USA TODAY's music staff offers a weekend tip sheet of sound recommendations spanning the media landscape. It's always a promising sign of an expended summer schedule whenever Pacific Amphitheatre tacks on shows that fall outside the annual OC Fair run -- even if this one is just another visit from perennial fairgrounds favorite "Weird Al" Yankovic. Not to pick on the parodist: he's nothing if not consistently entertaining live. You can [...] 'Weird Al' adds non-OC Fair date at Pacific is a post from: Soundcheck The 90s. Grunge. Dot coms. "I did not have sex with that woman". You remember, right? It wasn't that long ago. 1. Suicide Blonde – INXS (1990) 2. Something To Talk About – Bonnie Raitt (1991) 3.

Music Review: INXS rework past songs with help from high-profile acts on uneven 'Original Sin' Despite Britney's surprise announcement, Enrique says no tour planned; Bob Dylan kicks off tour with first-ever concert in Taiwan This is not, as one might have expected, the sound of a post-Ryan Ross band floundering, directionless. Instead, it is the sound of a band venturing down a number of relative dead ends; the sound of songwriters mining seams less rich than those they had previously explored. It's a shame that **Stricken City** aren't more widely recognised upon their departure as these songs certainly have the makings of cult gems. THR staff The INXS frontman, who took his own life in 1997, could be the focus of a Broadway show and documentary. read more Reviewed: Bellowhead, Richard Bona, (Various jazz artists), INXS, Susan Boyle Filed under: Concerts and Tours, News, New Music, Exclusive When INXS tour behind their 'Original Sin' album -- which features a who's who of singers, including Train's Pat Monahan, Rob Thomas, Ben Harper, Tricky and more -- the frontman onstage will be a familiar face to their fans.

This is great,'" he tells Spinner. "But when you start driving too fast, you realize, 'Holy s---, I can run out of gas if I'm pushing the pedal to the metal all the time.'" RATING: (EMPTY CHAIR) Pop No one is going to begrudge the surviving members of INXS for trying to make an honest living. They are experienced musicians, were once great songwriters, and have funny accents. But there... Thirteen years after the premature death of their frontman, Australian rockers INXS still have not settled on a full-fledged replacement.... INXS is starting to feel the pull to make some fresh music again -- and perhaps its first new studio album since "Switch" in 2005. This cleverly and lovingly assembled collection assigns various pop artists lead-vocal duties on INXS tunes originally sung by the late Michael ...
