If we asked you to name the gentleman's gentleman who has played more than 15,000 shows over the course of his vocation, released 50-plus albums and won 14 Grammys, you could plausibly guess the artist in question is none other than B.B. King [ ].

There is no question King is a national treasure; he's been awarded everything from the "Living Legend" medal by the Library of Congress to the No. 3 spot on Rolling Stone magazine's best guitar players of all time name. Ever the consummate professional, King doesn't stop to tally up the book of Numbers or bask in the glow of his accolades.

The fall share of his current turn begins next month (9/6), and he will be on the road right up until the ending of the year.

Amy Poehler's 'Baby Mama' Drama

Jay-Z: Glastonbury Row Is Ridiculous

Rap superstar Jay-Z has defended his controversial forthcoming appearance at legendary music festival Glastonbury - branding the furore around his headlining slot "ridiculous".
Festival organisers' decision to book the hip-hop mogul as a headliner for the festival next weekend has been widely criticised - with Oasis frontman Noel Gallagher insisting he was a "wrong" choice for the event.
But the rapper - real name Shawn Carter - is adamant that hip-hop does, infact, have a place at the annual British rock n' roll event.
He tells BBC Radio One, "It's ridiculous, if we don't embrace what is new, how do we progress?
"I've never actually experienced anything like that before. It's 2008, what is that about? That's such old school thinking, that's not even how the world thinks anymore. So I was really taken aback (by the criticism)."

Sound Associates Makes Free 'Concerts in the Park' Intimate Concert Hall Experience, for 50,000 to 150,000

Outdoor Metropolitan Opera Summer Concert in Prospect Park, and all New
York Philharmonic 'Concerts in the Parks' will feature that Indoor Sound

NEW YORK, June 18 -- Sound Associates, Inc., provides the
sound design for the 2008 outdoor Metropolitan Opera concert and all New
York Philharmonic outdoor summer concerts again this year. The free
concerts begin with the biggest outdoor live concert in Met history Friday,
June 20, on Prospect Park's Long Meadow, followed on Tuesday, June 24, by
the first of the New York Philharmonic's "Concerts in the Parks" on Central
Park's Great Lawn.

The Met concert features duets by Metropolitan Opera soprano Angela
Gheorghiu and tenor Roberto Alagna accompanied by the 30 voice Met Chorus
and 78 piece Orchestra performing the music of Verdi, Puccini, Donizetti,
Massenet and others. The production presented a unique challenge to Sound
Associates, Inc., to design the mammoth sound system to cover the huge
crowd of up to 150,000 people, aligned with six jumbo video screens.
http://www.soundassociates.com

"Our goal is to take the vastness of these large outdoor concerts and
make the performance feel as intimate as possible for the audience,
regardless of where they are seated," said Domonic Sack, sound designer and
Executive Vice President.

For the Met concert, this technical achievement requires syncing the
orchestra and voices with video screens placed throughout the park and
linking them to fourteen forty foot delay towers, placed high enough so the
audience can see beneath them, programmed with millisecond video and audio
delays which increase as they get farther from the stage.

With the coordination of the towers the echo is eliminated. No matter
where an audience member sits they'll be able to hear and see a seamless
live performance.

"We're essentially building an outdoor concert hall with the sound
system. We retain an acoustic sound for as many rows as possible before the
speaker system kicks in, and that acoustic feel continues throughout the
entire park so those further back get the acoustic experience of those
closer to the front," he said.

"The main requirement for all the concerts is that the audience be able
to concentrate on the immediacy of the live performance, unaware of a sound
system," said Sack, himself a lyric tenor who will be celebrating his 20th
year in the Met Extra Chorus performing in Gotterdammerung, part of the
2009 production of the Wagner Ring Cycle

Sound Associates, Inc. built a completely different front end sound
system for the for the New York Philharmonic free "Concerts in the Parks"
tour to all five boroughs, East Islip, Long Island and Holmdel, NJ. The
first concert, in Central Park on June 24, will feature music by
Shostakovich, Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky and Sousa. All concerts are followed
by fireworks, no tickets are required. http://www.NYPhil.org

"The Central Park Philharmonic concerts are expected to attract forty
to fifty thousand people," said Sack, who is also currently designing the
sound for Broadway's A Tale of Two Cities.

The Met concert will be broadcast live on WQXR Radio at 96.3 FM, and
streamed on http://www.MetOpera.org

For over sixty years Sound Associates has been a leader in the world of
theater and professional sound and video design. With production facilities
in Yonkers, New York City and Atlanta, the Company has built sound systems
for over 1000 Broadway shows, live events and concerts including the Macy's
Thanksgiving Day Parade, civic installations, hearing rooms and houses of
worship. In October of 2005 Sound Associates, Inc. received the HHS
Secretary's Highest Achievement Award for their decades-long commitment to
making live theater more accessible to special needs audiences through
innovative use of technology.

Current Broadway productions built by Sound Associates, Inc.:

Passing Strange; Hairspray; The Lion King; August: Osage County;
Legally Blonde; Boeing Boeing; Thurgood; Macbeth; November; Xanadu; The
Little Mermaid.

Snoop Dogg - Snoop Dogg Calls On Princes To Overturn Uk Ban

Rapper SNOOP DOGG has called upon British royals PRINCES WILLIAM and HARRY to voice their support for him in his visa battle with U.K. authorities.

The star - real name Calvin Broadus Jr. - was prohibited from entering the country after he was involved in a brawl at Heathrow Airport in April 2006.

That ruling was overturned earlier this year (08) when Snoop wrote to the U.K. government to ask for his visa ban to be lifted.

But earlier this month (Apr08), Britain's Border Agency bosses confirmed they will be challenging the decision in court.

Broadus, who counts the young princes as fans, insists he hasn't done anything wrong and is determined to get back into the U.K. - even if it means consulting his royal acquaintances.

He says, "I'm not an aggressive individual at all and I've been wrongfully accused. I've not done anything to the people of Britain.

"I've never got into trouble, never violated him, never disrespected them, and I've always shown them love and turned up. What did I do? Who did I offend?

"You should talk to the Princes - William and Harry - I bet they want me over there!"

Sly Stone says he wants to make a comeback

Sly Stone says he wants to make a comeback

Sly Stone, the Howard Charles Evans Hughes of the Woodstock scene, rolled up on a hulking three-wheel tradition pearly painted the colour of lemons. His straggly hair's-breadth was tucked up at a lower place an ebony San Francisco Giants baseball cap with sparkly silver threading and draped on his shoulders was the type of shirt you don't bear to find out unless you materialize to be Flavor Flav's dry cleaner -- it was emblazoned with images of gambler's dice and the $100 face of Ben John Hope Franklin.

"I'm sorry I'm belatedly," he said with a somber expression as he walked into the empty, off-hours Temple Bar in Saint Nick Monica and pulled off his gray fleece gloves. Latterly? Stone was technically tardy by all of 13 minutes, merely the apology had the ring of a larger truth.

Sly and the Family Lucy Stone became famous for fashioning roughly of the most euphoric, genre-busting music of the deep sixties and early 1970s -- songs such as "Folk Affair," "Stand," "Dance to the Music" and "I Want to Take You Higher" -- simply the group's leader was likewise notorious as the slipperiest of stars: There were missed concerts, ugly dose escapades, arrests, promoter feuds and nasty infighting in the band. The music of the Family Stone was transcendent in the sixties, simply, by the centre of the followers decade, the dream was over and I. F. Stone was on his own and living on megrims.





On that point were retort attempts and albums with slightly pleading titles ("Heard Ya Missed Me, Well I'm Indorse" in 1976 and three years later "Back on the Right Caterpillar tread"), merely the arc of his history was turn grim, and he became more and to a greater extent reclusive.

Now, he says, he wants to rejoin the world of everyday people.

"I am set up to show people what I can buoy do," Isidor Feinstein Stone said, sipping a double margarita and smile that fellow toothy grin, although the sixties towering afro hairdo is long gone along with his funky saunter. His position and movement present the damage of the years when he was living particularly hard. Stone's mentum never leaves his clavicle when he talks and there's a tremor and hitch to his collarbones. The hunched 65-year-old R&B icon apologized to the photographer wHO had come to shoot his portrait.

"I'm like this because I felled seam away a cliff," he said, referring to a run out he said he took "walking in my yard" in Beverly Hills.

There's a signified that Stone went all over the boundary plenty of times in the old age when he was a J.D. Salinger of funk.

It's hard to peg down the facts with Stone, and it wasn't made easier by the fact that he did a clod of this interview with his manpower on a keyboard and speechmaking into a vocoder synthesizer that turned his words into trippy music -- it was like carrying on a conversation with Disneyland's Main Street Electrical Parade. "Derriere you infer me? Toilet . . . you . . . translate me? That's goooooood."

Harlan Fisk Stone, wHO seldom does interviews, did this one for a understanding that's of considerable grandness to him. He wants to mount a universe tour and he's back with some of the original Family Endocarp members: trumpet participant Artemis Robinson, saxophonist Kraut Martini and Sister Rose wine Harlan Fiske Stone. Right instantly he's got merely four dates booked, the first gear of them Friday at the House of Megrims on the Sunset Strip, followed the next night at the chain's Anaheim site.

More than that, he wants to prove himself to the euphony industry, make in the studio apartment with many of the stars he's influenced and hook a edward Young hearing.

Isidor Feinstein Stone always has been ace quirky bozo, just he seemed neither scattered nor feeble this day. He said the only real regret is letting down fans in the past. "I got in fights with promoters, and I had a real attitude then -- well, I form of distillery do simply not the same -- so I walked aside. Merely I forgot the people in the audience, the people wHO loved the music. The music meant a caboodle to people, and it comes with a responsibility."

Stone's longtime managing director, Boche Goldstein, is still with him, simply this year the isaac Bashevis Singer brought in Charles I Richardson, an old friend, to be his personal director, and that light-emitting diode flat to the freshly clubhouse shows, which include May dates in Minneapolis and Windy City. Stone has as well been increasingly active in the studio, including roger Sessions with funk giant George V Clinton and has, according to Richardson, "20 years' worth of amazing material that he can lick on." The singer himself says practically of that work has been influenced by the rap music eRA.

Sir Ralph David Richardson said that promoters possess made it clear that Stone is a trade good if he pot prove with the club shows that he and his band can buoy bottleful up the old magic. Gross sales to the shows have been sluggish. "If Sly shows he canful go the aloofness, we're told that the world is his oyster," Henry Hobson Richardson said. The Rock and roll and Roll Hall of Renown member has likewise reached come out of the closet to 2 other master copy House Stone members -- his brother, Freddie, and drummer Greg Errico -- and they may link up the revival meeting try after the club dates, Henry Hobson Richardson said.

Musical origins

SYLVESTER Dugald Stewart was max Born in Denton, TX, where the official town catchword is "north of ordinary," merely he grew up in Vallejo in the Bay Area, which in the 1960s could receive been called "east of weird." His music life history was a family thing right from the starting time. He was the moment of basketball team children, and he and Freddie, Rosebush and Vaetta were a gospel group called the Dugald Stewart Four and even issue a unity in 1952.

"When I was 4, I had a caper telling with SAM Alistair Cooke on a church show in Oakland Auditorium," Gemstone said, his fingers trailing crosswise the keyboard as he talked. "I recall people ran fine-tune the aisles, and I didn't know around the consequences or clapping or celebration. I didn't know what euphony did to mass. So I started running play. It scared me. That was the first gear chance I got to take in the response you could get from an audience by playing. Since then, I got that lapp feeling in a way, sometimes. You know: Run."

In the '60s, Stone studied trumpet, composition and music theory at a junior college and immersed himself in the roiling music tantrum of the Bay Area as a disc jockey at someone station KSOL in Oakland and as a producer in San Francisco (he worked with Grace Slick's first band, the Great Society, as well as with Bobby Freewoman and the Boyfriend Brummels).

Completely of this began to shape a medicine sensitivity that was part mortal and share psychedelic, a hybrid that would channel both the Phoebus Theater and Haight-Ashbury and, finally, create an necessary template for 1970s funk.

It's impossible to opine Prince or Crick James without Stone's influence, and his music would echo clearly in the records of Earth, Wind & Firing, Parliament/Funkadelic, the Buckeye State Players, Shuggie Otis and Publius Terentius Afer Trento D'Arby, to list just a few.
