Former Iron Maiden frontman Paul Di'Anno faces jail time after pleading guilty to benefit fraud in which he scammed British taxpayers out of more than $67,500.

The 52-year-old entertainer, born Paul Andrews, claimed to be suffering from sciatica--nerve damage to his back--which ­prevented him from performing. However, Di'Anno was still rocking out with a band according to investigators, who found a YouTube video of Di'Anno at a live show, where he was jumping around on stage. ]]> Iron MaidenIronMaidenjailpaul DiAnnoPaulDianno Georgette Cline 2011-02-12T20:40:00+00:00 Sebastian Bach and Wife End 18-Year Marriage http://www.noisecreep.com/2011/01/01/sebastian-bach-and-wife-end-18-year-marriage/ http://www.noisecreep.com/2011/01/01/sebastian-bach-and-wife-end-18-year-marriage/ http://www.noisecreep.com/2011/01/01/sebastian-bach-and-wife-end-18-year-marriage/#comments Filed under:

Ozzy Osbourne has pulled the plug on two remaining dates of his arena tour due to an ear infection. The rock legend took the advice from his doctors to cancel the last performances after learning the infection would leave him unable to entertain his legion of fans.

In a statement on his official website, Osbourne canceled shows at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Mo., on Friday, December 10 and at the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minn., today, Dec. 12. The multi-platinum Rock & Roll Hall of Famer will reschedule the shows for later dates, which include Wednesday, January 12, 2011, in Minneapolis, and Friday, January 14, 2011, in St. Louis. ]]> Georgette Cline 2010-12-12T15:00:00+00:00 Slipknot and Stone Sour Member Speaks on Accomplished Guitarists http://www.noisecreep.com/2010/11/27/slipknot-and-stone-sour-member-speaks-on-accomplished-guitarists/ http://www.noisecreep.com/2010/11/27/slipknot-and-stone-sour-member-speaks-on-accomplished-guitarists/ http://www.noisecreep.com/2010/11/27/slipknot-and-stone-sour-member-speaks-on-accomplished-guitarists/#comments Filed under:

Jim Root, guitarist for bands Slipknot and Stone Sour, has no problem admitting he's a fan of his peers'_thumbnail.gifted guitar playing skills. The Iowa native sat down before a Stone Sour concert at the Hammersmith Apollo in London, England in late October to discuss which players of the stringed instrument he admires most.

Before naming a few veteran guitarists, Root explained his past process of finding new bands. "I don't like read magazines and follow music, you know," the guitarist said in an interview with LickLibrary.com. "When I come into stuff, I just kinda accidentally fall into it or I stumble onto a few years later. I always feel bad that I don't really source music out like I used to but honestly, the way the world is now, it's harder to."

Though the vocalist remembers his days searching through racks of CDs for hidden gems, he admits those days are long gone. "I used to love go to mom and pop shops and look for actual CDs," he revealed. "Now in America, you go to Best Buy and you've got a band's latest release and their greatest hits and that's it for their collection. You can't really get back catalogs of ACDC or whoever it is." ]]> Jim RootJimRootSlipknotStone Sour Georgette Cline 2010-11-27T18:00:00+00:00
