Culture Buzz Folsom Prison Blues doesn’t belong to any one generation. It can get anyone moving, especially if you’re strapped into a jumperoo.
Celebrity Buzz Jesse Morris, the San Francisco busker known as the “Punk Rock Johnny Cash,” passed away this week at age 27. He was the true ghost of Johnny Cash, R.I.P.
Culture Buzz Aww. Now is that not the most adorable little pill-popper you've ever seen?
Johnny Cash's to do list is up for auction. #7 is the story of my life.

Five-year-old Wesley killed a man in Reno just to watch him die. So look out. Here he is playing Folsom River Blues at the Spring Coffee Shop Jam at The Columbia City Theater in Seattle.
5-year old Wesley takes on Johnny Cash's ode to sex, drugs, and murder. And my ovaries furiously plot a way to steal him.
Last night, not-so-secret cross-dresser and American Idol contestant scared the sh*t out of America (or, at least, Randy Travis and I) with his bizarre, smug, cheesalicious desecration of Johnny Cash classic “Ring of Fire.” It seems inevitable that the musical theater vet will soar through the competition, but not without polarizing the audience in the same way he completely confused Randy Travis, who claimed Lambert “threw [him] for a loop…although he seems like a very nice guy.” (Southern gentlemanly translation: “…the f*ck?”)
Celebrity Buzz Joaquin Phoenix just announced that he’s “not doing films anymore.” Apparently, he wants to focus more on his music. We think it’s suspect, especially since when he made the announcement, he was being followed by his own camera crews. “Joaquin In Real Life” reality TV show in the making, perhaps?
Somehow, Snoop Dogg repertoire gets weirder (and, consequently, more awesome) with this country-inspired ode to Johnny Cash. At this rate, Snoop’s entrance into experimental territory might make him the next Bjork. With braids. And weed. And songs about ladies’ butts.
