...Mexico. The familiar saga gets a Tijuana re-telling: sweaty, mustached older greaseball takes advantage of 14-year-old future nun, sleeps with some other chick in a tube top, then somehow convinces no-longer-virginal schoolgirl to…come and work in his bar? The formerly clean-cut Killers have all donned silk bolo ties for the occasion and made admirable attempts at growing greasy mustaches and under-washed ponytails of their own. Whether this is done for authenticity’s sake or simply to rip off Los Lonely Boys remains to be seen. Another question mark...

"Let me talk about... something that you've been reading about in the news lately," he told an audience of 9,000 soldiers and clean-cut Kansas college students Monday afternoon. "It's what I would call a 'terrorist surveillance program...
...DIED. LINK WRAY, 76, guitarist whose pioneering use of the power chord on his 1958 instrumental hit Rumble inspired rockers from Pete Townshend to Neil Young; in Copenhagen. Standing out in an age of clean-cut performers, Wray shook up the music world with his guitar distortions and menacing persona, laying the foundation for punk, metal and beyond. In the 1990s he resurfaced when his music was featured in several films including Pulp Fiction and Independence...
