#WhatsNew for June 2, 2017

Happy Friday, kids. Hope you all had a great (short) week. 

Happy 50th.

Funeral announcements were announced Wednesday for the late Gregg Allman.
In a post on his web page, the singer's family said that a private ceremony would be held tomorrow (June 3) in Macon 
at 1 pm. They invited fans to participate by lining up along the procession's route.
The procession will begin after the memorial service at the intersection of Cherry Street and 1st Street, heading north on 1st Street and west on Riverside Drive to the entrance of Rose Hill Cemetery.  
The family respectfully asks for privacy during the memorial service and burial.

Ariana Grande will return to Manchester to perform at a benefit concert in honor of the victims of the terrorist attack on her May 22 show there.
Grande announced Tuesday that the charity concert would be on this Sunday, and that she'd be joined by Justin Bieber, Coldplay, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Pharrell, Usher, Take That, Niall Horan, and others at the Emirates Old Trafford cricket grounds there. The show will air live on BBC TV, BBC Radio, and Capital Radio Networks. Ticket proceeds from the show will go to the We Love Manchester emergency fund.

A 1962 Lockheed JetStar once owned by Elvis and Vernon Presley has been sold after sitting on a New Mexico runway for 30 years.
Liveauctioneers.com says the plane was sold for $430,000 last Saturday at an Agoura Hills, California sale of celebrity memorabilia. The buyer's name was not disclosed.

Frank Ocean's has been forced to cancel his set at the Primavera Sound show tonight, according to festival representatives.
Primavera Sound's website said Ocean had canceled "due to production delays beyond his control. The artist has apologized and has reiterated his wish to come to Barcelona soon."
This is Ocean's third recent concert cancellation- he previously backed out of sets at Sasquatch! and the Hangout Music Festival- each time citing production issues as the reason.
