Menza says he was in his front garden, looking at the moon with his two sons, when four moving lights appeared in the sky and began dancing around each other.

He admits he doesn't know what it was, but adds that four witnesses saw the "totally awesome" display. "It had the shape of a triangular object with rounded tips, glowing yellow and white," he says. "We lost sight as it went up through the clouds.

Watkins, 37, said through his solicitor Sally O'Neill QC that he was treated too harshly by judge Justice Royce, who handed down the minimum 29-year jail term as well as an additional six years on licence.

According to the BBC, she told the court that while his offences were serious, they "were not the worst that could happen." She also argued that Watkins deserved a reduced sentence for his guilty plea, which avoided the need for disturbing evidence to be produced in court.

Love spoke with the Philippine Daily Inquirer and gave some insight as to just how this whole thing will go down, when it goes down. "I don't want to be the person who makes that decision," Love said, regarding who will play Cobain in the eventual film.

"Some beautiful blond, tragic, gorgeous actor boy is hitting on me, and why? He wants to play Kurt. So I am moving that over to the agency side. I am not Cecil B. DeMille or anything like that."

With a tour on the immediate horizon, Rolling Stone points out Edgar has released a statement on Facebook about his brother and how the upcoming Rock 'n Blues Fest Tour will be reconfigured to pay tribute to Johnny:

My wife, Monique, and I are shocked at the suddenness of Johnny's passing, especially since I was so looking forward with such joy and anticipation to seeing him again and playing together. I know his body is departing this physical realm, but his presence, his music, and his spirit are undiminished, and alive as ever in my heart.

Johnny has always been, is now, and will forever remain my greatest musical hero of all time. But more than all that, he's my brother-in family, in music, in life and beyond. I will do my best to carry on in honor of his memory and the Winter name.

The upcoming tour will now feature a selection of songs typically associate with Johnny, performed by all involved, which includes the Edgar Winter Band, Vanilla Fudge, Rare Earth member Peter Rivera and Savoy Brown's Kim Simmonds.

Zombie posted a message on Facebook on Tuesday explaining to fans what happened, "I am very sorry to everyone who was at RockFest. Believe it or not this is the first time in 29 years I have not been able to finish a show. I have played through many many nights with a f***ed voice. I knew it backstage but came out and tried anyway, but failed.

"I understand people are pissed, but what can you do? It is easy to say 'man up and just do it' but when no sound is coming out there is nothing you can do. If you have ever lost your voice before, then you know it doesn't magically return just because you want it to.

"If there was a way to do the show I would have done it, as I have many, many times before. F***, I done shows where I walked to the side of the stage between songs to vomit I was so sick. Whatever. I'm not looking for sympathy and I don't expect anyone care but these are the facts.

"As far as everyone yelling 'I've been a fan for 20 years and now I f***ing hate you! you pussy rockstar!' What can I say f***ing sh*tty stuff happens sometimes. I tried explaining it into the mic before I left the stage but I could barely croak out a word. Do you think their was any upside to that show for me? Nope, it's all a big f***ing mess that I wish never happened. We are trying to figure out a time and place to make it up to everybody.

On the band's website, Corgan wrote, "So it's done now, Monuments for an Elegy that is; and what a relief." There, he referred to it as 'for an elegy' rather than 'to an elegy'; it's unclear whether it was a typo or if the album title has changed.

The album, which features M�tley Cr�e's Tommy Lee on drums for all nine songs, only needs to be mixed. Corgan opened up about the recording process in his post, writing that the album just poured out of him.

The band say he's been "playing through pain" after suffering a rotator cuff tear, but he'll miss their upcoming shows in Australia, New Zealand and North America while he seeks treatment.

Frontman Cristian Machado tells Arena.com that the album will surprise a lot of people. He adds: "I don't think we're the kind of band that releases the same album over and over. We always attempt to challenge ourselves musically in order to grow as artists and friends.

"The new album will have its surprises and all I will say is that it is very catchy and very groove-oriented. The lyrics, I feel, are by far the best lyrics I've ever written, and I really do give the guys in the band so much credit for writing such amazing songs for this new album."

The run of concerts during March and April saw the classic lineup of Francis Rossi, Rick Parfitt, Alan Lancaster and John Coughlan reuniting for what they've insisted was the final time.

Their performance at Dublin's O2 venue takes pride of place in the set, but an additional CD features 14 tracks recorded during other stops on the tour. The band say: "It all led to Dublin - the final show of the final tour. Ever.

According to Havok's Indigogo page, The Violent is set in the mid 90s amongst a tight-knit group of punks and skins. The film follows a teenager in his final year of high school as he is led down a path of crime, and must ultimately reconcile his own violent nature, or be consumed by it.

Havok, who will act in the film will also co-produce with Foo Fighters' "White Limo" video director, Kelly Jones, and Clint Carney, visual artist and singer for System Syn. This isn't Havok's first acting gig. For a few weeks in 2011, the singer played the lead role on Green Day's American Idiot Broadway play.

"I love the script," professes Havok in a press release. "I was telling Clint how much I liked it and he offered me a chance to be a part of the film which I was very happy to take. The Violent really appealed to me because it was so genuine. I think it represents a culture that existed in the 90s that people are vastly unaware of. If they weren't part of that culture I think it's a great look into that world, into the world of punks and skins, as well as representing a broader look into youth culture."

It's been a difficult few years for the group, with personnel changes and various side projects, but they reunited under the watchful eye of producer Fredrik Nordstrom to record Beloved - their first album in six years.

Speaking about the album, lead guitarist/vocalist Jona Weinhofen, says: "We've really extended ourselves, but we've done it in a way where it's tasteful and it makes sense to the music. It's not like we've gone from sounding like a metalcore band to sounding like Dimmu Borgir. It still sounds very much like Prom Queen."

The band's lineup has now been cemented with Weinhofen joined by guitarist Kevin Cameron, lead vocalist Jamie Hope, drummer Shane O'Brien and bassist Benjamin Coyte.

The event is being staged in the town's St Stephen's Church by the John Bonham Memorial Fund, who hope to bring in a total of �50,000 for the design and installation of a permanent tribute to him in the centre of Redditch, south of Birmingham.

Organisers Clem and Sam Dallaway say: "Over the years, many people - and not just Redditch folk - have asked why there isn't some form of permanent tribute to John in the town where he was born, grew up, went to school and, for a time, worked.

"It's been a while since I've been involved in the writing on an entire album", says the guitarist. "So I decided I wanted to make a completely original blues album.

"I've really had to push myself to make everything I do better than the last project. I know the fans expect it. And I feel like I owe it to the fans to give them an original record after all these years."

But a counter-petition has now been launched by fan Luke Daley, and he's already secured over 700 signings. Slamming Armdacht's campaign as "ridiculous," Daley says:

A release date hasn't yet been confirmed for the follow-up to 2011's Iconoclast. But guitarist Michael Romeo says: "The material has a little bit of everything."

Before that they'll launch a single entitled Danse Macabre on September 8, with a full-length album due next year. Prog recently said of the band: "Purson occupy that space where the shadows cast by candlelight loom large across everything. Do give them your attention."

Frontman Rich Harding says: "The band will always be indebted to Howard for dusting off his skills and contributing hugely to the completion of our album [Redacted] and the mini-tours that followed. But it's time for H to return to his singer-songwriter roots, and, most importantly, his upcoming HAS-Retuned album The Light Broke In, on track for a September release.

Theart tells GetYourRockOut: "You have to have the hunger, and after all this time, I've still got the hunger. Everyone else doesn't necessarily feel the same way about it as I do, and there you go. Things move on.

In a statement, the group says: "We are proud to present our new album Pure Heavy, an album that was written and recorded in the same spirit as Youngblood. We think it will rock your socks off.

"Hypnotic Eye" is streaming in its entirety for free from now until next Monday, July 28th, on Amazon.com's Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers page here.

When the album is released fans will have several different formats to choose from. The standard edition will be available in standard cd, digitally in MP3 and Flac formats and 140 gram 1-LP Vinyl.

The deluxe editions will be released as a 180 gram 2-LP Vinyl and a High-definition Blu-ray Audio Disc and both version will include an extra track from the album sessions.

Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers will be supporting the new album with the launch of their 2014 North American Tour, featuring very special guest Steve Winwood.

The rocker premiered "Stone Blind", "30 Years To Life" and the title track at the show, and fan-filmed video of the first two tunes has surfaced. Due September 16, "World On Fire" is the follow-up to 2012's "Apocalyptic Love."

As with his last record, the project once again sees the guitarist working with his touring band, Myles Kennedy And The Conspirators, and producer Michael Baskette.

But he resigned just as the band were gearing up to record Ballbreaker in 1995 after an argument with mainman Malcolm Young, which led to Phil Rudd's second stint behind the kit.

Slade tells Music Radar: "I'd been doing demos with the guys in London for two months, when Malcolm called and said they wanted to give Phil a try. I said, 'That's me out then - I'm gone.' Mal said, 'No, we want to keep you on. We don't even know if Phil can play.' I told him that was his problem now."

In a recent interview with BigMusicGeek, the singer set the record straight. Keifer says: "Jon is credited with discovering the band - or his interest actually led to a record deal.

"But if you went back a couple of years, Gene Simmons was actually the guy who took an interest in the band, although it didn't lead to a deal for one reason or another.

The footage also includes the pre-show fan meet and greet, the band warming up in the tuning room, as well as "The Call Of Ktulu" from the show.

"For Whom The Bell Tolls" originally appeared on Metallica's second album, 1984's "Ride The Lightning." The song was inspired by Ernest Hemingway's 1940 novel of the same name.

Bayley's tenure with the band saw many fans turning away, especially in the UK. But two decades on, he believes they think better of his time with the NWOBHM giants.

He tells Get Your Rock Out: "People seem a lot more interested and view my period with Iron Maiden in a much different way. I think people take a fresh look at it now and go, 'Well, the albums were the start of a different era of Iron Maiden. And outside the UK people are a lot more fond of those albums."

Squire says: "Working with Jon for the first time as a writer makes it another chapter in Yes' history of various people being in the band, leaving and new ones coming in. It makes it exciting."

Guitarist Steve Howe adds: "Every album's different - different time, different sensibility, and maybe a different mood too, which comes through in the music. Jon's a very fine musician."

Davison comments: "Ever since I joined the band I've been preparing for this album. It's so neat to hear the band take on what I've offered, interpret it differently and add their own flavours."

"Something great is coming to an end but new things are around the corner," Bingham tells Radar Online. "When the tour is over, we intend to have a little rocker of our own! I am so excited to have my first baby with the love of my life."

Sixx and Motley Crue recently launched their farewell tour, which is expected to run for 2 years by the time it wraps up their 30-plus year career.

A montage of images from the road plays to the soundtrack of the band's cover of Tiny Bradshaw's "Train' Kept A Rollin'", which originally appeared on their second album, 1974's "Get Your Wings."

Joined by show opener Slash, Aerosmith are playing a hits-filled set on the summer tour while also continuing to promote their latest album, 2012's "Music From Another Dimension."

Clapton shares vocals on the tune with Mark Knopfler and Don White. Cale passed away from a heart attack in La Jolla, California on July 26, 2013 at the age of 74

Due July 29, "Eric Clapton & Friends: The Breeze, An Appreciation of JJ Cale", features a collection of 16 Cale tunes revisited by Clapton, Knopfler, White, John Mayer, Willie Nelson, Tom Petty and Derek Trucks.

Described by Prog as "the perfect 'pop' record," mainman Kavus Torabi recently labelled it the most difficult recording project he's ever been involved with.

Marking the release, Knifeworld say: "The wrong planets aligned, eight collective chakras began spinning in reverse and He Who Walks Backwards stumbled forward again. Our second album, The Unravelling, has birthed itself � and that which was left has become right. Too right.
