#WhatsHappening for September 18, 2016

My plans for the rest of the day.

Hi ho kids. How's the weekend treating you so far? It's kind of gloomy out here at the karaoke compound. I think it's the universe's way of telling me to take it easy today and enjoy the fact that I had the entire weekend off. So that's what I'm going to do.

Anyone besides me find it to be pretty high on the irony meter that BET held their Hip-Hop Awards show at the Cobb Energy Center (or whatever the hell that thing is called), seeing as hell all the rednecks in Cobb have always seemed so hell bent on keeping darker skin tones out of their county?

And you thought the whole Klan thing up in Forsyth back in the 80s was embarrassing.

Anyway, congrats to the winners (of which the only name I recognize is Snoop- realizing, of course, that I'm not their target audience).

Born out of nothing other than "there's nothing on that I'd watch besides that 'Law & Order' that I've seen a bajillion times", I decided to give 'Hulk' another try.

It's still terrible. 

Speaking of terrible- all of the KFC commercials.

Dolly Parton and Pentatonix' collaboration on Parton's classic "Jolene" seems to be a big deal. Seeing as it's sponsored by Crapper Barrel, though, I just couldn't bring myself to watch it. 

Another video making the viral rounds is Corey Feldman's "Today" show appearance. I haven't watched that one, either. Mainly because A) I don't care and 2) I'm still amazed it was Corey Haim that OD'd and not Feldman. Also, I don't care. View at your own risk.

Maroon 5 has cancelled their show scheduled for tomorrow night at Hartford's XL Center, citing the upcoming birth Adam Levine and wife Behati Prinsloo's first baby.

The group's website says all tickets will be refunded and that no other shows on their current U.S. tour with be rescheduled.

The Pixies announced Friday that guitarist Joey Santiago had checked into a rehab facility to treat unspecified drug and alcohol issues.

The statement said Santiago will be in an unspecified facility for "at least" 30 days. 

"This is the best thing that Joey could have done, and we're very proud that he's taken this step," drummer David Lovering. "We ask all of our fans to support Joey while he's on this road to recovery."

The band's publicist said in the statement that the Pixies "fully intend" to tour the U.K. and Europe as planned in November and December, but that Santiago's rehab stint will affect some of the planned promotion in support of the group's upcoming album, Head Carrier.

A Fulton County Superior Court judge has found that Nick Gordon, boyfriend of the late Bobbi Kristina Brown, is responsible for Brown's demise in the wrongful death lawsuit filed by her estate.

Judge T. Jackson Bedford signed the order Friday, saying Gordon repeatedly failed to meet court deadlines in the case. The order says that means the conservator of her estate wins by default.

The judge also ordered that a jury trial be set to determine how much Gordon will be required to pay in damages.

Gordon has not been charged with a crime.

Sting has a new song that was inspired by the deaths of rock icons including David Bowie and Prince. The song, from his upcoming album '57th & 9th', was debuted during his appearance on this week's episode of Later With Jools Holland.

Sting told Rolling Stone the song is "a comment on how shocked we all are when one of our cultural icons dies: Prince, David, Glenn Frey, Lemmy. They are our gods, in a way. So when they die, we have to question our own immortality."

"Even I, as a rock star, have to question my own," he added. "And the sort of bittersweet realization that hubris doesn't mean anything in the end."

Birthdays today include: Ricky Bell of Bell Biv Devoe; Ian Spice of Breathe; Joanne Catherall of Human League; Kerry Livgren of Kansas; and Frankie Avalon. #MusicalBirthdays
