Morning Buzz: Spinal Tap, Flaming Lips, Prince

:: Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer are going to play Spinal Tap and Folksmen jams around the country this spring. My guess is they need you to “Gimme Some Money.” Get it? That the name of a song. Get it?

:: Oklahoma lawmakers have been getting their hands dirty with plenty of important legislation. Seems the most pressing matter was naming Do You Realize? by The Flaming Lips as the state’s official rock song.

:: Ozzy might be losing a little money thanks to his “better” half. Sharon Osbourne has been sued for berating a contestant on Rock of Love: Charm School. Oh, the humanity.

:: The big-box-store-exclusive releases are starting to pile up nowadays. Next up? A Prince three-CD set.

:: The (International) Noise Conspiracy recently had a sit-down with the folks at ShockHound. They even talked Swedish. Like the chef.

Random tracks that don’t suck:
The Flaming Lips – Do You Realize? (Oklahoma’s official rock song)
These United States – Get Yourself Home
Auxes – Brother
