We’re a day late, but better late than never, right? Truth is, I was on a family vacation this past week and did not have any time to put this thing together until now. So here it is. This week gave us tragic news of Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins passing away. It was also reported that Too Close To Touch vocalist Keaton Pierce passed away. As of right now, there isn’t a ton of info on the situation. This week also brought us a tour and a new album from Machine Gun Kelly, a Lollapalooza lineup announcement, a return from a band that was on a 7-year hiatus, and a lot of new music.
Let’s get to it!.
