  • Courtney Love Making Musical Theatre Debut in 'Kansas City Choir Boy' as Part of Prototype Festival in New York

    Courtney Love has been so caught up in tabloid-style news for years that we forgot that she produced some damn good music at one point and that an actual artist existed somewhere in there. Everyone can feel good about her newest project, a song-cycle-style play featuring herself and songwriter Todd Almond, should be a good splash of cold water on our cynical critics' faces. The former Hole vocalist/guitarist will perform in 'Kansas City Choir Boy' as part of the annual Prototype Festival, an event showcasing experimental theatre.
  • Lana Del Rey, Courtney Love Heading Out on Endless Summer Tour in May [SCHEDULE]

    Lana Del Rey will hit the road in May for the Endless Summer Tour in support of her newest album "Ultraviolence," which came out in June. Courtney Love will join the "Born to Die" singer for the first half of the jaunt, with another opener slated to take over at the May 28 gig in Indiana — to be announced.

  • Throwback Thursday: 'Violet' by Hole

    The biggest day in the footballs is right around the corner... the Super Bowl. The 2014 edition of the American tradition will see the Denver Broncos take on the Seattle Seahawks. The music of Denver... not so well established. There's OneRepublic (kind of), India.Arie (ish... she was born there) and a few other acts, but the city has no distinct sound. Seattle, on the other hand, has been the birthplace of hard rock for over two decades, most notably grunge, which as we all know, rose in 1991 like a black hole sun all thanks to Nirvana. But, we know enough about Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic. Instead, for this week's Throwback Thursday, let's look a little to the left of those guys at Hole.
