Odds & Ends: Will Ferrell and Chad Smith, The Faceless, Kanye West, Randy Meisner & More

Dopplegangers Will Ferrell and Chad Smith have already appeared as each other on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon”, laughing openly about the fact that they so closely resemble one another. Now the two will be hosting a Quinceañera on April 29 in Los Angeles.

The event will include comedy from Ferrell and musical performances by The Red Hot Chili Peppers and other bands.

The Red Hot Benefit Comedy and Music Show & Quinceanera will be held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, and will provide funds to Cancer for College and the Silverlake Conservatory of Music.

In response to the question of why the event was a Quinceanera, Ferrel says: “I have only one great regret in life and it’s that I never actually celebrated my quinceanera.”

Tickets are available for presale on March 8 and will be generally available on March 11. More information can be found at FunnyorDie.com.

A Connecticut jury has found former Hatebreed drummer Nicholas Papantoniou guilty of murder, first-degree burglary and criminal possession of a firearm. He faces up to 90 years in prison.

The jury found Papantoniou guilty of breaking into the home of Larry Dildy in his Hamden, Conn. on Oct. 19.

Papantoniou’s testimony differed widely from that of a friend, William Coutermash, who accompanied him to the house on the day of the incident. In both testimonies, however, Papantoniou broke into Dildy’s home and shot him, fatally wounding him The New Haven Register reports.

The musician, professionally known as “Nickel P”, will be sentenced on May 26.

Metal band The Faceless will not be performing as scheduled on an upcoming tour with Between the Buried and Me andAugust Burns Red. They will also be canceling their following tour with Scale The Summit, Rivers of Nihil, and Native Construct.

The Band announced via Facebook on Friday that their replacement vocalist had backed out the day before they were scheduled to leave.

The band has performed in the same shows as some of the biggest names in metal, including Cannibal Corpse and Lamb of God. However, the band has been troubled by changes in membership since 2013, and the only original piece of the quintet is Michael Keene.

The Faceless had to withdraw from the Protest the Hero tour of Europe in Winter of 2015 for similar reasons and have not released a complete album since 2010.

Kanye West has said via Twitter that he will no longer be releasing CDs of his music and that he will only stream his music from now on.

Although the iconic rapper, producer, fashion designer and entrepreneur is far from the first to declare a focus on digital music, he is one of the largest names to state that he will not be associated with CDs.

West said on his Twitter that the Yeezus album packaging was an “open casket” to CDs, which explains album’s plain cover art.

Known for making headlines through a number of well documented incidents on live television as well as through comments in various forms of media, West has sold over 15 million records and is one of the most recognized figures in music.

Lana Meisner, wife of former Eagles bassist Randy Meisner, has died after accidentally shooting herself, authorities said.

Earlier in the day, at around 5:30, Lana had called 911 to report a domestic dispute and that her husband was waving a BB gun and “acting erratically”. Officers responded and filed a report, and then left, the LA Times reports. Later, at about 7 p.m., a weapon she was holding discharged accidentally and shot her in the head Los Angeles Police Department detectives and the Los Angeles Coroner’s officer confirmed.

A number of past incidents show Randy’s mental health has been an ongoing cause of concern for his family, TMZ reports.
