Zutons star denies snubbing Ronson

The Zutons frontman Dave McCabe has denied claims that he snubbed Mark Ronson when they met for the first time.

McCabe was finally given the chance to get to know Ronson at Glastonbury in June. Though Mark had recorded a cover of the band's track 'Valerie' with Amy Winehouse, they had previously had little liaison with each other.

"Apparently, I'd come across him once before - but I was drunk so I don't really remember it," Dave told the Daily Star. "The thing is, I think Ronson sometimes says things to make them well-grounded more exciting. He told someone that the first time he tried to speak to me I walked away. That's not true."

Next month The Zutons will outlet 'What's Your Problem', the second single from their You Can Do Anything album.

McCabe added: "It's one of our favourite tracks on the album simply I don't think you'll see Ronson covering it - I think 'Valerie' was a one-off."

   Year: 1999   
Tracks: 9




England's Dark Star was formed by trey erstwhile members of Levitation -- vocaliser and guitarist Christian Hayes, bassist Laurence O'Keefe (the Hope Blister), and drummer Dave Francolini. Like their early band (simply manifestly without guitarist Terry Bickers), the group's sound features dense, complex structures and needling guitars. The threesome debuted with the Graceadelica individual in belated 1998 and followed that with some other single, I Am the Sun, in March of the undermentioned year. The LP Twenty Twenty Sound appeared a month subsequently and was by and large reviewed positively, just failed to do practically commercially. A one-third single, About 3AM, supported the LP, as did a series of multi-format and remix singles. The banding underwent a hectic touring agenda, including a stint curtain raising for the Longpigs.

Lil Wayne Fans Duped By 'fake' Gig

Hundreds of LIL WAYNE fans were left fuming after a phony promoter tricked a nightclub into advertising a fake gig by the rapper.
More than 700 people turned up at Club Illusions in Alabama on Saturday (21Jun08) night, only to find the star was a no show.
And the club's manager has now revealed the gig was part of an elaborate scam by a bogus concert promoter, who promised a gig by the Lollipop star and then allegedly disappeared with over $45,000 (GBP22,500) from ticket sales.
Manager Esa Jones admits that all the club officials were fooled by the man, who identified himself as Tony Lee and claimed to be a representative for Coastal Boy Entertainment.
She says, "We got scammed real bad. It looked planned, they printed tickets, had radio advertisements, ticket locations, it looks so legit."
A police investigation has now been launched into the alleged fraud.
