Anyone who loves music will tell you that they love learning tid bits about their favorite artists.

After the jump, MOG offers a condensed ...

Don't know if this will work or not… but SPREAD THE WORD: Pretty Much Amazing is calling out bands everywhere (especially ones who email [...]

I guess Lily Allen and GQ are friends again. Despite being ejected from GQ's Man of the Year event in September of this year (she was asked to leave by her own label for being drunk, loud and obnoxious), Allen is gracing the January cover of the men's magazine. And for the first time ever, I think grace might be the right word to associate with the pop princess. After spending most of this y...
