Kiss M&Ms

KISS M&M's will hit stores in October.

Get up and go

Chad Smith says the Red Hot Chili Peppers are planning to reunite in September. "Everybody was like, 'Y'know, I really like having this time off, not being a Chili Pepper and doing other things...It'll be two years in September, so now we're ready. You can't force people to play when they don't want to play or aren't ready to play or whatever -- not in our band, anyway."

Back-Alley Boy

Dave Grohl says he wanted his hometown of Warren, Ohio to dedicate an alley and instead of a street because the alley is where he used to hang as a kid. "When I was a kid, I used to love to come here. This is one of my favorite places in the world." On Saturday, Dave Grohl's hometown of Warren, Ohio honored him by renaming an alley after him. Market Alley is now know as David Grohl Alley.

Beer for the Kid

Kid Rock says he is stunned by the success of his new beer. "I thought we'd be making beer and having fun, like, 'Ah, we'll get free beer, and it will have my name on it.' "But it's mind-blowing. We have f**kloads of orders, and no one's even tasted it yet."
