Gwen Stefani and No Doubt are getting back together for a tour this summer, and in preparation for that they’ve decided to cover another song from the 1980s. Adam and the Ants‘ olde-tyme ode to highway robbery “Stand And Deliver” gets the honors, in a cover that makes the “band” part of No Doubt kind of irrelevant; really, this song could have slid into a platinum edition of Love. Angel. Music. Baby. pretty easily. Original after the jump.

Ticketmaster Is Not Having A Great Week, But Neither Are Ticket Buyers
Fri Feb 27 2009 by Dan Gibson
A few weeks ago, Bruce Springsteen fans were up in arms after tickets to his hotly anticipated homecoming shows appeared on Ticketmaster’s “secondary market” site TicketsNow suspiciously close to their onsale time. But somehow, the ticketing behemoth managed to top itself, faux pas-wise, with the No Doubt reunion shows in the band’s homeland of Orange County, Calif.: Tickets to those shows were listed on TicketsNow some 24 hours before they went on sale to fan club members, and more than a week before they were available to the general public. Bet you Irving Azoff is hoping that the local Congressional representatives aren’t big Gwen Stefani fans.
Madonna Finances Her Divorce On The Road
Thu Feb 12 2009 by Lucas Jensen
Though I have gone to great pains here to debunk the idea that “making your money on the road” is a viable option for most independent artists, it ain’t so bad if you’re a hegemonic musical force like Madonna. Billboard’s Top Money Makers list is out, and the trade pub rightly notes the correlation between big-time tours and the top moneymaking acts. Recall that Madonna only had the 50th-best selling album in 2008, and you won’t be so surprised to find out that the artists with the biggest bankrolls are the same ones who have the hugest tours. The top 20 artists, and their 2008 grosses so you can feel even poorer than you already do, after the jump,
This Just In: Artists Who Don’t Sell Many Records Even Less Likely To Sell Lots Of Clothing
Thu Feb 5 2009 by Maura
Ad Age reports that celebrities trying to earn some extra scratch from their name’s wattage might want to start looking somewhere that isn’t a fashion “partnership” with a retail outlet, what with the economy continuing its long, slow swoon and chains all over the country struggling to keep their lights on. Tough break, musicians who want to avenge those rejected FIT applications!
Our “Now!” Comps Have So Much Growing Up To Do
Fri Aug 29 2008 by Dan Gibson
Britain’s The Independent celebrates the 70th incarnation of the pop-comp series Now! with an extensive list of the hits and misses among the compilation’s selections, which number 2,701 songs over the last 25 years. While the quality level of our Stateside counterpart doesn’t nearly reach the heights of the original (the first volume of the UK series featured “Love Cats,” after all), surely I could do the same for the 28 volumes that have shown up on our shores, and in our stores.

Gavin Rossdale Gets His David Cook On
Wed May 28 2008 by anthonyjmiccio
After a proud decade of fighting the flow, screaming “but I love Jesus Lizard!” and working with indie metal vets, Bush’s Gavin Rossdale has sucked it up and is finally dishing out some Cook rock. Maybe he was tired of Gwen Stefani bouncing a kid on her lap and looking bored while he played his demos to her. Maybe he hoped people would yell for a ballad other than “Glycerine” at shows. Either way, I’m guessing we won’t see another album from Institute, the band of Helmet and Rival Schools vets that put out an album in 2005.
