I know it's a big deal for some people, but I can promise you- the absolute last place I'd want to be this week is anywhere near downtown Savannah.
When I was a kid, St. Patrick's Day was still fun- but well on its way to becoming the overwhelming cesspool of drunken fucktardery that it is today. The last time I went anywhere near the downtown area was probably about 25 years ago, and I'm pretty damned okay with that.
Besides, as my Mom always said- my Irish was Protestant, anyway. We wear orange on St. Pat's (and don't care about your Catholic saint)!
Aretha Franklin canceled two of her Florida shows today "due to lack of band personnel."
The cancellations, in Sarasota and St. Augustine, were announced in a statement from the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall in Sarasota.
While reps for Franklin confirmed the cancellation, they said she would still perform at the Jazz in the Gardens Music Festival in Miami Gardens.
Franklin's rep had no comment on why the dates were cancelled. Ticket-holders will be issued refunds at the point of purchase.
After six years off, Good Charlotte announced today that they are making music again.
“The new album is like our previous albums in that it’s for people who love music and are constantly motivated and trying to live a rad life. Everyone has something to prove to themselves, waking up every day and deciding to change their life for the better and help others do the same. GC has always been about doing this together, motivating each other, finding the unity and energy that exists in taking life’s challenges and coming out on the other side. It’s about being inspired and excited to be both who you are and who you want to be.”
The band will tour the East Coast prior to this summer's album's release. The mini-tour will kick off in Philadelphia and tickets go on sale on March 18.
As pleased as I was to see Alicia Witt guest starring on "The Walking Dead," I had an equally "oh man, that's fucking awesome" moment when she got her face bitten off.
You can check our her musical skills at South By Southwest Thursday at Bethel Hall.
