Michael Lang, the co-creator of the 1969 Woodstock Music and Arts Festival and producer of the subsequent versions in the 1990s, has died at the age of 77.
Alternative rock fans are likely to have more of a touching point with the 1994 and 1999 versions of the festival, which featured Metallica, Nine Inch Nails, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Green Day, Bush, The Offspring, and many more. Lang also attempted a 50th anniversary edition in 2019, which never came to fruition.

One of my favorite live bands of all time, Muse, is back and has announced new music on the way January 13th. Won’t Stand Down will be the name of the first track and it is definitely a return to the more hard rocking roots of the band. Seriously, its very metal. You can check out a snippet of the tune below, via an Instagram live video of Matt’s son head banging like a pro while the song plays in the background, and of course once its available we will play it as well.
An employee at McDonald’s has gone viral after posting videos on her TikTok that employees, like her, probably shouldn’t be doing. For example, using their own points on someone else’s order so they get the credit, not cool bro! Or adding more ice when a customer asks for more soda. All of these things she claims she’ll do IF a customer treats her poorly- fair enough!
Do you like tacos?! Do you like cheap tacos?! Of course you do! You’re an American! Taco Bell is now offering the most beautiful thing this country has ever seen, a $10 monthly subscription to their grub. You can get one taco DAILY, every day, for a month, for $10. If it’s a long month, that’s roughly 33 cents a taco, not too shabby! They’ve dubbed it, the ‘Taco Lover’s Pass’ and is available in their rewards program on their app. You can choose from one of the following: a soft taco, spicy potato soft taco, crunchy tacos and its Doritos tacos. They tested this already in Arizona and shocker, the Doritos tacos sold the most. The owners of Taco Bell hope this will make more casual consumers turn into regulars. SOLD!
Cats are notorious for being places they shouldn’t. Underneath everything, on top of the fridge, hiding in the fireplace- if you have one, you know. A pussy gato in Denver climbed into a recliner whilst his family was moving. They then donated the chair to a local thrift store… when the feline was still inside. Somehow, they had the idea to call the store hours later after not being able to find the cat. Apparently, the store reached out to Denver Animal Control and had an officer scan her chip, but it hadn’t been updated. Thankfully the family was still reunited with their precious kitty, because they knew this cat liked to hide in the chair. But, it’s a good lesson to remember, make sure your pet’s chip is updated y’all!
Git your boots on girl! It’s the honky tonk edition of Radiohead’s, “Creep” that actually sounds pretty fantastic turned into a country western jam. Go find your handsome cowboy, lay your head on his shoulder, and do a slow Texas Two Step to this! We present, Tommy Yorke and the Radiohead Boys!
The ‘Birds Aren’t Real’ conspiracy creator, Peter McIndoe, did something crazy on the WGN Morning News show and things got weird! How do they get more weird than a dude claiming birds are actually government bots spying on us? WATCH!
Jerry Bryant is such an amazing guy and what a fighter! Not only did he beat stage 4 lung and colorectal cancer, he was just released from the hospital after open heart surgery.

The team at JBTV have started a gofundme for him, all proceeds go directly to Jerry. Anything you can give will be greatly appreciated! Let’s get Jerry back to 100 so he can get back to work doing what he loves, bringing us all incredible bands on JBTV for the last 34 years. <3 Lauren Go HERE to donate!!
Its hard times out there for sure so a lot of us are looking for ways to earn some extra money. Did you know you could make a living selling farts? Its true, and a good one! In fact, one Tiktoker, and former 90 Day Fiancee contestant was making 30k a month doing it….until she had a medical emergency from breaking wind too much! Man, all this time trying to play it off like I wasnt the one farting in public when I could’ve been charging money for it? Talk about a missed opportunity. Also, hurting yourself farting has to be a top 5 most eombarrasing ER visit right?
It’s all fun and games until a juicy redhead intrudes on your relationship. The juicy redhead in question is Wendy’s. Yes, that Wendy’s. We’ll let our listener explain.
Do you think this man belongs to the streets? The conversation lives on Facebook!

Chicago sports writer, Hub Arkush, who has an NFL MVP vote, said he wasn’t planning on voting this year for Rodgers because he’s ‘just a bad guy” and “the biggest jerk in the league.” Rodgers clapped back and called him a “bum” and argued that Arkush should have his vote taken away because no matter what he does off the field, it’s what he does on the field that should be considered MVP status.
It’s the original post-break up version with different lyrics, but you’ll recognize the chorus. This is back from January in 1994 before the world knew how cool No Doubt was; you’ll also notice Gwen’s older brother is still in the band. He was the driving force to get her to join!
What the world needs now is a new Girl Scout cookie. We are in luck! There’s one coming! Cookie season starts in the next few weeks, and there’s a type this year called Adventurefuls. While at first the name may sound like some sort of Fear Factor scenario, the actually sound quite delightful: an indulgent brownie-inspired cookie with caramel-flavored crème and a hint of sea salt. Sign me up for 5 boxes please. <3 Lauren
If your’e looking for something to kill a bit of time, instead of doomscrolling yourself into depression on social media, you should check out this game called Wordle. Its like the old game Mastermind, in that you get 6 tries to guess the word of the day, each guess revealing if you have the right letters in the right places or not. Its super simple, and for some reason, super relaxing…probably because there are no pop up ads or bells and whistles, just you, some letters, and your brain. Even sweeter, the guy who created the game did it to give his partner something to do to kill time during the pandemic. How romantic!
Josh Wardle, a software engineer in Brooklyn, knew his partner loved word games and created a guessing game for the two of them called Wordle. Just over two months after releasing it to the rest of the world, the once-a-day game has over 300,000 players. https://t.co/D1oBCwgpbW
