Heart's "Fanatic" out today. Rare live Axl Rose interview. The Monkees rehearsing for tour.  Sexiest man in the world.  Blondes are more likely to cheat. Parents and kids sports. Best time to post on social media. Best day of the week to buy things online. The most overrated jobs.

HEART

Out today (October 2nd) is Heart's 14th studio set, Fanatic. The album -- which comes on the heels of their new autobiography, Kicking And Dreaming: A Story of Heart, Soul And Rock And Roll, along with their career-spanning box set, Strange Euphoria -- is their followup to 2010's Red Velvet Car, which peaked at Number 10 on the Billboard 200.

Nancy Wilson said that for Fanatic, the band definitely wanted to cross harder edged material with personal introspection. One of the standout tracks on Fanatic is "Dear Old America," which recalls Nancy and sister Ann Wilson's memories of growing up in a military household -- and is written from the point of view of their father, a Marine Corps colonel, returning from war: "It was just this urge for us all to, y'know, just rock (laughs). And them we got into stuff like 'Fanatic' -- and 'Dear Old America' was one of the first ones we did. It just started painting itself from there. It's definitely an American story, 'cause that's who were are, too. And Vancouver's in there, too. There's a lot about being sort of a gypsy and having the traveling life, too."

GUNS N' ROSES

Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose has agreed to a rare live interview on the October 24th edition of ABC-TV's Jimmy Kimmel Live. The reclusive singer is appearing on the show to promote the band's upcoming residency at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, which begins on October 31st and runs for 12 dates through November 24th. There will be a one-hour tape delay on the interview, which is customary for Kimmel's show. This will be Rose's first TV interview since a pre-taped November 2011 appearance on VH1's That Metal Show. In related news, plenty of seats are still available for the Vegas gigs, which could explain Rose's Kimmel stint. (Rolling Stone)

THE MONKEES

The Monkees are hard at work rehearsing on the West Coast in preparation of their 12-date tour, which kicks off on November 8th in Escondido, California. The upcoming concerts mark the first group tour Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork have undertaken since Davy Jones died of a heart attack on February 29th at age 66. Also on board is guitarist Mike Nesmith, who apart from an occasional walk on during the group's reunion tour encores, last performed and recorded with the band in 1997, and according to those involved, left the group flat following their sole four-man UK reunion tour.

Micky Dolenz shed some light on the group's current rehearsals telling MusicRadar.com, "I've been up in northern California with Mike Nesmith for the last month, working with him, because he hasn't done a lot of this material in many years. It's a different dynamic, and as you say, it is bittersweet. We're not calling it the 'Davy Jones Memorial Tour,' but he will definitely be remembered, and there will be an homage to him."

Nesmith fully endorsed -- but once again sat out of -- the Monkees' last reunion trek in 2011, marking the group's 45th anniversary.

Out now is Micky Dolenz' latest album, titled Remember, which named after the 1972 Harry Nilsson classic, "Remember (Christmas)." Other tunes featured on the set are the Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode" -- which he performed during his 1965 Monkees audition -- as well as the group's "I'm A Believer," "Randy Scouse Git" and "Sometime In The Morning" -- along with a personal favorite, the Beatles' "Good Morning, Good Morning."

7am, 5pm and 10pm are the highest, high-traffic times when most people in your time zone will see what you're posting.

Best day of the week to tweet?

Between 4pm and 5pm. Others also say noon EST, as lunch hour on the east coast coincides with when people on the West Coast are arriving at work, and folks in Europe are about to leave work.

THE MOST OVERRATED JOBS (CareerCast.com)

Advertising Account Executive

Income Average: $62,105

An advertising account executive negotiates to procure accounts, and supervises advertising campaigns for products, companies, and organizations, according to CareerCast.com.

The executive earns an average annual salary of $62,105 for these services, but the position has several overrated factors, including high stress, weak hiring demand, and an unstable economy, according to the job search site.

Flight Attendant

Income Average: $40,184

In a less enlightened era, flight attendants were known as stewardesses. But times have changed, and a vocation once solely populated by pretty young women now is practiced by people of both genders and all age groups.

The average salary of a flight attendant is $40,184. A not-so-sky-high compensation thats slightly lower than the national average. Flight attendants also have to endure long and exhausting hours, cramped working conditions, and occasionally rude customers -- making the behavior of former Jet Blue employee Steven Slater , who used profanity, and an emergency slide, to escape a customer dispute, somewhat more understandable.

Photojournalist

Income Average: $40,209

Photojournalists take pictures for news outlets, which requires them to travel and document events in real time. For the average person, who slaves away at a repetitive and unchallenging desk job, that life must seem like an exciting adventure.

The job requirements of a photojournalist, however, might convince desk dwellers to stay put. Photojournalists are required to travel to where the action is and take pictures, sometimes in extremely hazardous locations ravaged by war, earthquakes, and radiation. Then, they have to deal with the stress of meeting a deadline. For risking their lives to get some good pictures, a photojournalist earns an average salary of $40,209.

Real-Estate Agent

Income Average: $40,357

Americans purchasing a new home will frequently do so through a real-estate agent. The agent acts as a liaison between the buyer and the seller of the property, with the ultimate goal of negotiating a price on which both the seller and the buyer can agree.

The average salary for a real-estate agent is $40,357. Anyone wishing to become an agent in the U.S. has to earn a license, and the time and cost associated with accomplishing that may give pause. CareerCast.com describes this job as overrated due to the decrease in activity that the profession has undergone since the housing crisis began.

Stockbroker

Income Average: $67,470

It's impossible to walk into a convenience store to buy a bottle of water, a lottery ticket, and 100 shares of stock in Groupon. While many self-directed investors choose to buy and sell stocks online on their own through discount websites such as ETRADE.com, many people instead choose to consult a stockbroker, who coordinates the sale of these and other securities.

The average annual salary of a stockbroker is $67,470, according to CareerCast.com. The primary stressor that makes the job overrated is the burden of being responsible for the financial well-being of multiple clients. This holds particularly true in todays volatile and unpredictable stock market.

Architect

Income Average: $73,193

An architect designs and oversees building construction. Lately, there has been an effort on the part of software designers to co-opt the term and re-christen themselves software architects, but for most people, the term remains associated with people who design buildings.

An architect earns an average salary of $73,193. CareerCast.com cites decreasing employment opportunities tied to the unstable construction industry as a factor making the job overrated. The amount of education that aspiring architects must undergo to earn a license may be off-putting to potential candidates, as well.

Attorney

Income Average: $113,211

Attorneys have been painted in an unflattering light in much of popular culture, but the fact remains that at some point, many people who don't understand the law will need counsel. This is where the attorney comes in, and without his or her advice, businesses and individuals might find themselves in a legal bind.

An attorney earns an average salary of $113,211 a year, according to CareerCast.com. The search firm cites lack of job stability in a poor economy, long hours, and deteriorating hiring prospects as factors that make the job overrated.

Commercial Airline Pilot

Income Average: $106,153

Those wishing to get paid to travel would have a hard time finding a better way to do it than by becoming a commercial airline pilot. Commercial pilots operate airplanes to transport cargo and passengers.

The average salary of a commercial airline pilot is $106,153. While the six-digit sum sounds attractive, pilots have to handle the stress of being responsible for the lives of hundreds of passengers, and must also endure very long hours.

Thanks for listening to The Eagle while you work. Keep it fabulous, Houston!
