#WhatsHappening for November 15, 2017

Hey, hey- whaddaya say? Happy Hump Day! (Look, if I can't be excited for the approaching weekend- then what the hell can I be excited for?)

The lineup for the 2018 MusiCares Person of the Year ceremony has been announced, with Lorde, Harry Styles, John Legend, Haim, OneRepublic, and Keith Urban giving their dues to headliner and award recipients Fleetwood Mac.
MusiCares said the band will "be celebrated for their extraordinary creative accomplish-ments and significant charitable work." Fleetwood Mac is the first group honored by the organization. Previous recipients include Tony Bennett, Bono, Natalie Cole, Gloria Estefan, Aretha Franklin, Elton John, Carole King, Lionel Richie, Barbra Streisand, and Stevie Wonder.

The show will be held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City on January 26th.

Tyler, the Creator's fall tour is wrapping up and he's already announced winter dates with Vince Staples and Taco Bennett in support. 
The new dates begin January 26 at the PNE Forum in Vancouver and include stops in San Francisco, Dallas and Atlanta before wrapping up March 4th in Milwaukee.

Ed O’Brien of Radiohead told Esquire he has a solo album on the way. O’Brien says he's about three weeks into recording.
"I've started working on my own solo project. I go back into the studio next week. We’ve only done three or four weeks and I’m very excited about it." He added that he was inspired by "living in Brazil.: He says the music isn't "overtly Brazilian but there are definite themes. Without getting into it too much, going to Carnival in Rio was very inspiring. Rhythm and groove were a big part of it."
The album should be done late next year or early in 2019.

Don't forget to join us for the Pre-Turkey Day edition of Saturday Night Karaoke- live and loud at the Iron Horse Tavern this week.

Birthdays today include: Joe Leeway of Thompson Twins (60); Alexander O'Neal (64); Michael Cooper of Con Funk Shun (65); Steve Fossen of Heart (68); Frida of ABBA (72); and Petula Clark (85). #MusicalBirthdays
