The Money Shot: Liz Phair Knows What Sells...

"Barely dressed in hip-hugging hot pants, high-heeled sandals and a sleeveless black vest that afforded generous exposure to a purple bra/bikini top, Phair could have passed for a Bunny in the old Playboy Club. And while the 41-year-old mother no longer suffers stage fright, her mannerisms were stiff and her presence awkward. Her amateurish command of the guitar paralleled the limitations of her thin, wavering singing."

- The Phair sex barely awake in 'Guyville'

The Money Shot: This Round Goes To The RIAA...

"A U.S. House subcommittee passed a bill Thursday requiring radio stations to pay royalties to performers. The bill passed on voice vote in the House Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property. Opponents say the apparent unanimity of the subcommittee masks opposition in the full committee and the House. The National Association of Broadcasters, which is fighting the measure, has secured support from a majority of House members to block it."

The Money Shot: Queens' Frontman Loves Our Collective Vagina...

"I never said, nor suggested, that being gay is wrong, but apparently, based on your outrage to my flu-infused rant, you do! By that logic... I also told that young whipper snapper I'd have anal sex with him... how can I possibly reconcile these opposing viewpoints? I called him a pussy too.

The Money Shot: Kid Rock's Gonna Get A Lesson In Economics...

"It's based on an old system where iTunes takes the money, the record company takes the money, and they don't give it to the artists. Back in the day, we all know the stories of the Otis Reddings and Chuck Berrys and Fats Dominos who never got paid. So the internet was an opportunity for everyone to be treated fairly, for the consumer to get a fair price, for the artist to be paid fairly, for the record companies to make some money. I will be on iTunes eventually because I can't avoid it, but I like to always stick to my guns and prove a point and do something original and because I believe in it."

The Money Shot: Conan Bowls With The White Stripes...

"I actually met them before they were the White Stripes. Years ago, I was in Detroit shooting a remote for my show and I went to a bowling alley with two of my writers and we were just bowling and drinking beer. And these two young people came over and were chatting us up because they recognized me from television and, ya know, the future White Stripes. And we just hung out and they weren't the White Stripes yet and then years later they reminded me "do you remember we hung out in a bowling alley?" And I have a huge amount of respect and affection for them. I really think they're artists. They are the real thing."

The Money Shot: So Far, Microsoft Isn't Knocking On My Door...

"Fortune 500 companies are waking up to the fact that young hipsters are congregating on MP3 blogs. This is an extremely desirable demographic for many of these companies. The people who troll for music on MP3 blogs tend to be tastemakers who wield considerable influence over their peers. But they're also difficult to reach through traditional media. Microsoft can't count on getting their attention with a pricey "American Idol" ad."

The Money Shot: Bruce is God...

"I think one thing that’s changed much about him is that he’s a more public artist now. He’s more about our responsibility to the world and its people – especially people who have been marginalized. The early stuff was certainly ideological, but more personal – private issues, one person trying to make it in the world. He’s more social in his development now – he sings like a grown-up. And in concert, he doesn’t do only the chestnuts and hasn’t rested on his laurels. I think that gives his later work a depth and maturity. He’s seeing the world differently – socially instead of personally."

- Stoughton minister delivers ‘The Gospel according to Bruce Springsteen’
