Wooho, I’m finally done with my latest gallery update. I added new pictures of the guys at their Album Release Party and new stills from the NBC “Today” Show summer concert series. I also added pictures of Maroon 5 at the 10 Million Records Sold Plaque Presentation, a new candid from February 2007 and stills form their appearance at MTV’s Total Request Live.

Singer Adam Levine decides which Maroon 5 songs to release as singles by testing them out on his young siblings. Levine is so confident of his technique, he predicts tracks “Little Of Your Time” and “Wake Up Call” – both on new album It Won’t Be Soon Before Long – will shortly storm the charts.
He says, “I have a very young brother and sister, and if you can get a kid singing the words to a song after they heard it for the first time, it’s a hit. They really liked ‘Little Of Your Time’ and ‘Wake Up Call.’ Kids have no censor. They’ll say, ‘This is s*&tty!’ Well, hopefully they’re not foul-mouthed little b&*tards.”

Adam Levine: No Need For Drugs In Music Industry
Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine has launched a stinging attack on musicians who use drugs to bolster their rock ‘n’ roll image. The singer, who admits smoking cannabis, fears excessive drug-taking is becoming the norm among young stars, and is disgusted its false glamor has become a substitute for real talent.
He says, “I’ve written some of the best music ever stoned – but I’ve also written some totally horrible music. Anything beyond that recreational use of drugs is terrifying.
“What upsets me is this romantic new look at sex, drugs and rock and roll. The allure of it is incredible. Drugs must have seemed amazing in the sixties, but it’s 2007. We need a modern outlook.
“This idea that rock and roll has to be this way is archaic. Perpetuating it as this mythical thing that you have to live up to is stupid.
“Back in the day when The Beatles were on acid they were writing f$#king Sergeant Pepper. There was something happening culturally that was a phenomenon. Now it’s just the acid and no Sergeant Pepper.” Read the rest of this entry »
