Linkin Park's Shinoda Hints At New Music, Nixes Touring.
In the wake of releasing a never-before-head single, “Lost,” Linkin Park has opened up a bit more about what’s in store for the band. As we recently told you, Mike Shinoda has been quick to deny the band is headed for a reunion following the 2017 death of frontman Chester Bennington.
However, now Shinoda has given fans a bit more hope. Speaking in a recent interview, the rocker revealed that “With this release, shockingly, I don’t think there’s very much to say is off the table. Touring is the only thing [off the table]. We’re not touring right now.”
A re-release of the band’s album, “Meteora,” is due on April 7th. Shinoda feels confident that fans are “going to be floored when they hear and see all the incredible unreleased songs and video footage” it contains.

Machine Gun Kelly “Electrocuted” During Super Bowl Pre-Show.
Machine Gun Kelly had a shocking experience while hosting a Pre-Super Bowl show. The rapper/rocker was the headliner of Saturday’s Coors Light Birds Nest show in Scottsdale, AZ, leading up to yesterday’s main event. And while the show went relatively smoothly, MGK revealed he was electrocuted while on stage.
“[G]etting electrocuted during a performance was a first for me…but the hair’s cool,” the rocker wrote, referring to a moment in which cameras caught Kelly’s hair standing straight up on end while the shocking moment happened.
And while some reports are saying Kelly was the victim of a stage prank, MGK’s reactions online suggest it was a real situation that could have had worse consequences.

Chris Stapleton’s national Anthem Was AWESOME!
Either Philadelphia Eagles Coach Nick Sirianni really loves America, or he really hates country music, because Chris Stapleton's national anthem reduced him to actual tears.
I'm kidding, of course. He was obviously moved. This was an AMAZING anthem . . . and I feel like it'll end up pretty high on future "best' lists.

Slash Says Everything G'n'R Did Back in the Day Would Get Them Canceled Today
Guns N' Roses lived as hard as any band back in the day . . . and Slash knows that stuff wouldn't fly today.
He says, quote, "Most of everything that we did would've gotten us canceled in this day and age. We would not have fared well in this environment, for sure, I mean, on so many different levels.
"But I mean, a lot of things from back then would not be what you consider acceptable at this moment in time. I'm just glad that we didn't have the internet back then! It would've been a different world altogether."

Charlie Benante Tells Pantera Fans To "Let It Go"
Charlie Benante knew it wasn’t going to be simple to step in as the new guy in the legendary band Pantera. But he’s had just about enough of fans’ criticisms. The drummer has hit back at fans who still haven’t warmed to him and guitarist Zakk Wylde.
"I don’t think I’ve ever been so judged in my life by people,” admitted Benante. “And I don’t understand. People can be really rotten. I don’t think they have the ears or the eyes that most people do, and they’re so judgmental about it.” Benante’s frustration stems from the fact that he and Wylde are no rookies: Benante came to Pantera from Anthrax, while Wylde has played for Black Label Society and Ozzy Osbourne.
"It’s like, man, let it go. You know what I mean,” vents Benante. “Don’t personally attack me or Zakk…I’ve been doing this for over 40 years. Don’t f***ing judge me.”
