...concert. Anthem Part Two presumes to whine on behalf of everybody under 18: "Corporate leaders, politicians/ Kids can't vote, adults elect them... If we're f___ed up, you're to blame." As John McCain does with the G.O.P., singer/guitarist Tom DeLonge, 25, singer/bassist Mark Hoppus, 29, and drummer Travis Barker, 25, want to make punk a big tent...
...lies. Paul is not dead; Marilyn Manson did not star in The Wonder Years; and emerging Detroit rock duo the White Stripes is not a brother-and-sister act. Though the press has long described the two as such, it turns out that singer/guitarist Jack White, 25, and drummer Meg White, 26, were married in 1996. Why hide it? Perhaps to avoid difficult questions about their divorce last year. Or maybe it was a clever way to promote their upcoming CD, White Blood Cells (Sympathy for the Record Industry), which, says Jack White, is concerned with how "getting attention...

Last week her brand-new CD, Come Dream with Me (N-Coded Music), hit the No. 1 spot on the Billboard jazz chart immediately upon its release.

After all, singer/guitarist Jack White, 25, and drummer Meg White, 26, have the same jet black hair and pale complexion, often perform in matching red and white outfits, and introduce themselves as brother and sister. But to Detroit, and to knowledgeable fans across the nation, the White Stripes are, first, a band with great songs and a distinctive sound...
...middle-aged. Great rock groups don't usually stick around for the gray hairs to come in; they're supposed to burn out, fade away, hey hey, my my, well whatever, never mind. In fact in 1998, when R.E.M. was finishing its last album, Up (its first without original drummer Bill Berry, who retired after recovering from a brain aneurysm and lives on a farm outside Athens, Ga.), the guys did disband--but only briefly. "When we mixed that record, I thought it was our last will and testament," says Stipe. "Then we talked, and we realized that each...
