After failing to show up for a string of gigs due to “exhaustion,” Amy Winehouse defied the odds and graced the stage at the Eden Project this week only reportedly to forget the lyrics, hit herself with her microphone and spit at the crowd. One thing remained poised — Winehouse’s trademark beehive, which you can watch her assemble in a British train station. The Led Zeppelin roller coaster is the first ride completed at the Hard Rock Park in Myrtle Beach, SC, slated to open in spring 2008. Former Byrds member Roger McGuinn says the band should remain a “great memory” despite reunion attempts by other members, including David Crosby. Cyndi Lauper will assemble a True Colors compilation disc featuring performances by the acts on last month’s tour of the same name to raise money for the Human Rights Campaign. The European Court ruled telephone and ISP companies don’t have to hand over subscriber information to record labels seeking illegal downloaders. Meanwhile on U.S. shores, the RIAA sent out its sixth wave of pre-litigation settlement letters to 23 colleges.
