Initially, Aerosmith chose to cease touring due to health concerns with lead singer Steven Tyler, who seems unable to sing as powerfully as before. Subsequently, Journey had to scrap their tour because internal legal disputes kept arising among the band members. Now, it appears that yet another iconic rock band from the 1970s has called it quits as well.
Gene Simmons, bassist for Kiss, has a good understanding of earning money. Although his band’s music may not have been groundbreaking after the early 1980s, they have made a substantial income through touring and earnings for many decades. When offering financial advice to others, he speaks from experience.
In music genres such as rock and jazz, veteran artists are frequently given opportunities to flourish; however, this is not typically the case for hip-hop acts due to ageism. LL Cool J aims to challenge this trend. In a conversation with Billboard, he spoke about his new album titled “The FORCE“, which was produced by A Tribe Called Quest’s Q-Tip. He expressed his intentions to motivate older rappers to persevere.

39-year-old Shwayze’s music, played poolside, is easygoing, relaxed, genuine, and it provides a refreshing break after a summer filled with conflicts, hit singles, and an evolving hip-hop scene.

It’s unlikely that Pearl Jam and Ted Nugent share many common views or performance styles.

Ghost Dance is (and has been) a band that plays gothic rock music. It was founded in the mid-1980s by Gary Marx, who had previously been part of The Sisters of Mercy, and Anne-Marie Hurst, formerly of Skeletal Family. Marx explained: “There wasn’t much advanced planning when Ghost Dance formed. I knew Anne Marie from Skeletal Family touring with us – we both left our bands at the same time. She reached out to me, and I thought, that’s perfect! It would help reduce comparisons between Ghost Dance and The Sisters of Mercy if I worked with a female singer.
It’s uncommon for most grownups to express dislike towards another adult on social media. While a young child, such as a seven-year-old, might do so, this behavior is less likely in an eight-year-old due to the added maturity that comes with an additional year. However, it’s rare to see such behavior in adults.
