San Antonio, Texas - 28.07.06
While many big names in the music industry condemn illegal downloading and file sharing, the guitarist claims it is responsible for introducing the band to fans.
And he insists the unlawful habit is keeping many classic bands rocking.
Campbell tells LiveDaily, "I think it's very positive. A lot of younger kids get turned on to classic bands because they're trading files. They have 4,000 or 5,000 songs on their iPod, that's $4,000 or $5,000 on their iPod, at iTunes' prices, at least.
"A 12 year old can't afford that. When kids trade files, it's actually a good thing for classic bands such as us. It's not such a good thing for up-and-coming artists who need to sell records."

The nervous star asked fellow judge Simon Cowell's personal bodyguard, Tony, to walk her out of the building, fearing repercussions.
She recalls, "I hid near him (Tony). If I feel frightened, I'll always run to him. Tony's a friendly giant but I wouldn't mess with him."

Synopsis:
Terminal Island: The very near future.
The world's hunger for extreme sports and reality competitions has grown into reality TV bloodlust. Now, the most extreme racing competition has emerged and its contestants are murderous prisoners. Tricked-out cars, caged thugs and smoking-hot navigators combine to create a juggernaut series with bigger ratings than the Super Bowl.
The rules of the Death Race are simple: Win five events, and you're set free. Lose and you're road kill splashed across the Internet.
International action star Jason Statham leads the action-thriller's cast as three-time speedway champion Jensen Ames, an ex-con framed for a gruesome murder. Forced to don the mask of the mythical driver Frankenstein, a Death Race crowd favorite who seems impossible to kill, Ames is given an easy choice by Terminal Island's ruthless Warden Hennessey (Joan Allen): Suit up and drive or never see his little girl again.
His face hidden by a hideous mask, one convict will enter an insane three-day challenge in order to gain freedom. But to claim the prize, Ames must survive a gauntlet of the most vicious criminals—including nemesis Machine Gun Joe (Tyrese Gibson)—in the country's toughest prison. Trained by his coach (Ian McShane) to drive a monster Mustang V8 Fastback outfitted with 2 mounted mini-guns, flamethrowers and napalm, an innocent man will destroy everything in his path to win the most twisted spectator sport on Earth.

LATEST: SLIPKNOT star COREY TAYLOR insists his heavy metal group are not responsible for a slaying in South Africa, which left a teenage student dead.
Corey Taylor with his solo band Stone Sour live in concert at the Astoria, London, England - 13.03.07
Locals in Krugersdorp have been quick to blame 18-year-old Morne Harmse's devotion to all things Slipknot for his brutal attack on 16-year-old Jacques Pretorius on Monday (18Aug08).
Friends and fellow students of the murderer, who killed Pertorius with a sword before attacking two Nick Diederichs High School gardeners, claim the teen was obsessed with the rock band, their imagery and music.
Harmse reportedly wore a handmade mask similar to the one Taylor wears in videos and onstage, and has other masks resembling those worn by the singer's bandmates at home.
But Taylor tells Blender magazine that the local community leaders who are, in part, blaming Slipknot for the tragedy are being ridiculous.
He says, "Obviously, I'm disturbed by the fact that people were hurt and someone died. As far as my responsibility for that goes, it stops there.
"You have something like this happen, it could have been Marilyn Manson, it could have been any number of people who make art that is startling visually, on the darker side. It could've been Pat Boone, for Christ's sake.
"At the end of the day, there are always going to be mental disorders and people who cause violence for no other reason than the fact that they're f**ked up and lost. And all we can do is try to learn from it."

Ciccone's Life With My Sister Madonna book has riled the pop superstar, who feels betrayed by the feuding siblings' father Tony - because he handed over rare snapshots that appeared for the first time in the book.
Ciccone says, "He tried to explain to her that they're as much mine as they were hers. She kind of dragged him into the middle of all of this."
Actress/screenwriter KATE CONNOR will play her own grandmother in a new film adaptation of her family's story of survival in World War Two. The German cabin home of the U.S. TV star's grandparents was used as a training base for U.S. soldiers during the war.
The home, situated between an army base and a Nazi/Japanese prisoner-of-war camp, became known as Fort McCoy - the title of the new film.
Pulp Fiction star Eric Stoltz will lead the cast, according to MovieHole.net.
An Iranian actress who appears in RUSSELL CROWE and LEONARDO DiCAPRIO's new movie BODY OF LIES has been detained by authorities in her homeland after making plans to visit Hollywood. Golshifteh Farahani was stopped as she boarded a plane bound for Europe and then to Los Angeles, where she was hoping to meet with directors and casting agents.
State news agency IRNA officials claim Iranian actors are required to obtain a permit from the ministry of culture and Islamic guidance in order to appear in foreign movies, and Farahani didn't have the required documentation.
The 25-year-old is one of Iran's most popular actresses - and one of the country's most controversial public figures; she played the wife of a drug addict in Santouri, a film criticised for portraying a negative image of Iranian society.
Her appearance in Body of Lies marked the first by an actress living in Iran in a Hollywood production.
Punk group SNOT reformed for a concert in their native Santa Barbara, California on Wednesday (20Aug08) and announced plans to record a new album for 2009. The group split a decade ago after singer Lynn Strait died in a car accident, but recently recruited former Divine Heresy frontman Tommy Cummings.
He teamed up with founding members Mikey Doling, John Fahnestock, Jamie Miller and Sonny Mayo for a show at Velvet Jones in Santa Barbara.
The group has posted a new song, The Band Plays On, on its official MySpace.com page, and now there are plans to record a new album for heavy rock label TKO.
The other driver involved in actor SHIA LaBEOUF's recent car crash has been cited for running a red light and causing the accident which put the TRANSFORMERS star in hospital with a smashed hand. The movie star's truck flipped twice after LaBeouf collided with 21-year-old Simon Herbert's vehicle in Hollywood on 27 July (08).
LaBeouf has since undergone hand surgery, which delayed shooting on the Transformers sequel. The young star is now back on the set.
Police have determined Herbert failed to stop at a stop light and was responsible for the crash. He has been ordered to appear in court next month (Sep08).
The authorities are still awaiting for the return of blood tests so they can determine if LaBeouf was driving under the influence.
The actor's Transformers director Michael Bay insists LaBeouf was driving safe at the time of the crash: "He was not drunk. He was drinking hours and hours before... That's (DUI rumour) gonna go away.”
