Former Mötley Crüe frontman John Corabi has officially left hard rock supergroup The Dead Daisies, marking the second time the singer has exited the band during his 38-year career in rock music.

The Dead Daisies confirmed Corabi's departure in a statement shared through representatives and published by Blabbermouth.

"It has come to our attention that John Corabi has decided to leave The Dead Daisies. We'd like to sincerely thank John for his incredible contribution to the band over the years and wish him nothing but success with his solo career and all his future endeavours."

Corabi has not publicly commented on the split since the announcement was made.

The veteran rocker first joined The Dead Daisies in 2015, having initially performed with the band as a touring member. During his first run with the group, he recorded three studio albums: Revolución (2015), Make Some Noise (2016) and Burn It Down (2018).

He departed in 2019 when Deep Purple and Black Sabbath vocalist Glenn Hughes joined the lineup.

Corabi later returned to The Dead Daisies in May 2023 after Hughes stepped away following a four-year stint with the band. His latest tenure lasted a little more than three years.

The timing of Corabi's exit has drawn attention following The Dead Daisies' reunion performance with Hughes on May 30 at the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, Illinois. Performing under the name "The Purple Daisies," Hughes joined guitarist Doug Aldrich, drummer Tommy Clufetos and founder David Lowy for a special show that mixed The Dead Daisies songs with Deep Purple classics.

Following the sold-out event, a second performance was scheduled for October at The Canyon Club in California.

Earlier this month, Corabi hinted that his role within the band had become unclear while speaking with Thomas S. Orwat Jr. of the Rock Interview Series.

"To be quite honest with you, I don't know what is going on with that band right now. Michael [Devin, The Dead Daisies bassist] and I are just kind of sitting here scratching our heads," Corabi said.

The singer explained that he informed management about signing with Frontiers Music Srl for a solo album and believed the band planned to take a year-long break.

"Last year when I told [The Dead Daisies management] I got this record deal, I told them, 'Hey, I signed a deal with Frontiers. I'm gonna do a solo album.' And they were, like, 'Okay, cool.'"

According to Corabi, the situation became confusing when the band began moving forward with other projects during what he believed would be downtime.

"And then we're on tour, and then all of a sudden it's like they're doing a show with Glenn Hughes, who I adore, so don't read anything into that. I love Glenn Hughes."

He continued: "Michael and I are, like, 'Are we still employed by The Daisies or…?' I don't even know what's going on."

Despite the uncertainty, Corabi said he was focused on his own music.

"But I'm not worried about it. I'm just, like, 'You know what? Whatever.' I'm very happy doing what I'm doing, and I'm very proud of the record that I just delivered."

John Corabi Turns Attention Toward Solo Career

Corabi released his latest solo album, New Day, in April through Frontiers Music Srl and has increasingly shifted his attention toward solo work.

The move comes after a long career that began in the late 1980s and included time with The Scream, Mötley Crüe, Union, Ratt and several other hard rock projects.

Corabi became widely known after replacing Vince Neil as Mötley Crüe's lead singer in 1992, remaining with the band until Neil returned in 1996.

Just last week, Corabi reflected on his departure from Mötley Crüe and the friendships he felt he lost during that period.

"The hardest part, to me, out of that Mötley thing was I felt like I was losing three friends,” he told This Day in Metal.

Despite the challenges, the singer said he remains thankful for the opportunity.

"I love the opportunity that Mötley Crüe gave me, and if I could just be blatantly honest, I know — nobody knows better than I do — that had I not been in Mötley Crüe, I'm not saying I wouldn't have had a career, but it definitely helped me get to this point."

Meanwhile, The Dead Daisies are expected to continue their plans for an extensive United States and European tour in 2027.

Before he became synonymous with timeless country hits like "The Gambler" and "Lady," Kenny Rogers proved he wasn't afraid to try something completely different.

On July 16, 1982, Rogers starred in Six Pack, a family comedy-drama that marked one of the biggest acting roles of his career and introduced audiences to a side of the country superstar they hadn't seen before.

In the film, Rogers plays Brewster Baker, a down-on-his-luck stock car driver whose race car is stripped by a group of orphaned children. Instead of turning them in, Baker reluctantly takes the kids under his wing, and together they help revive his racing career while forming an unlikely family.

The heartwarming film blended comedy, racing action and family drama, earning more than $20 million at the box office during its theatrical run. It also helped cement Rogers' growing presence in Hollywood during the early 1980s.

While Rogers had already appeared in television movies and specials, Six Pack gave him one of his first opportunities to carry a major theatrical release. His easygoing charisma translated naturally to the screen, and audiences embraced his everyman performance as the kind-hearted race car driver.

Looking back, the movie also introduced viewers to several young actors who would go on to successful careers, including Diane Lane, who played one of the teenagers caring for the younger children.

Although Six Pack isn't discussed as often as Rogers' chart-topping music career, it remains a nostalgic favorite for many fans who grew up in the 1980s. The film showcased the singer's natural warmth and reinforced why he became one of country music's most beloved crossover stars.

Rogers would continue acting throughout his career, most famously portraying Brady Hawkes in the popular The Gambler television movies based on his signature hit.

But for many fans, Six Pack remains a reminder of a time when one of country music's biggest stars successfully shifted gears from the recording studio to the silver screen.

Cream may have been a short-lived band, but this supergroup created a timeless track that became one of the most recognizable and enduring anthems of the classic rock era.

Formed in 1966, the trio consisted of Eric Clapton from The Yardbirds, Ginger Baker and vocalist Jack Bruce from Blues Incorporated and the Graham Bond Organisation. Together, they are widely considered as the first official supergroup in rock music.

"I had always liked Ginger", Clapton shared in a 1997 Guitar World interview, "Ginger had come to see me play with the Bluesbreakers. After the gig, he drove me back to London in his Rover. I was very impressed with his car and driving. He was telling me that he wanted to start a band, and I had been thinking about it too.”

The union ultimately solidified its place as one of rock's most influential and celebrated supergroups.

Furthermore, the band has frequently been named among the greatest supergroups of all time, alongside legendary all-star ensembles like Bad Company, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Traveling Wilburys and others.

With Cream introducing a different kind of lineup, fans were intrigued by its unique sound, which blended jazz fusion, heavy blues rock and psychedelia.

It’s easy to see why their 1967 track "Sunshine of Your Love" became the band’s signature anthem.

Part of their sophomore album, Disraeli Gears, the single became Cream’s highest-charting song, peaking at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remaining on the chart for 26 weeks.

Written by the trio alongside lyricist Pete Brown, "Sunshine of Your Love" was born out of an all-night songwriting session.

By the next morning, Bruce had a eureka moment. Inspired by Jimi Hendrix’s London performance, the Cream member wanted to capture the guitarist’s energy and heavy playing style.

Picking up his acoustic guitar, he played the now-iconic riff while Brown wrote down the opening line, “just like in one of those really cheesy biopics.”

“Pete and I had been working all night trying to come up with some songs,” the bassist and vocalist said, as mentioned in Louder Sound’s report. “I just picked up my double bass and looked out the window, and the sun was coming up. And I just started playing the riff of ‘Sunshine of Your Love.’”

The unexpected moment sparked the song's signature melody, with Clapton adding the chorus section, which Bruce later described as a “really nice turnaround part.”

Unfortunately, after releasing iconic hits like "White Room," "Crossroads" and "Badge," along with four studio albums, the band announced its breakup in 1968. Its final album, Goodbye, was released in 1969 as a post-breakup farewell record.

More than three decades after Elizabeth Manley took the ice at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, her free skate remains one of the most celebrated figure skating performances of all time. Skating in front of a home crowd, Manley entered the Games as the underdog and emerged as a silver medalist. To this day, her performance is remembered for far more than its technical excellence. It represents the rare convergence of athletic brilliance and emotional resilience that has come to symbolize the Olympic spirit.

While Olympic skating legends like Katarina Witt, Scott Hamilton, and Torvill and Dean secured their legacies with gold medal-winning performances, Elizabeth Manley's most unforgettable moment resulted in a silver medal that felt every bit as meaningful as standing atop the podium.

Elizabeth Manley Overcame Personal Struggles Before the Calgary Olympics

Entering the 1988 Winter Games, Manley faced enormous challenges brought on by the pressures of elite skating, time away from her family, and depression and anxiety resulting from years of intense training. Overwhelmed, she stepped away from competitive skating in 1983 to focus on her mental health. During that time, she experienced significant weight gain and hair loss caused by stress, at a time when mental health struggles carried monumental stigma in sports.

Heading into the Calgary Games, many questioned whether she could compete at the highest level. Even members of the Canadian media openly doubted her potential. Manley entered the 1988 Winter Olympics as a respected skater, but not a favorite. Competing against reigning Olympic champion Katarina Witt and world champion Debi Thomas, many fans and media members had all but written off her chances of winning a medal.

Elizabeth Manley's Free Skate Became the Performance of a Lifetime

Skating to a medley of music she had performed to previously, including "Canadian Concerto," Elizabeth Manley's free skate became the performance of her life. It wasn't just the impressive series of difficult jumps or the speed, confidence, and effortless grace with which she moved across the ice. It was the sheer joy she radiated from beginning to end.

Manley's performance received a lengthy standing ovation from the hometown crowd, and ABC commentator Jim McKay perfectly captured the emotions shared by those watching.

"Wouldn't it be great if every human being could have a moment like this once in their lives?"

Why Elizabeth Manley's Silver Medal Meant So Much to Canadians

For Canadians, Manley's free skate represented something much bigger than the silver medal itself.

With much of the attention at the Calgary Games centered on the "Battle of the Carmens" between Witt and Thomas, Manley's stunning performance captivated viewers across the country. Her emotional reaction, followed by what seemed like an endless standing ovation inside the Olympic Saddledome, instantly made her one of Canada's most beloved athletes and the face of the Calgary Olympics.

Many Canadians saw themselves in Manley's journey. She had battled adversity, entered the Games as an underdog, and delivered the performance of a lifetime when the pressure was greatest and the spotlight shone brightest.

Elizabeth Manley's Olympic Legacy Still Endures

Manley's performance is still regarded as one of the greatest Olympic figure skating performances of all time and remains a defining symbol of perseverance and resilience.

More importantly, her silver medal-winning performance helped change the conversation around mental health in competitive sports, creating a pathway for more open dialogue among generations of elite athletes that followed.

General Hospital star Rory Gibson is soaking up the sun in Hawaii and gave fans a brief glimpse into his fun-filled vacation.

The beloved fan-favorite actor shared the moment on Instagram from his vacation on the tropical island of Kauai, Hawaii.

View this post on Instagram

While in Hawaii, it's been revealed that Gibson married his longtime partner, Alicia Ruelas, in an intimate ceremony. The couple began dating back in high school and had been together since 2011. The two got engaged in Maui back in October 2022.

Alicia confirmed the wedding in a now-deleted Instagram Story where she wrote, “AAHHHH! OFFICIALLY MRS. GIBSON!”

Gibson took over the role of legacy character Michael Corinthos beginning in May of 2025, following the exit of Chad Duell, who had portrayed the part for nearly 15 years, from 2010 to 2025. Duell vacated the role following his father's death and wanted to step back from the constant machine of working on a soap opera.

While Gibson expected fans to be resistant to the change, especially given how long Duell had been in the role, he was greeted with a warm, inviting response, as fans and cast made him feel at home.

Now, a year later, Gibson’s character finds himself at the center of numerous storylines. His continued toxic relationship with the mother of his children, Willow Cain, takes a toll on him as she is currently embroiled in a cover-up scheme after shooting her husband, Senator Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison), in the back and is actively poisoning him to keep him in a vegetative state. Michael is also enjoying his budding romantic relationship with Jacinda Bracken (Paige Herschell). With many twists and turns to come, fans will have to stay tuned to see how the storyline continues to play out.

Prior to joining General Hospital, Gibson's daytime credits include portraying the role of Noah Newman on The Young and the Restless.

Donald Trump’s granddaughter, Kai Trump, stunned on the 2026 ESPYs red carpet at the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center. The 19-year-old golfer and soon-to-be college freshman at the University of Miami sparkled in a shimmering slinky gold dress.

What did Kai Trump wear to the ESPYs?

Trump teased her dress on social media earlier in the week, posting a video with the title, “Unboxing my custom made dress for the ESPY Awards,” and saying, “My dress for the event might have just gotten here, first time seeing it.” Kai then ‘unboxes’ the dress…that is, to herself. Instead of showing it off to her fans, she blurs out the gown, keeping it a secret. But her face says everything. The smile. The wide eyes. And then she adds, “I’m in love. I got to FaceTime mom.” 

While Kai finally revealed the dress on the red carpet, she did not share the designer’s name.

After posting a clip of herself walking down a hotel hallway wearing the glam gown, fans had plenty to say. One mom apparently wants to set her kiddo up with the Commander-In-Chief’s granddaughter: “How do you feel about Tennesse? I have a hardworking 19 year old (soon to be 20) son that I would love to introduce you to.” 

View this post on Instagram

Other commenters praised the ‘fit, writing, “You look so ethereal in that dress, as if you stepped right out of a dream”, “Wow! Kai I really love this dress too,” and “Absolutely beautiful.”

What did Kai Trump say about Vanessa Trump's health?

Kai’s mother, the President’s ex-daughter-in-law and current girlfriend of pro golfer Tiger Woods, recently announced a breast cancer diagnosis. In mid-June, Vanessa Trump posted an update on Instagram, writing, “Over the past four weeks, I’ve been recovering from surgery, and I’m grateful to be healing and moving forward. Soon, I’ll be starting the second stage of my treatment.” 

Trump (Kai, that is) opened up about Vanessa’s ongoing cancer battle while talking to Page Sixon the red carpet: “My mom is doing good…She’s doing better.” 

The proud mom applauded her daughter from afar on ESPYs night, commenting on Kai’s Instagram post, “That’s my girl.” 

What other celebrities were at the ESPYs?

Of course, Kai wasn't the only famous face on the red carpet. Celebrity and athlete attendees also included Simone Biles, Alysa Liu, Sunisa Lee, Jalen Brunson and Ali Marks Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns and Jordyn Woods, Stephen and Ayesha Curry, Tracy Morgan, Damar Hamlin, Kevin Hart, Dwight Howard, andMike Tyson.

Finding a linen-blend skirt for less than $50 is rare, especially when it’s from Anthropologie. The Tilda Maxi Slip Skirt: Linen Edition is currently on sale for just $45, down from $138, once the extra 50% discount is automatically applied in your cart. It’s available in seven colors: brown, Oxford blue, pearl, light blue, raspberry, olive, and pitch black, though  availability varies depending on the shade. Standard sizes range from extra extra small to extra large, and select colors are also offered in petite sizing.

The ankle-length skirt is made from 52% linen, 46% viscose, and 2% elastane, so it has the breathability of linen while still feeling soft. It has a slim, flowy shape that drapes along the body, plus easy pull-on styling. The skirt is also lined, which is practically a non-negotiable with lighter summer fabrics, and it can conveniently go in the washing machine.

When you want a little extra coverage but can’t imagine putting on jeans in the heat, this breezy linen blend is an easy alternative. The ankle-length hem works for the office, dinner, or any other plans where shorts might not feel like the right fit. It’s also versatile enough to dress up or down depending on the top, shoes, and accessories you pair with it.

Shoppers have said it’s a “summer staple,” with one person calling it the “perfect linen skirt” that’s “soft, comfortable, and of good quality.” Another reviewer described it as “flowy and light,” noting that it “goes with just about anything,” while a third mentioned it being “the most flattering skirt I’ve ever owned.” Some found the sizing a little inconsistent, however, so it’s worth checking the size chart before ordering.

If you’re already trying to think of different ways to style this gem, the brown option would look great with a white tank, flat sandals, and a woven bag. The raspberry color could be worn with a cream, soft pink, or simple black top, and the olive hue works well with beige, pale blue, or white. It’s also easy to wear into early fall with a lightweight sweater and ankle boots.

This is an unusually affordable find for a lined linen-blend maxi skirt, especially since linen makes up more than half of the fabric. It gives you the coverage of a long skirt without feeling too heavy for a warm day, and there are plenty of ways to wear it throughout summer and into early fall. Be sure to scoop up Anthropologie’s Tilda Maxi Slip Skirt: Linen Edition while the extra 50% discount still applies.

Luckily, Costco just stocked a solution, and the new kitchen find looks far more expensive than its warehouse price tag suggests. With its clean white accents and sleek glass design, it has the upscale look you'd expect from a high-end home store.

The Sleekest Glass Food Storage Set at Costco @discover.costco

User @discover.costco shared that Costco has started stocking the Trudeau 12-Piece Glass Food Storage Set, a stackable collection designed to simplify meal prep while giving your kitchen a polished look.

The set includes six glass containers in a range of practical sizes:

• One extra-small container
• Two small containers
• Two medium containers
• One large container

Each container features a durable glass base paired with a white silicone-accented airtight lid. The minimalist design gives the set an elevated, Crate & Barrel-inspired look while remaining practical enough for everyday use.

One of the biggest advantages of this food storage set at Costco is how neatly everything stores away. The containers nest inside one another when not in use, helping free up valuable cabinet space. They also stack easily in the refrigerator, making leftovers and meal prep look much more organized.

Why Glass Containers Are Worth the Upgrade

If you've been thinking about replacing old plastic food storage containers, this Costco find makes a compelling case.

The airtight lids help lock in freshness, which can extend the life of leftovers and reduce food waste throughout the week. Glass also creates a stronger barrier against moisture and odors, helping foods maintain their original flavor.

Another major benefit of switching to glass food storage containers is durability. High-quality glass won't warp, discolor or hold onto smells the way plastic often does after years of use.

The only real trade-off is weight. Glass containers are heavier than plastic and can break if dropped on a hard floor. Even so, many shoppers feel the benefits outweigh those drawbacks.

Looking to refresh your kitchen with storage that feels both practical and stylish? Costco's newest Trudeau set offers an easy upgrade. Between its clean design, stackable construction and long-lasting glass containers, it looks like a premium kitchen collection without the premium price.

The home cooks were given 75 minutes to create a stunning chocolate dessert that could only come from their culinary homeland – but there was a twist.

As the winner of the Immunity Pin from the last episode, Jaime Tan was given the power to award 5 minutes extra baking time to one team, while taking 5 minutes away from another. No shocker, she awarded the extra 5 minutes to her Asia-Pacific team and she penalized Team Africa with the loss of 5 minutes.

Top Dishes

Team Asia-Pacific: Shompa – Chocolate Chai Biscuit Cake
Team Europe: Julia – Sicilian Chocolate Ricotta Cake
Team Africa: Rita – Chocolate Puff Puff
Team Americas: Jake – Champurrado Cake

The winner of the Best Dessert and the Immunity Pin was Julia.

“I won Top Dish. I won Dish. I got the Immunity Pin,” she excitedly said. “I am on Cloud 9. I feel amazing right now. This win means everything for me, especially being the first win for Europe.”

Who was in the MasterChef: Global Gauntlet bottom three this week?

Julia’s win meant Team Europe was safe, so the bottom dishes were pulled from the remaining three areas.

Team Asia-Pacific: Daniel – Five Spice Brownie
Team Africa: Peter – Deconstructed Chocolate Cake
Team Americas: Britny – Chocolate Bajan Black Cake

The two home cooks leaving the competition were Daniel and Britny.

“It definitely hurts that I am the first person on Asia-Pacific going home,” Daniel said. “I am disappointed because I feel like I played it way too safe. I’ve learned that it’s important to take risks, not just on Masterchef but in life.”

“I am disappointed,” Britny said. “This baking challenge really got me. But I hope the Americas take the whole thing. I am glad that I got to represent Barbados.”

In 1971, James Taylor scored his first and only No. 1 hit with a song that had already begun life as a Carole King composition.

"You've Got a Friend" appeared on King's landmark album Tapestry before Taylor recorded his own version for Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon. Released as a single later that year, Taylor's rendition climbed to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming one of the defining soft rock ballads of the decade.

The song was born out of one of popular music's most celebrated creative friendships.

Taylor and King first met while touring together, and it was during a run of shows in Los Angeles that Taylor heard the song for the first time during King's first-ever performance of the would-be hit.

"I was sure I knew the song already because it was such a classic immediately," Taylor said during an appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. "I literally ran to find my guitar so I could play it. Well, a couple of weeks later we were in the recording studio and we had already recorded tracks for two of my songs on the album, on MudSlide Slim. We had a couple of hours left and that's typically the time when someone will think of a cover and that's how we ended up doing 'How Sweet It is,' 'Handyman' and 'Up On the Roof.' It's just a spur of the moment, drop of a hat, we would do a quick arrangement and boom."

In that moment, only one song was on Taylor's mind.

"I had learned that song of Carole's and said, 'Let's play that song of Carole's!' She's in the studio making Tapestry," Taylor told Colbert. "And she's recording. Of course she wants to record that song, it's the best song written by a human being. So, I blithely go and record the song and we really liked the way it sounded, so I had to go to Carole and say, 'I sort of cut your hit.' She said, 'That's great.' It was typically generous."

King played piano on Taylor's version and also sang backing vocals alongside Joni Mitchell, creating one of the era's most memorable collaborations. Although the arrangements are similar, Taylor's interpretation leans further into the gentle acoustic sound that helped define the emerging soft rock movement.

Much to Taylor's surprise, King later revealed that his own song was the inspiration behind the now-iconic tune.

"She said, 'You know that line in 'Fire and Rain,' 'I've seen lonely times when I couldn't find a friend? That's what inspired that song, 'You've Got a Friend.''" Taylor told Colbert. "She said, I heard those lines and I was thinking to myself, 'I'm going to tell him he does have a friend.'"

Listeners immediately embraced it.

Released in the summer of 1971, "You've Got a Friend" reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and also topped the Adult Contemporary chart. The recording earned Taylor the Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, while King received the Grammy for Song of the Year as its songwriter, making it one of the rare songs to honor both the performer and composer in the same year.

Its enduring appeal lies in its universal message.

Built around simple acoustic guitar, piano and understated harmonies, the song offers unconditional support during life's most difficult moments. Rather than focusing on romance, it celebrates friendship and compassion, themes that have allowed it to resonate across generations.

More than five decades later, "You've Got a Friend" remains one of James Taylor's signature recordings and a cornerstone of the singer-songwriter era. It continues to receive regular airplay on classic hits and soft rock radio while serving as a reminder of the extraordinary musical partnership between Taylor and Carole King.

What began as a song written by one legendary songwriter ultimately became another legendary artist's first No. 1 hit. Together, Carole King and James Taylor created a timeless soft rock anthem whose message of loyalty and comfort remains just as meaningful today as it was in 1971.

Of all the rock stars in history, there are few (if any) who walked the walk like Johnny Thunders. Born John Anthony Genzale Jr on July 15, 1952, in Queens, NY, he would grow up to be one of the most unique and influential rockers of the era, a founding member of the seminal glam punk band the New York Dolls (and later, the Heartbreakers). From his signature spiky black hair and leather to his trademark gritty guitar sound, Thunders left an indelible mark on the music world. Over 30 years after his tragic death at the age of 38, fans and friends are still mourning his loss...and wondering what really happened.

The singer-songwriter/guitarist's love affair with rock started early, as his childhood friend Gail Higgins told Classic Rock, and he spent much of his teenage years catching live shows by the likes of The Who, the Hollies and Small Faces; he can even be seen in the Rolling Stones' 1970 concert film Gimme Shelter, watching from the audience at Madison Square Garden.

“We would drive eight hours to see the MC5 or The Stooges,” Higgins recalled. Soon enough, Thunders started playing the guitar himself. “Whenever he was practicing, I used to yell into the bedroom: ‘Give up, Johnny,’” she added.

His fellow Heartbreaker, Walter Lure, also shared a memory of seeing the young Thunders on the scene:

“He had high-heeled boots, velvet jackets and pants, bowling gear,” Lure said. “I’d see him at all the shows — mostly the British bands, as opposed to the Grateful Deads and Jefferson Airplanes — so I’d seen him around for years. Then when the Dolls started happening I said: ‘Holy s—t! There’s that guy.’”

Thunders' stint with the New York Dolls lasted long enough to make two albums, New YorkDolls (1973) and Too Much Too Soon (1974).

"The Dolls were for New York groups what the Sex Pistols were for British groups," said Richard Hell, bassist for the Heartbreakers.

Thunders and drummer Jerry Nolan left the New York Dolls to form the Heartbreakers with Hell and Lure in 1975 (with Hell eventually being replaced by Billy Rath). The group went on to tour the U.S. and U.K., releasing their only studio album, L.A.M.F., in 1977.

Mick Rossi, whose band opened for the Heartbreakers in the U.K., reflected on touring with Thunders in an interview with Guitar World.

“The sound he got was so uniquely his; the combination of the Junior and a Twin Reverb, cranked to the max and with a ton of reverb was what rock ’n’ roll should sound like," Rossi said, adding, "He was a lovely guy; my amp was crap at that time, so Johnny generously let me use his on our dates together.” 

Though L.A.M.F. was well-received critically, it wasn't a huge hit commercially, and the Heartbreakers broke up before long. Thunders went on to record a series of solo albums, collaborating with such iconic musicians as Phil Lynott, Steve Jones, Chrissie Hynde, Steve Marriott and Peter Perrett. One of those solo albums, So Alone (1978) featured Thunders' signature song, the often covered "You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory."

Unfortunately, Thunders, who famously struggled with addiction, had a reputation for being as unpredictable as he was brilliant.

“You always got the feeling that Johnny was hurtling towards something which wasn’t gonna end with him being able to do music,” Perrett told MOJO. "He didn’t seem to take care about his personal wellbeing, and maybe that was part of the appeal. But there were other, deeper sides to Johnny — his love and knowledge of rock’n’roll, his sweeter nature — that nobody ever really saw or understood.”

Thunders continued to tour and record throughout the '80s as a solo artist and with the reformed Heartbreakers, spending time in Detroit, Paris and Sweden. His goal was to eventually move to New Orleans, where he hoped to play with blues musicians.

That's not what happened when he got to the Big Easy, however. On April 23, 1991, Thunders was found dead by a member of the cleaning staff at St. Peter House Hotel in the French Quarter. The room had been trashed, and Thunders' guitar, passport and suitcase were stolen, in addition to $20,000 in cash. While his death was initially blamed on an overdose, an inconclusive autopsy showed that he was suffering from an advanced stage of lymphatic leukemia; it was also reported that the levels of drugs in his blood weren't lethal. Another possibility that's been continually raised over the years is that Thunders was murdered.

In his autobiography Lobotomy: Surviving the Ramones, Dee Dee Ramone remembered receiving a call from Thunders' rhythm guitar player, Stevie Klasson, the day after his body was found.

"They told me that Johnny had gotten mixed up with some bastards...who ripped him off for his methadone supply," he wrote. "They had given him LSD and then murdered him. He had gotten a pretty large supply of methadone in England, so he could travel and stay away from those creeps — the drug dealers, Thunders imitators, and losers like that."

Decades after his death, Thunders' legacy remains as beloved as ever. He was ranked #158 on Rolling Stone's list of the "250 Greatest Guitarists of All Time," and "You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory" has been covered by artists including Guns N' Roses, Ronnie Spector, Billie Joe Armstrong and the Hollywood Vampires. Fittingly, the song also played over the closing montage of the final episode of Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown, as the late Bourdain was a great friend and admirer of Thunders.

The teaser trailer just dropped for Behemoth starring Pedro Pascal, and fans are losing their minds.

According to the synopsis, Behemoth follows Alex Serian (Pascal), a gifted cellist, as he returns to Los Angeles after 20 years on the road. 

“Music, which has been the constant, all-consuming river of his life, begins to carry Alex on an adventure that will change him forever,” the synopsis said.

Although Pascal has worked on daunting projects like Game of Thrones and Gladiator II, he revealed in an interview with Vanity Fair that Behemoth was the hardest film he’s worked on.

“Holding a bow correctly alone takes a day’s lesson, and that’s moving fast,” Pascal said.

Even after doing his own stunts and handling swords on previous films, he said that this “was 10 times harder than any of those things because of the f—king cello.”

“Literally the hardest, hardest, hardest thing I’ve ever had to learn to do,” Pascal said. “Being in a gladiator arena or hanging from a harness — that stuff pales in comparison to learning how to play the cello and making it look convincing as you’re doing Tchaikovsky.”

Behemoth was written and directed by Tony Gilroy, who also worked on Star Wars’ Andor and Rogue One. He told Vanity Fair that he was struck by the orchestral landscape that surrounded them.

“You might have 30, 60, 90 players in a room, and they could hardly be more diverse,” Gilroy said. “If you look at them on the street without their instruments, they have nothing in common. The moment they enter the music and start to play, all that individuality … disappears. The whole job is to become a single, collective, communal, blended voice. It’s a really fascinating transformation. … I can’t believe no one’s made a movie about this before.”

When Pascal shared the poster for the upcoming film on Instagram, fans quickly took to the comment section to share their excitement.

“The Pedro Pascal Oscar campaign starts now,” one fan said.

“We are sooooo sat,” another said.

“Pascal is a cellist,” one user stated. “I am dead.”

“I’m over here like a proud mom as if I drove you to your lessons after school,” Kelsey Lu, a classically trained cellist, joked.

Watch the teaser trailer for Behemothhere.

It might be summertime, but Gilmore Girls fans can live out their cozy Stars Hollow dreams today for around $2.8 million.

Lorelai and Rory’s home from the pilot episode just went on the market. Although the house was built on a Hollywood film set, this Canadian home and the surrounding town were used in Gilmore Girls’ first episode. Located in a town north of Toronto, the home is on sale for the first time since the pilot premiered.

The home is listed by Sylvia Morris with Century 21 Leading Edge Realty Inc. It dates back to 1875, and is listed at $3,880,000 CAD, equaling about $2.8 million USD. The home is 2,840 square feet, featuring an additional 550 square feet in a detached building that was once a village bakery.

The home has similarities to the set used on the rest of the series, including a wraparound porch and a cozy dining room. Although the home has been expanded and updated over the years, it maintains its vintage facade and gorgeous wood-beamed ceilings.

“The open-concept living room showcases exposed wood beams, a wet bar, multiple walkouts to the backyard and patio, and offers flexibility, including the potential for a rear addition behind the fireplace,” the listing says. “Just steps to Historic Unionville Main Street, boutique shops, fine dining, cafés, spas, and scenic Toogood Pond. A truly exceptional property offering history, charm, and endless possibilities.”

While there’s no Luke’s to grab coffee, the nearby Main Street is similar to Stars Hollow. It recently underwent a $14.8 million renovation, improving its infrastructure and streetscapes. The last time it was renovated was 40 years ago, Mayor Frank Scarpitti told CBC.

“It was looking tired for sure,” Scarpitti said. “The other thing that was critical for us was not only transforming what you see, but also investing in what you don't.”

The neighborhood of the Gilmore Girls’ home now has Wi-Fi, relined watermains, tree canopies and modern lights. Find out more about the picturesque home and neighborhood here.

Legendary thrash metal band Death Angel has been dominating the scene since its inception in the early 1980s. The Grammy-nominated band has been touring for decades, and its heading back to Europe to close out the year.

The "A Room With a View" hitmakers have announced the Act III European Tour 2026, celebrating the 35th anniversary of the third studio album, Act III, which was released in 1990. A monumental record in the band's discography, Act III was the band's final album release before its ten-year hiatus from 1991 to 2001. Upon its initial release, the record achieved mainstream success in Europe. It peaked at No. 17 on the French Albums Chart and charted in the Netherlands, Switzerland, Belgium, and Hungary.

During the tour, Death Angel will be performing Act III in its entirety, kicking off in Brno, Czech Republic on Dec. 1 and ending in Hamburg, Germany on Dec. 13. Additional stops include Berlin, Germany; Eindhoven, Netherlands; and Roskilde, Denmark.

Joining the band on the tour is fellow '80s thrash metal band Vio-Lence, known for top tracks such as "Eternal Nightmare" and "Kill on Command." Tickets are on sale on Death Angel's website now.

Last month, Death Angel wrapped up the North American leg of the Act III tour, which saw the band perform the album in full along with classics and newer hits across its extensive catalog.

Later this month, the rockers will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of their critically acclaimed eighth studio album, The Evil Divide. A special vinyl reissue will be released on July 24, featuring the original ten tracks along with a bonus unheard song, titled "Wasteland."

Formed in 1982 in the San Francisco Bay Area, Death Angel was founded by cousins, lead guitarist Rob Cavestany and bassist Dennis Pepa, drummer Andy Galeon, vocalist Mark Osegueda, and guitarist Gus Pepa. The band's debut album, The Ultra-Violence, was recorded when Galeon was just 14 years old. In 2020, Death Angel were nominated for the "Best Metal Performance" for their song "Humanicide," the lead single from the album of the same name.
