Seether Added To New RRHOF Exhibit
Seether is the latest to be added to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s new “Right Here Right Now” exhibit. The exhibit takes visitors on a journey of the evolution of rock n’ roll and its impact on the current generation of chart-topping artists with memorabilia and interactive displays.
Seether’s display features carefully curated items from the band’s 20-year career, including Shaun Morgan’s signature green acoustic guitar, handwritten lyric sheets, and setlists. They join the exhibit that already includes big artists like Billie Eilish, The Lumineers, The Alabama Shakes, Harry Styles, Lady Gaga, and more.
"Growing up on a pig farm in South Africa, I had many dreams of being a 'rock star' in America, something that was deemed impossible at the time,” says Shaun in a statement. "It is such an incredible honor to be recognized by the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, this is a huge milestone for Seether and is by far one of the most important highlights of our career."

Corey Taylor Planning Solo Tour This Spring
If Corey Taylor gets his way, he’ll be hitting the road this spring. The Slipknot frontman has revealed plans to do a solo tour in late April and May.
In a new interview, Corey says it’ll be a short, three-week tour – but so far he hasn’t revealed what cities he’ll be hitting. He promises the trek will be “completely socially-distanced,” complete with spaced out “pods,” temperature checks, and required proof of a negative COVID test within 48 hours.
Corey is itching to get back on the road especially because his live crew needs work.” “This is the test to see if we can start to kind of inch back towards reality with these in place,” he adds. “At least until the vaccine has had a chance to kind of do its thing.”

Record Store Day Bringing Back Drops For 2021
Record Store Day is making some changes again this year due to the coronavirus. Like last year organizers are bringing back RSD Drops, one set for June 12th and another on July 17th.
“We're not quite there yet with crystal ball technology, so we're still going to be extra-cautious in 2021 and bring back the RSD DROPS,” organizers share. “As with the successful RSD Drops dates in 2020, the focus this year is on supporting indie record stores with sales, and saving the big parties, shows, in-stores, crowds, and celebrations for (fingers crossed) Record Store Day 2022.”
So far a list of Record Store Day releases has not been announced, but they are expected to be revealed “soon.”
