Random music news for Monday, September 16, 2019

Apologies in advance for what may be an erratic posting schedule for the next couple of days as I will be indisposed, a state involving propofol for a few hours today. But I will do my best to stick to the usual schedule, staring with music news for September 16, 2019.

  1. The Beatles: Back together again! (Well, sort of. Almost. Kinda.)
  2. Pete Townshend: Still traumatized.
  3. Courtney Love says that Prince Andrew once turned up at her place looking for sex. Why? The pair were introduced by Jeffrey Epstein.
  4. Music publishers are now doubly pissed at Peleton.
  5. Here’s more on the dude who hacked into the accounts of musical superstars and stole music.
  6. Elite competitive…whistling?
  7. KISS had to cancel some shows because Gene Simmons needed a medical procedure of some sort.
  8. Goth fans, rejoice! There’s now something blacker than black. Blacker than Vantablack, too!
