KILLED. "DIMEBAG" DARRELL ABBOTT, 38, Grammy-nominated heavy-metal guitarist of the 1990s metal band Pantera; by a gunman, Nathan Gale, 25, who charged the stage during a concert in Columbus, Ohio, also killing three others before a police officer shot and killed him. Abbott, who was playing with his new band, Damageplan, was known for his short, explosive solos and for melding speed-metal with blues and other genres. Some witnesses said Gale was screaming at Abbott, blaming him for Pantera's 2003 breakup...

The sweat that literally poured from Dylan’s face at every pound of the piano and the perfection of the multi-talented Larry Campbell (guitar, cittern and pedal steel), bassist Tony Garnier and lead guitarist Stu Kimbell demonstrated both a well-rehearsed tour and the musicians’ passion for absolute effort in their performance. The band and singer interacted so well on stage, with virtually no eye contact or communication with the audience, it was as if the 3500 ticket holders had been privileged...

The opening track “If You Knew” features bold vocals over an Ennio Morricone-esque groove that is augmented by Rauhouse’s tremendous feel and copious amounts of reverb and tremolo. “Hex” has more...
...Virgin Galactic website, Branson already has a waiting list of more than 7,000 people who are apparently willing to pay the $190,000 price for a suborbital flight--more than enough to cover Virgin's investment. Among the pledged passengers are former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist Dave Navarro and actor William Shatner. As more people sign on, says Branson, Virgin will be able to lower the price: "This isn't just a pipe dream. We will get this to the point where thousands of people can go into space." He and Rutan plan to be aboard the first...
