If you are over 21, you are probably too old.

Kevin Costner also got married this weekend. His bride is only( :lol:

) 20 years younger then him

aslo on a sadder note, the man who invented Ernie Ball Strings died a few weeks ago.(mid Sept)

The music world mourns the loss guitar string maker Roland Sherwood "Ernie" Ball, who passed away this past Thursday at the age of 74 following a lengthy illness. Ernie Ball founded the Ernie Ball Company in 1962 and was a recognized pioneer in the instrument industry. "An artist and a business man in one, Ernie single-handedly revolutionized the music industry with the creation of Slinky Strings, so much so that everyone from the Beach Boys, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimi Hendrix to current artists like Blink 182 have Ernie Ball strings in common" commented Ernie's son and current company president Sterling Ball. Ernie is survived by his wife Ani, sons Sherwood, Sterling and David, daughter Nova and eight grandchildren.

Good Charlotte NewsToday marks the release of Good Charlotte's new studio album 'The Chronicles Of Life And Death' and their first ever live concert DVD, 'Live At Brixton Academy'.

Darker, more dynamic and in the words of Benji Madden, their "most personal album yet", the band blaze their way through their third studio album in amazing form, still retaining their melodic charm, but showing an edgy new evolution in their sound with elements of hip hop, classic rock, strings and introspective lyrics for what could easily be their best record to date.

And as if a new album wasn't enough, GC have gone the extra mile for you by unleashing 'The Chronicles Of Life And Death' as two different versions, with different closing tracks. Both the Life version and Death version have different artwork (designed by Benji), with the 15th track on Life being "Falling Away" while the 15th track on Death is "Meet My Maker."

Thats quite a clever ploy to make fans buy two of what is basically the same album for one extra song.

Random Name · Post by **Random Name** » 10/5/2004, 4:15 pm

Yeah, but all their fans are 15 year olds who live on the internet, who will just download the different songs to see which one they will like more.

Joe Cooler · Post by **Joe Cooler** » 10/5/2004, 4:17 pm

Yeah but the "hardcore" good charlotte" fans will buy both.
