 Credit: David BergmanJon Bon Jovi has opened up about the day his 19-year-old daughter overdosed on heroin.
"It was horrible, a horrible moment. It was my worst moment as a father," he tells the British newspaper The Daily Mirror.
The 51-year-old rocker recalls getting a 2 a.m. call from his daughter Stephanie Bongiovi, who was phoning him from a hospital near her upstate New York college.
"The first thing she said, 'I'm all right,' but then she said this is what happened," Bon Jovi remembers. "You wake up, you shake it off and put your shoes on and say, 'OK, I am on the way home.'"
Bongiovi, a student at Hamilton College in Clinton, New York, and her 21-year-old companion, Ian Grant, were initially arrested in November and charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance. Those charges were later dropped because of a New York state law that prohibits prosecution of people who have overdosed, as well as those who help them seek medical care.
For Bon Jovi, who says he has never touched drugs despite his rock-star life, the incident was a wake-up call as a father.
"She was by no means sticking needles in her arms," he tells the Mirror. "But there's a lot of synthetic stuff in the world and a lot of temptation and access and pressures that just a generation ago you and I didn't know about.”
Bon Jovi also discusses with the Mirror lead guitarist Richie Sambora abruptly leaving the band's tour for "personal reasons."
"Love him, spoken to him once. I talked to him once, once in six weeks and 18 shows," Bon Jovi says. "He's not fired; we didn't have a fight. It certainly isn't about money."

 Blind Pig RecordsRay Manzarek, founding keyboardist of The Doors, died Monday at age 74 at a medical clinic in Rosenheim, Germany, after a long battle with bile-duct cancer. At his side was his wife of 45 years, Dorothy, as well as his brothers Rick and James Manczarek.
Ray co-founded The Doors in Venice Beach, California, in 1965 with singer and fellow UCLA film student Jim Morrison, along with guitarist Robby Krieger and drummer John Densmore. Driven by Morrison's charismatic stage presence, powerful voice and poetic lyrics, as well as Manzarek's hypnotic, jazzy keyboards, the band soon shot to stardom on the strength of such classic hits as the chart-topping "Light My Fire" and "Hello I Love You." The group continued to release popular albums and singles until Morrison's death from heart failure at age 27 in July 1971. On the strength of The Doors' enduring body of work, the band has gone on to influence and inspire countless other artists, while selling more than 100 million albums worldwide.
After The Doors broke up in 1973, Manzarek continued his music career, releasing a number of solo albums and collaborative albums. From 2001 until his death, Manzarek performed Doors music in a popular touring group with Krieger that most recently was called the Manzarek-Krieger Band. Manzarek also has recorded albums with blues guitarist Roy Rogers and poet Michael McClure, has produced music by such bands as Echo and the Bunnymen and X, and has written a memoir and two novels.
Commenting on Manzarek's death, Krieger said in a statement, "I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of my friend and bandmate Ray Manzarek today. I'm just glad to have been able to have played Doors songs with him for the last decade. Ray was a huge part of my life and I will always miss him."
Besides his wife and brothers, Manzarek is survived by a son, Pablo Manzarek, as well as three grandchildren -- Noah, Apollo and Camille. No official funeral plans have been confirmed. The family is suggesting that rather than sending flowers, fans can make a donation in honor of Ray to StandUp2Cancer.org.

 Capitol RecordsRod Stewart's latest album scored a #7 debut on the Billboard 200 chart, but it's made an even bigger splash on the other side of the pond. Time, the first full-length collection of original tunes the singer's released in more than 20 years, has topped the U.K.'s Official Albums Chart.
The milestone not only marks Stewart's eighth #1 album overall in his home country, it also gives him a U.K. record for the most years between chart-topping releases: 34. Rod's last album to reach #1 was 1979's Greatest Hits Volume 1 compilation. The previous record was held by Tom Jones, whose album Reload topped the Official Albums Chart in 2000, 32 years after Jones's studio effort Delilah did.
"Well, knock me down with a feather," Stewart commented to OfficialCharts.com. "Just goes to show there's still plenty of songs left in the old violin. Thank you!"
By the way, the worldwide record for the most years between chart-topping albums is 38 years, set by Bob Dylan, whose 2009 release Together Through Life was his first #1 on the Billboard 200 since and 1970's New Morning.

 Chapman BaehlerStone Temple Pilots may be without a lead singer, but that hasn’t stopped the group from making new music. They've partnered with Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington to create a new single, "Out of Time," which they debuted at an event on Los Angeles over the weekend. You can score a free download of the studio version of "Out of Time" at StoneTemplePilots.com.
"Chester has a one-of-a-kind voice that we've admired for a long time," said guitarist Dean DeLeo in a statement. "We know Linkin Park will always be his priority, but we thought it would be cool to try something together. We managed to find the time to record a song and we're all really happy with the result."
Bennington adds that he was thrilled to get the chance to collaborate with Stone Temple Pilots on "Out of Time." "I've loved STP since I was 13 years old and they've had a huge influence on me," says Bennington. "When the opportunity came up to do something creative with them, I jumped at the chance. The guys in Linkin Park have been incredibly supportive of me undertaking this project while I've continued to work on new music with LP."
STP has yet to reveal if Bennington has recorded more music with them, or indeed if he'll take over for former frontman Scott Weiland, who was dismissed from the band in February.

 Jim McCrary/RedfernsOne-time Derek and the Dominos drummer Jim Gordon, who's been in prison since killing his mother in 1983, was denied parole last month and won't be able to apply for it again until at least 2018. According to Rolling Stone, a transcript from the hearing reveals that a California parole-board panel considers the 67-year-old musician "a danger to society if released from prison," noting that he's unwilling to take court-ordered medication.
Gordon stabbed his 71-year-old mother to death at her Los Angeles-area home in June 1983. At the time of his arrest, he claimed that he was driven to the act because he'd been hearing the voice of his mother tormenting him for years.
Rolling Stone reports that Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney Alexis de la Garza told the panel that Gordon continues to exhibit symptoms of schizophrenia and that he's "medically and psychologically noncompliant." He added that the musician "is seriously psychologically incapacitated, and he is a danger when he is not taking his medication."
The transcript of the proceedings also reveals that at a 2005 hearing, Gordon thought that his mother was still alive. In addition, before the new hearing, the drummer would not meet with his lawyer, who unsuccessfully attempted to get the hearing pushed back until next year.
The panel suggested that Gordon needed to seek help for substance abuse, noting that it would make a final decision in August regarding the next hearing not taking place for another five years.
In addition to playing drums for Derek and the Dominos, Gordon also composed the famous piano coda that's heard at the end of the band's classic song "Layla." He also drummed on dozens of other popular albums, including The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds, John Lennon's Imagine, George Harrison's All Things Must Pass, Steely Dan's Pretzel Logic and Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs and Englishmen.
Before killing his mother, Gordon had experienced years of erratic behavior that included abusive incidents with women, problems with substance abuse and violent confrontations with fellow musicians. He also had checked himself into hospitals seeking help on many occasions.

The clip follows the adventures of an attractive young couple who enter a haunted-house attraction only to find themselves transported into an actual black-and-white horror movie.

During their ordeal, the guy himself gets wrapped up in mummy's bandages, while his lady friend winds up transforming into a sexy stripper donning a very scanty outfit along with part of a nun's habit. As for the band members, they don't escape unscathed, winding up as wax statues.

 Duff-Loaded.comDuff McKagan reports that Missionary Position vocalist Jeff Angell, the frontman for his new side project Walking Papers, had a chance to be lead singer for Velvet Revolver. The former Guns N’ Roses bassist tells Rolling Stone that Angell got a shot to try out for the supergroup before they chose former member Scott Weiland as their singer.
"I hoped at some point I would do something with Jeff; we're good bros and we share a similar path in certain aspects," he explains to the magazine. "Early on, when we were looking for singers for Velvet Revolver, I brought Jeff Angell down, about 2003. I've had a relationship with him and wanted to work with him for that long."
Walking Papers' self-titled debut album is due in stores on August 6. McKagan is previewing the release by streaming online one of the cuts, "I'll Stick Around," which features a guest appearance from Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready. You can listen to the tune now at RollingStone.com.

 Facebook.com/StingBack in 1989, Sting starred in a Broadway musical: a revival of The Threepenny Opera. Now, he's trying to raise some cash to bring his own production to the Great White Way.
The New York Post reports that the former Police frontman and his producing partner are trying to raise $15 million to bring their musical, The Last Ship, to Broadway next spring. Based on his autobiographical album The Soul Cages, the musical tells the story of a family of shipbuilders whose future looks bleak when the shipyard where they've worked for years is shut down.
A staged reading of the piece was conducted last week for potential investors, reports the Post. While Sting isn't going to star in the show, he did write the music and lyrics, and the tone is said to be "moody," "reflective" and "haunting." A source told the paper that the show is reminiscent of Billy Elliot in that it's about "working-class people who maintain their dignity in the face of adversity."
According to the Post, one potential investor said he thought the show was too "arty" for Broadway, but another pointed out that the musical Once was considered to be "arty" as well, and it won the Tony.
The Post also claims that Sting's been suffering from writer's block for several years, and working on this show is what cured him.
