			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>SO here&#8217;s the story: Green Day had their set cut in half so Usher could have more time at this &#8220;I heart music Festival.&#8221; Billie is drunk and freaks out majorly and then he and Mike smash their gear.</p>
<p>Are you serious Billie, come on this doesn&#8217;t make you cool, this makes you look like a whiner baby. Give them a reason to give you more time, make your show un-missable. (not a word, but I don&#8217;t care.) I know you think your history gives you the right to more time, but keep on proving yourself! You can watch his rant here, but I warn you it&#8217;s FULL of f-bombs and makes you angry after, or at least annoyed.</p>

<p>So that&#8217;s that, he did check into rehab, so I hope it helps him just get back to producing good music, putting on grreat shows, and loving what he does. </p>

<p><a href="http://blog.rogersbroadcasting.com/rock977/files/2012/10/redbulljump.jpg"><img src="http://blog.rogersbroadcasting.com/rock977/files/2012/10/redbulljump-300x168.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="168" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-594" /></a></p>
<p>Kevin and Cliff mentioned this was going to happen last week, then it got cancelled, then rescheduled for yesterday, and it actually happened!</p>
<p>Some guy (Felix Baumgartner to be exact) jumped from a capsule at the edge of space (128,000 feet up) and plummeted to the earth at the speed of sount (mach 1.24) and lived to tell about it. Don&#8217;t believe me, you can watch the video right here! </p>
<p><iframe width="500" height="375" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8Oq2Xl7oiws?fs=1&#038;feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>In fact there&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.redbullstratos.com/gallery/?mediaId=media1900707044001">whole website</a> (Click the purple words to see the site) dedicated to this &#8220;Red Bull Stratos&#8221; project. I spent a solid 4 hours on the site, just to warn you, it&#8217;s soooo interesting! </p>
<p>This Felix Fellow seems like quite the interesting character as well! I&#8217;d like to have lunch with him! You can see some of his quotes on <a href="https://twitter.com/RedBullStratos">twitter</a> if you follow @RedBullStratos. </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll just finish with this: &#8220;Sometimes you have to go up really high to understand how small you are&#8221; &#8211; Felix Baumgartner. </p>
