...drinking, the unpredictability, even the out-of-control Dalmatian, were all part of Sublime's volatile appeal. Gaugh says he and his bandmates were looking for extremes, for the raw experience that could help them write and perform compelling rock. For Nowell, harder drugs than alcohol were part of his wild ride to artistic inspiration. Gaugh says now, not surprisingly, that it was "definitely the wrong...
...weeks ago, Kaplan gave his most significant performance yet. He led the London Philharmonia Orchestra through his signature piece on the opening night of the prestigious, snooty Salzburg Festival, not far from one of the Alpine lakes where Mahler composed the sprawling, five-movement work a century ago. Predictably, some critics did dismiss the event forthwith. "A multimillionaire's cold flirt," complained one; "no trace of Viennese charm," groused another.

He has also written a forthcoming memoir of Harvard in the 1960s. For his report on the TWA crash, Rosenblatt went to the town near the site, only 10 miles from...
...about relationships," she says. "I've been in the middle of a couple of marriages, so I've seen a lot about how relationships work." The newcomer hasn't given any live solo concerts in the U.S., so the jury's not in on her ability to perform outside a studio. In the meantime, though, Tidal shows that something good can come from the end of a marriage...
