to perform. She sang ‘9 to 5’ and ‘I Will Always Love You’.
