ROCK IS LIFE PRESENTS: FAVORITE SITES 2005
by George Dionne

Even I know that there's more to the web than Rock Is Life (not bloody much!), so I'd like to share with you some of my favorite music and non-music related websites:

www.blabbermouth.net

This is where I go for my hard rock news. Rumors, hearsay, facts, and more can be found here. Updated constantly.

www.my.yahoo.com

Select the news and information that you want, the way you want it. Plus access all of the features that Yahoo! provides, such as mail, maps, groups, and search tools to name a few.

www.melodicrock.com

If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have discovered the whole melodic rock/AOR scene that was still alive and well on the other side of the globe. Although I don't care for their lengthy reviews, Melodic Rock offers previews, samples, news, and a pay site that features lots of rare material.

www.snopes.com

Do you ever wonder if that e-mail your friend sent you with that amazing picture is real? Ever wonder if they'll find that little read head girl that's missing? Ever wonder is Walt Disney is really frozen? Snopes exposes urban legends to be fact or fiction. I must say that you will be surprised at what is fact and what is a hoax.

www.rajah.com

I used to be a big fan of wrestling, but as I got older I kind of grew out of it. Every now and then I get curious as to what's going on in the WWE. Rajah keeps you updated daily about the WWE's television and pay-per-view programming, plus backstage news and rumors you can't get from anywhere. Although, they've been LOADED with advertisements lately.

www.metalsludge.tv

Who says that eighties and early nineties metal scene is dead? Metal Sludge covers the music scene with quick with and a sense of humor. There biggest draw of course is their famous 20 questions, rewinds, 3 winds, back-4-mores, and gossip board.

www.94hjy.com

Rhode Island & Massachusetts' home of rock and roll. A great mix of the old stuff and the new stuff. I've also won tickets to many a great concert from them.
