Marilyn Manson rejoined with his original guitarist Twiggy Ramirez and apparently you can thank Robert Plant and Jimmy Page for getting them back together. No Robert and Jimmy weren't secretly plotting behind their backs to lure them both into the same hotel hot tub like some sort of rockstar Parent Trap. Page and Plant lead by example. Manson says after seeing Zeppelin reunite that it was probbaly finally safe for he and Twiggy. 

“The turning point for me was when I went

to see Led Zeppelin’s reunion show, and I

saw Jimmy Page and Robert Plant look at

each other for a moment, and they

probably said, ‘Holy shit, we wrote

‘Stairway To Heaven.'’ I wanted that look

again,” “I want to look at Twiggy and go ‘Holy shit, we wrote ‘The Beautiful People.’ I called him and

I said ‘Let’s go do this.’”

Slipknot fans, I have good news for you and there will be much rejoicing. Disturbed fans, you won't be bummed either. Both bands have new albums slated to come out mid-2008 and both bands will share a stage on the new Rockstar Mayhem Tour. It's like the Jager Tour except instead of making your mouth taste like licorice and your head feel like the inside of a corpse's colon, this sponsor keeps you up for three days straight vaccuming. No wait, that's meth. Well, Rockstar is like that, except in a convenient pop top.

The tour will run in July and August, with additional artists and dates to be announced. This is what Clown says about the new record.

"I can't stress enough

that we're going into this from a

different place. When we did (2001 album)

'Iowa', we hated each other. We hated the

world; the world hated us. The next

record ('Vol. 3') was like

rehabilitation. We had all this healing

that needed to happen. Now, everything

feels good because we feel good."

And finally, the RIAA may soon dead and gone, if only a few more record companies follow EMI's example. Here’s what the folks at the Feed at G4 TV reported:
