The latest poll pitted four late night talk show gurus against each other. The winner? Well, we can't always get what we want, and in this instance, we couldn't settle the debate between the standard in the 11:30 slot, and the newcomer.

David Letterman and Conan O'Brien split the votes, right down the middle, 50-50.

I guess we'll have to wait for the first batch of ratings to see the real winner!

Pearl Jam re-releases Ten - Phil DiMartino

The jukebox had a full slate this week, covering the latest and greatest in classic rock, all while playing some good ass good times rock and roll.

The crew started off the show by talking about Meat Loaf's up-coming album. The rock opera superstar's newest project can only be described as epic. This also led the Juke Box Heroes to talk about The Red Hot Chili Peppers and how they're linked to Joaquin Phoenix's new hip hop album. While you probably won't ever want to listen to that album, you can listen to the segment below.

Classic Rock at the Grammy Awards!

2009-02-08T17:27:00.003-05:00

Check out the BEST in good times rock 'n' roll, tonight at the Grammy's. While the generally safe route is to avoid award shows at all costs, you may be in for a treat this year.

Some notable performances include U2, Paul McCartney featuring Dave Grohl, Robert Plant, and BB King.

U2, seen here in an incredibly tool-ish picture, will perform at the Grammys

The nominee list also doesn't suck quite as much as it always does. Although you'll have Lil' Wayne SHOVED down your throat for most of the night, some cool nominees include Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Eddie Vedder and Neil Young fighting to destroy John Mayer in the Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance category.

AC/DC, Radiohead, Disturbed and Rob Zombie are also nominated for various rock categories.

So enjoy. And for a fun drinking game, take a shot every time you see Lil' Wayne's face. It's a win win, because not only will you get absolutely hammered, but it will numb the pain of having to look at him all night long.

Lil' Wayne gets shut DOWN

2009-02-06T17:36:00.000-05:00

The latest JukeBox poll asked you, the people, to decide whether or not Lil' Wayne was worth...well worth anything at all.

You voted NO!

A resounding 77% of you said you don't like Lil' Wayne.

GOOD WORK PEOPLE!

This week's poll asks you whether or not you believe Bruce Springsteen ripped off KISS with his new tune "Outlaw Pete." The 8-minute long epic sounds surpirsingly like "I Was Made for Lovin' You" by Gene Simmons and his band of face-painters.

Listen for yourself.

Vote or die, people.

We're going to be talking about a huge controversy out of Tucson, Arizona. The Comcast Cable Provider there either screwed up royally or pulled off a monumental practical joke. Right after Larry Fitzgerald gave the Cardinals the lead, something slipped through the filters. We'll tell you all about it.

We'll also be talking about superbowl ads. Which ones sucked, which ones were sort of cool, which ones dominated.

We'll give you the results from last week's poll....and it's not looking good for Lil' Wayne as the last minute results make their way into the ballot box.

Ziggy Was A Star...

2009-01-26T13:19:00.000-05:00

David Bowie is thinking about bringing back his famed character Ziggy Stardust for a music festival, according to ever-reliable reports across the blogosphere.

Rumors are that Bowie will be appearing at the Coachella Rock Festival in April. Bowie apparently refused to play the festival last year, and Mr. Purple Rain himself Prince took over as the headliner.

The Brits love their Ziggy, and one particular article ponders what Ziggy would be doing today. Check out the article here.

Oh-Bama, Run DMC in the Rock HOF and one more reason to hate Lars Ulrich (1-21-09)

2009-01-21T21:07:00.005-05:00

Today on the Juke, we chatted about the historic inauguration of Barack Obama, and listened to a clip of the master orators speech (even though he TECHNICALLY botched that whole being sworn in thing). Listeners chimed in with their thoughts on who may be a more ballin' President, and we settled on David Palmer of 24. Check out my thoughts on Barack's Inauguration.

Barack Talk - Phil DiMartino

We also discussed the validity of Run DMC's impending induction to the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame, and whether or not rap artists have a place in Cleveland. Find out whether or not the esteemed Jukebox Hero thinks DMC should be in the hall of fame.

Axl Rose Hates Dr. Pepper

2008-12-02T15:54:00.003-05:00

According to reports, Guns 'N' Roses frontman Axl Rose is quite displeased with Dr. Pepper.

As you heard on the Juke, the soda brand promised to give everyone (that's right everyone) a free drank if Axl came through with his promise to deliver the much anticipated album "Chinese Democracy."

As you probably know, Axl and his G'N'R remake actually released the album. Shockingly, it hasn't been called the worst album ever.

What you may not know is that Dr. Pepper folded under the pressure, and their site crashed with all the demand for free pop.

Now Axl and his lawyers are pissed, and they are letting the good doctor know about it. According to MTV.com, Axl's lawyer called the scheme "exploitation of my clients’ legendary reputation and their eagerly awaited album,” and said that the whole fiasco “brazenly violated our clients’ rights.”

Hey ya'll.....We forgot to tell you that according to BU, today is Monday this week, so when you tuned in yesterday and didn't hear us, and started hysterically crying and all that....it was for no good reason whatsoever.

As an apology, Kay found another funny Presidential campaign blog post. ENJOY!

Apologies for the lateness, but I forgot this major holiday due to all the atonement going around today.

I'm Old Greg!

Actually, I'm Tim, one of your favorite four WTBU Interns. Hailing from Long Island, New York, I worked at my high school radio station, WSHR (91.9!) last year hosting the Friday Funk Hour, along with calling various football and basketball games, and the occasional WSHR Sports appearance. I love any and all Ska music, and am pretty much into almost every other genre of music aside from country and Hip-Hop since the turn of the century. Since we've been told to post on the blog under threat of death, I'll likely be the resident random picture guy, since there's no end to the random shit I can find on the Interwebs. So here's looking forward to good times on Less iPod, More Jukebox!

Nice Gallons!
