#WhatsHappening for March 1, 2018

Hey, hi, howdy friends. Hope the week is being kind to you so far.

Don't forget to join us this weekend for another rockin' edition of Saturday Night Karaoke, loud and in your face at the Iron Horse Tavern in downtown Norcross. 

We'll be blowing the doors off from 10-1, so don't miss it!

Elvis' little girl says she's broke.
Lisa Marie Presley, sole heir of her father's fortune, claims to be more than $16 million in debt- according to a deposition given in connection to her divorce proceedings against Michael Lockwood.
She also says she was "...was abusing cocaine terribly" during the last year of her marriage.
When asked if her drug use was heavy, she answered, "It was bad, yeah" but she added that she "didn’t mix the pills and alcohol until, like, the last two years."
Lockwood is said to be asking for a share of her money, as well as reimbursement for his legal fees- and claims that she is lying about her finances.
Presley split with him after accusing him of having "disturbing" images. The couple were stripped of custody of their 9 year old twin daughters, and Priscilla Presley was was briefly given custody of the children. 
In addition to the divorce proceedings, Presley is also in the midst of a lawsuit against her former business manager, Barry Siegel, who she says left her with only $14,000 in cash, $500,000 in credit card debt, unspecified unpaid taxes, and a mansion in England that's in in foreclosure. She also says he was "reckless and negligent" in his "mismanagement" of her inherited estate- including claims that he began liquidating her assets without informing her, and putting "his own best interests ahead of her in order to put himself in proximity to (other investors) and (their) celebrity circle."

Local media reports in Russia say that Olga Borisova and Sasha Sofeyev of Pussy Riot have disappeared while traveling to Moscow from the Crimean Peninsula- where they were protesting the detention of filmmaker Oleg Sentsov, who is serving a 20-year sentence on terrorism charges that many say are politically motivated.
Friends says the two women decided to leave Crimea on Monday evening after being detained and harassed by security forces, and a third member of the band- Masha Alekhina- was temporarily in police custody.

The Rock Legends Cruise announced today that The Who's Roger Daltrey would be joining their seventh annual even next year.
The 2019 voyage departs from Fort Lauderdale on Valentine's Day next year on its way to the Caribbean coast of Mexico’s eastern Yucatán Peninsula and will feature more than 20 artists, 60 concerts, artist meet & greets, interviews, acoustic sets, and more during its four day trip with the proceeds benefiting The Native American Heritage Association. 
Buddy Guy, Dave Davies and Kansas are also slated to perform- with more artists to be announced.
