​We recently got a shocking/exciting announcement that the mega-awesome All Tomorrow's Parties festival would finally be coming back to Long Beach. Are you excited? We sure as hell as are! Click the jump to see all the details.More >>

This morning, eight women made their mothers proud and competed for one of the most honored titles of all time: Miss Double D-Cember. Hosted by Kevin and Bean of KROQ 106.7, the event took place at the Slidebar (where else?) in Downtown Fullerton. Check out the photos below--there's no nudity, so it's not exaaaactly NSFW, but have fun anyway.

No, this isn't just a cheap ploy to increase page views by including the words "Michael Jackson" in the blog title. (Though if that happens, awesome!) This post actually has relevant local ties!

Former Michael Jackson guitarist Jennifer Batten, seen here with one of the greatest hairstyles of all time, will be appearing at select "Camp Jam" (like a real-life Camp Rock, but with less potential for merchandising) sessions this summer, including a "master class" July 22 at Harbor Day School in Corona Del Mar. Sound cool? Well, it's for kids ages 7 to 17, but it is pretty neat.

According to her official bio, Batten played with MJ on the "Bad," "Dangerous" and "HIStory" tours, as well, as joining the KoP for the Super Bowl XXVII halftime show, which was watched by something like 80 billion people. She later toured with Jeff Beck for three years, but at some time, sadly, she abandoned that haircut.
