Australian Veterans
This charitable initiative aims to generate significant donations and raise public awareness to support the health and well-being of Australian Defence Force veterans and their families.
The Support Our Veterans Appeal will channel its funds toward two esteemed organisations: Legacy and Wounded Heroes Australia.
Legacy, an iconic Australian charity with a century-long history, is dedicated to supporting the families of veterans. Meanwhile, Wounded Heroes Australia is a national defence community organisation that provides critical 24/7 emergency crisis support to Australian Defence Force members, veterans, and their families facing immediate financial crises, homelessness, or the risk of homelessness.
Both Legacy and Wounded Heroes Australia were chosen for their proven track record of offering short, medium, and long-term assistance to returning military personnel, making them ideal partners for this charitable endeavour.

The pricing on iTunes has always been pretty erratic and honestly kind of terrible. There is no real cohesiveness in the pricing of albums for certain bands catalogues
For example here is the pricing of the albums for the band Slayer
Show No Mercy $16.99
Hell Awaits $14.99
Reign in Blood $10.99
South of Heaven $17.99
Seasons in the Abyss $20.99
Divine Intervention $15.99
Undisputed Attitude $10.99
Diablous in Musica $16.49
God Hates Us All $24.99
Christ Illusion $20.99
World Painted Blood $24.09
Like why is the pricing so erratic, Like surely Apple could make it so they are all priced somewhat inline and not all over the place I mean some of these cost more than what a brand new albums costs on CD.

She says thereâll be extra dates added down the track.

Godfather of Trap, RL Grime has released a massive 21 track, third album.
A quite unique album split into three parts of seven tracks: Apex, Grid, Rush (total of 24, 3 are bumpers for each section).
This is his largest singular piece of work to date.
No surprises here - as expected, âGutsâ has debuted at number one on the ARIA Albums chart. Her debut album âSourâ has meantime rocketed up to number eight (18 last week).
All twelve songs from âGutsâ have charted in the top 40, with âVampireâ and âbad idea right?â charting at number two and three respectively. âPaint the Town Redâ by Doja Cat remains at the top.

Her last single Padam Padam is still in the Top 100 after peaking at number 8 and interesting that Riptide by Vance Joy has also re-entered the chart there, previously peaking at number 10.

Without wanting to speculate, she could be on a tight schedule; it must also be remembered that Lewis Capaldi also cancelled a promotional visit to Australia late last year ahead of the Oceania leg of his World Tour which was also later postponed due to his health issues.
I also remember The Script snuck in a quick visit to Australia in September 2017 in between touring the United States in support of their fifth studio album, âFreedom Childâ. They returned to the country in April the following year, just after the conclusion of the Commonwealth Games, for their swing of shows in support of said album.
Meantime, last week, Bebe Rexha announced that sheâll be touring Down Under for the first time (discounting a promo visit when she performed at Westfield Parramatta, of all places, in July 2018) in support of her second studio album named Bebe.
