Michael Jackson
My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.
The big news is that Michael Jackson died this week. I know, it’s a tragedy. In other stuff, Wham! played their last show, Beyonce went solo, and a bunch of people got trampled in mud and died during a Pearl Jam performance.

Elton John
My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.
Elton John made the list because he played a show on short notice for a couple bottles of wine. Chris Brown made the list because he’s a bad human. And Phil Spector made the list because he’s a bad human, too.

As it turns out they’ve got a new album almost done, but they’re being kinda coy about the details.

While Sarah was on the MuchMusic Video Awards red carpet this year she got to speak to electro-rocker Diamond Rings, who was debuting a new look he called “Max Headroom meets Klaus Nomi.”
Being big Max fans in this household we’ve been entirely amused ever since.
