Edward Opinaldo, PacificCoastNews.com I guess Sarah Larson must not have that much going on in her life, because she is still riding on the fact that she was once the girlfriend of George Clooney. And she won’t let anyone forget either that she wasn’t just ANY girlfriend, but the only girlfriend he EVER took to the Oscars. (we’ll see how that plays out this year though) But even though she may have been ‘the only’ in terms of Oscar dating material, the fact remains that the two could not hav
Even though they don’t speak anymore, Sarah Larson is still referring to her relationship with George Clooney, likely because that’s her only claim to “fame”. If she wanted to look like she was letting the whole thing go, you’d think she would find something else to talk about, or maybe just fade into the world that she came from. Is she writing a book or trying to land herself a modeling job? Of their relationship, she said that it was “nerve-wracking and stressful.” Of course it was, you w

...the 1980's. For those of us outside the 'hip 100' in London, the 60s was unremittingly grim but with a sense of possibilities - the white heat of technology, the final end of post war austerity, BBC2, Sunday colour supplements, heart transplants. Odd though it may seem for those whos knowledge of the 60s has been gained from books and documentaries - we didn't all spend the early 60s down the Flamingo listening to Georgie Fame then the late 60s floating into UFO to see the Floyd. The 70s wa

…Sunday happens to be the 69th birthday of a fondly remembered gentleman named Tom Meijer.

Interview: Martha Reeves. Photo taken in Helsinki, August 17 2008, by ilkka.rinne. Evidently, Martha Reeves is a morning person. Speaking to me from her home in Detroit, the 67-year-old Motown legend was already on her fourth interview of the day and it was still only 8.45 in the morning. As an elected, full-time city councillor a position she has held for the past three years Martha had to be at work in 45 minutes' time. In the meantime, she was more than happy to talk about her

John 'Mitch' Mitchell, legendary drummer with The Jimi Hendrix Experience, died yesterday. He was just 61. Before joining Jimi in late 1966 Mitchell was a desirable session drummer, playing on tracks by The Pretty Things, Georgie Fame and The Blue Notes, and The Riot Squad.

I hate to be a slag and talk about my birthday again, but it's neccesary. See, my birthday has always been the day that I share with Neil Young, Charles Manson, Bob Holness, Grace Kelly and The Official Birthday of Hip Hop. Now, it's gonna be bittersweet because, on my 30th, the world lost possibly the greatest drummer who ever lived in Mitch Mitchell. Most people lazily give the 'greatest drummer' title to Keith Moon, but I don't buy it. See, there's no doubt that Moon was an incredible stic
