Between 1982 and 1996, The Divinyls made six albums, and like me, I'm willing to bet you can't name one LP, but I'm also willing to bet that you can sing the chorus of their top five single that was released in 1991.
Fourteen people died with some 200 injured, and less than one week after a fertilizer plant explosion, the city of West is beginning its chapter of moving forward, even though the people of this tiny town will have lingering memories of the devastation that ripped through their community without warning on the evening of April 17.
The second suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing has been captured. Dzokhar Tsarnaev was taken into police custody Friday night -- five days after the bombing that left three dead and left more than 100 injured, police said. The 19-year-old was apprehended after a manhunt that began Thursday night with the fatal shooting of an MIT officer and extended into the evening hours on Friday.
By 1981, two of the most successful and influential British rock groups of the '70s -- Led Zeppelin and Yes -- had come to an end, and the members of each band were all looking for new opportunities. In April 1981, former Yes drummer Alan White and bassist Chris Squire got together with Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page for a proposed supergroup called XYZ -- which could have also included Robert Plant, but never quite got off the ground.
Watch out! Those two "wild and crazy guys" are bracing for a return. No, I don't mean those two 'cats' on Saturday Night Live either (Steve Martin/Dan Akyroyd).

Obviously enough is NOT being done about the war on terrorism, and whether the cowards who set-off the blasts are the domestic type, or from one of the many countries spewing hate for America, this afternoon's explosion at the finish line of the Boston Marathon is yet another wake-up call to fire a majority of the politicians in Washington and start over!
What is Fandangoing? If you've been absent from the internet for the past week, let me catch you up. First of all, Fandango is a new WWE wrestler with a hot gimmick. He debuted victoriously against Chris Jericho at WrestleMania 29 on April 7
After the huge comeback success of the live reunion album, 'The Dance,' in 1997, Fleetwood Mac were back in a big way. The obvious questions started flying, asking about the chances of a new Mac LP. In spite of a short round of drama, they answered that question with the full-flying 'Say You Will, ' which was released on April 15, 2003. The album marked the return of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to the clan, but also saw the departure of mainstay Christine McVie.
He was brilliant with a quick wit, and did it old school - without dropping ONE "F"-bomb.
Jonathan Winters gave us reasons to laugh for over five decades, and because of his unlavish, yuckster persona, spot-on improvisation, and potpourri of character goofballs, Jim Carrey and Robin Williams made it big in comedy.
