Liner Notes (January 2)
Happy New Year everyone! Here’s a round-up of a few other classic rock stories making the rounds today (January 2.)
VIDEO: Keith Urban’s Tribute to Musicians We Lost in 2017
Country superstar Keith Urban performed at the New Year’s Eve concert Music City Midnight in Nashville where he included a very moving tribute to the musical giants we lost in 2017. Urban played a melody of songs that included Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun” in honor of Chris Cornell; Allman Brothers Band’s “Midnight Rider” in honor of Gregg Allman; Chuck Berry’s “Johnny B. Goode”; and AC/DC’s “Back in Black” in honor of Malcolm Young. He rounded out the tribute by playing Tom Petty’s “Free Fallin’ in its entirety.

(Sir Paul McCartney inducting Foo Fighters? C'mon now!) She's also well-versed in etiquette and extraordinarily nice. #TransRightsAreHumanRights
