Foo Fighters make 'surprise' return to Glastonbury
The US rock band emerged on Friday tea time to play a surprise set on the Pyramid Stage.
I saw this ‘discless’ music box at JB Hi Fi the other day - Lorde’s new album ‘Solar Power’.
First time I’ve seen something like this to NOT include a CD (or DVD).
At $31.99, it’s nearly double the price of the album on iTunes ($16.99).
For your other $15, you get a fold out poster, card set and 2 extra songs not on the iTunes album version.
But in store (as below), it looks a bit too much like a CD… even though it’s got labels on it saying there is no CD, they probably should have made it a different size to make it look less like a CD.
Olivia Rodrigo will be releasing new music very soon.

Given the commercial success both her debut single “drivers license” and album “Sour” achieved worldwide I would not be surprised if this hits #1 in Australia.
His third studio album What Ifs & Maybes dropped today. It features radio favourites “Remind Me” and “All These Nights”, while “How Does It Feel” will be featured on So Fresh: The Hits of Winter 2023 which drops on June 30.
Minogue is now tied with Diana Ross, Cher, and Lulu as one of only four female solo artists to have scored UK top 10 singles across five consecutive decades.
Really hope Bebe Rexha is ok after that scare. From what I heard she got some stitches over her left eye (I think it was).
Later she posted on Instagram confirming she was ok, with the caption “I’m good”.
Taylor Swift is touring Australia in February 2024, however she will only perform in Melbourne and Sydney.
And only a few days later, Ava Max got attacked by a fan who jumped onto the stage while she was performing “The Motto” towards the end of her LA show.
Almost no one was surprised by the surprise appearance of The Foo Fighters at Glastonbury. They had been billed as The Churnups.

A year after the worst weather in its two decade history, Splendour In The Grass has been hit by tumbling ticket sales and artists pulling out.
Fall Out Boy has released an updated version of the Billy Joel classic We Didn’t Start The Fire, complete with events from the past 34 years.
A little gripe I have with it is it’s not in chronological order like the original version, but I can see what they did. Still great nonetheless.
No surprises in the latest ARIA Charts update…
Singles: Olivia Rodrigo’s comeback single “Vampire” has debuted at number one.
Albums: Taylor Swift swept the top five.
comeback single
Not really a “comeback”. I mean, she didn’t go anywhere. She had music that was released in 2021 and still charting in 2022. So it’s better described as her new or latest single.
What I meant by “comeback” was that it was her first new music for nearly two years. Her last entry, “good 4 u”, dropped out of the top 50 in early September last year. But yes she did have music chart quite well in the first half of 2022.
Similarly, I considered Lewis Capaldi’s “Forget Me” (released at the same time Olivia’s last entry left the charts) to be his comeback single, the Scot having not released any new music for over two years.
No big deal. I’m just saying that it’s not how that term is usually used.
It’s usually applied to someone who takes a break for a few years and then decides to come back to what they do.
This is an interesting read
A decade ago you would typically see at least 10 Australian albums in the top 50 ARIA chart each week, now it's not uncommon for there to be just one or two. Industry insiders fear it spells a crisis for local artists.
She came to worldwide acclaim with deadpan lyrical observations and a label started in her bedroom. But now Courtney Barnett is ending Milk! Records with a meditative, instrumental album.
The final release on Milk!, which Barnett started out of her bedroom back in 2012, will be End Of The Day, her fourth studio album.
