plus: Security guard sues Marilyn Manson. Neil Young's "Let's Roll." Guitarist Grady Martin dead at 72. Gerald Levin to exit AOL-Time Warner.

Dave Matthews, backstage at Sunday's My VH1 Music Awards in Los Angeles, told reporters that his band will head into the studio in January to begin work on a follow-up to the Glen Ballard-produced 2000 album "Everyday." Matthews said that the band plans to re-record some songs that the band had recorded with producer Steve Lillywhite and later scrapped. He added that the band has also recorded several new songs.

No producer has been named for the album, though Matthews said the band would co-produce this time.

A Minneapolis security guard reportedly has filed suit against Marilyn Manson, alleging that Manson grabbed his head, held it against his hips and "proceeded to gyrate his hips" at his Oct. 27, 2000 concert at the Historic Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis.

Manson "doesn't have the right to do that to other human beings, whether he considers himself more important or not than the rest of us," the security guard's attorney told the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

Neil Young has shipped a song titled "Let's Roll," inspired by the actions of passengers aboard United Airlines Flight 93, to radio stations. The plane crashed in Pennsylvania on Sept. 11 after passengers tried to thwart a hijacking. While on the phone with an operator, passenger Todd Beamer was heard saying "Let's roll" to others on the plane.

Lyrics to the song have been posted to the Neil Young fan site hyperrust.org.

Guitarist Grady Martin, whose fretwork can be heard on Roy Orbison's "Pretty Woman," Willie Nelson's "On the Road Again," and Marty Robbins' "El Paso," among many others, died of heart failure on Monday (12/3).

Gerald Levin, the CEO of AOL-Time Warner, will leave the company in May. He will be replaced by Richard Parsons, the company's co-COO, the company announced.
