The Jesus and Mary Chain continue to stand out for their out-of-the-box positions. This time Jim and William Reid criticized both the “shoegaze” label and Eddie Van Halen, one of the most celebrated guitarists in rock history. Interviewed during the Total Bummer festival in New York, where they performed together with Dinosaur Jr., the Reid brothers disputed the term with which the British scene that developed between the end of the 1980s and the beginning of the 1990s is commonly identified.

Just one week after it was announced, the Great American State Fair concert series has pretty much imploded. Six of the nine artists originally set to perform on the National Mall have dropped out, all of them effectively claiming they were pitched a nonpartisan show celebrating America’s 250th anniversary, only to realize the event would be way more political, with glaring ties to President Donald Trump (who’s since announced himself as the real headliner, anyway — go figure).

She compares her sadness around those…
