    Rock Singer Banned From Graceland

    Rock's rich tapestry is rife with threads about musicians being banned, busted or otherwise singled out for their utter filthiness, so it's a nice change of pace when a performer gets into trouble for being a little too clean -- the fate that recently befell Puddle of Mudd singer Wes Scantlin, The singer got into hot water after he got into room temperature water -- namely the H-2-0 filling the pool at Graceland, which he leapt into while on a tour of Elvis Presley's one-time home.

    Scantlin, who was apparently fully clothed when he decided he needed a nice refreshing dip -- or, as our cynical side might suggest, a little bit of publicity for an upcoming album release -- has been banned from the grounds for life. We're not entirely certain if that means Scantlin's lifespan or that of Elvis himself.

    Uh, that head scarf--wasn't a good plan when Dire Straits did it; wasn't a good plan when Loverboy did it. You, Wes, are not helping matters....

    I hope you at least had the good sense not to wear the scarf on your cheesy little publicity stunt.

    Please. Only do this if you're holding a dressing for a head wound in place.

    This is why they do stuff like that cuz they know that it'll be talk about and printed on someones Web side. Wes has no respect for other people things. I didn't know him before and I still don't know.

    We all need to feel loved.

    The ONLY way to get the kind of love we desire is through personal relationship with God, our Creator, through Jesus Christ.

    Life is short-eternity is not.

    Think about it.
