Fall Out Boy To Stream MSG Concert.
In March, Fall Out Boy took the stage at a sold-out Madison Square Garden for “Fall Out Boy: Live from Madison Square Garden” which treated the crowd to a flamethrowing guitar, the first-ever full-band rendition of "Get Busy Living Or Get Busy Dying (Do Your Part To Save the Scene and Stop Going to Shows)," and a surprise guest appearance from The Academy Is' Will Beckett to perform "Slow Down.” Now, the band is collaborating with streaming service Veeps to globally broadcast the epic concert on June 7th. The show will be available at no cost to Veeps All Access subscribers in the US and $11.99 for global viewing. With access for everyone to see the MSG spectacle, the GRAMMY-nominated and multi-platinum-selling rock band will continue their reign as pop-punk royalty.

Steve Albini, Indie Legend, Passes
Steve Albini, a pioneering figure in indie-rock known for his work as the frontman of “Big Black” and “Shellac,” as well as his acclaimed production and engineering for artists like Nirvana and PJ Harvey has passed away from a heart attack at the age of 61. Albini was also known for his outspoken criticism of musicians and industry figures he felt prioritized money and popularity over the music itself, insisting on a "Recorded by Steve Albini" credit and refusing royalties, which endeared him to Nirvana's Kurt Cobain, who sought him out to produce their 1993 album "In Utero.” Albini went on to work with a wide range of other influential acts like the Breeders, Slint, and Helmet while also founding and operating the renowned Electrical Audio studio in Chicago, where he continued to take on production work for a flat fee to support indie artists.

Jelly Roll Finished a 5K He's Been Training for All Year, and Bunnie Joined Him in the Cold Plunge
On Tuesday, Jelly Roll finished a 5K that he's been training for since the beginning of this year. The event was called the "Two Bears 5K" and it was hosted by comedians Bert Kreischer and Tom Segura.
Jelly said after, "I feel great. I'm a little tired. It was a little bit harder than I thought, but it's awesome, man. I couldn't walk a mile when I started doing this back in January. So, the fact that we got 3 point whatever [miles] . . . I felt really, really good about it."
Jelly helped himself out by shedding a lot of weight exercising and training for this, but he was a huge inspiration to others as well. He said, "I think the coolest thing is how many people stopped to tell us they were motivated by us, other big guys. It was just really cool to see that."
After the race, Jelly was in a cold plunge and was greeted by his wife Bunnie XO who jumped in the water to celebrate with him. They shared a big kiss and everybody that was gathered around cheered.
Bunnie posted a video with the caption, "Couples that finish the 5K together, cold plunge together."
