PAUL SHAFFER & THE WORLD'S MOST DANGEROUS BAND ON TOUR FOR THE FIRST TIME Special Guest: Valerie Simpson The multi-talented Paul Shaffer, with The World’s Most Dangerous Band, in tow, continues his first ever North American tour. The show features special guest vocalist Valerie Simpson along with Paul's former "Late Show" bandmates. The set list includes such crowd favorites as Ain't No Mountain High Enough, It's Raining Men, and Solid, along with a James Brown tribute and a Michael Jackson medley. Cities include Nashville, FL;, Immokalee, FL; Atlanta, GA; Kettering, OH; Beverly Hills, CA; Interlochen,MI; St. Charles, IL and Burnsville, MN. After performing on national TV five nights a week for more than three decades with David Letterman, Paul really missed playing in front of an audience. What better reason to hit the road than to support his latest Sire Records album, Paul Shaffer & The World’s Most Dangerous Band (which features appearances by Bill Murray, Jenny Lewis, Shaggy, Darius Rucker, Dion and, of course, Valerie Simpson). "We loved playing for millions of television viewers each week," says Shaffer. "Now, we're so happy to be together again out on the road and the fans are loving it!" David Letterman coined the name "The World’s Most Dangerous Band" in the early days of NBC's “Late Night". After the move from NBC, the band became "The CBS Orchestra". The core lineup of Will, Sid, and Anton remained intact, with Paul adding Felicia Collins on guitar and the horn section. For both the new album and tour, he decided it was high time to revive the band's iconic "dangerous" moniker. Grammy® winner and four-time Emmy® nominee Paul Shaffer has been beloved by audiences since his early days on the first five seasons of Saturday Night Live, and throughout his 33 years as David Letterman's musical director and sidekick. Shaffer has also served as musical director for dozens of projects, including The Blues Brothers, Paul McCartney's 9/11 "Concert for America", and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's annual induction ceremony. In addition to recording his own albums, he's recorded with such diverse artists as Diana Ross, Yoko Ono, and Robert Plant. # # # Contact: Judy Twersky Judy Twersky Public Relations, Inc. / (917) 597-5384 [email protected] .

February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES. In solidarity and support, Megan Abbott (DARE ME) Chris Abbott (LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE; CAGNEY AND LACEY; MAGNUM, PI; HIGH SIERRA SEARCH AND RESCUE; DR.

From founders Tariq “Black Thought” Trotter’s and Ahmir “?uestlove” Thompson’s humble beginnings at the Philadelphia High School for Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA), to their double digit recorded albums and EPs, to an endless overseas touring schedule, and their current position as house band on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” on NBC, The Roots have influenced generations of artists locally, nationally, and globally. As Mural Arts continues to redefine muralism in the 21st century, this project was one of its most ambitious and far-reaching yet, including elements such as audio and video, city-wide engagement through paint days, a talkback lecture series, and a pop-up studio. Working alongside SEFG Entertainment LLC and other arts and culture partners, Mural Arts produced a larger-than-life mural to showcase the breadth of The Roots’ musical accomplishments and their place in the pantheon of Philadelphia’s rich musical history. The mural is located at 512 S. Broad Street on the wall of World Communications Charter School, not far from CAPA, where The Roots were founded.

Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Willie Mabon, Little Walter and Albert King, to name a few, would all stop by the house to visit the "old man." Coming from this environment has instilled in Lane the deepest respect for elder statesmen of the blues. "I feel blessed and fortunate, to have known all those cats, and I do not take it for granted." At the age of eight, he began playing his dad's guitar, which he wasn't supposed to do. "I would break a string and put it back in the case like he wasn't going to discover it," Lane recalls.

MEN ACCUSED of SEXUAL MISCONDUCT WHO HAVE a RECORD of ANTI-CATHOLIC OFFENSES ENTERTAINMENT: Ben Affleck—After Speaking out Ag
MEN ACCUSED OF SEXUAL MISCONDUCT WHO HAVE A RECORD OF ANTI-CATHOLIC OFFENSES ENTERTAINMENT: Ben Affleck—After speaking out against Weinstein, the Oscar winner became the subject of his own sex assault narrative when a Twitter user unearthed a clip of Affleck grabbing the breast of then-MTV VJ Hilarie Burton during a 2003 taping of Total Request Live. Affleck has apologized for “acting inappropriately” towards Burton. (Flare, 11/26/2017) Offensive Catholic fare: Starred in "Dogma," anti-Catholic movie, said film is intended to "push buttons." (Catholic League, 11/19/2004) The plot was an irreverent look at Catholicism, one that maintained that Mary and Joseph had sexual relations; Mary gives birth to a daughter who works in an abortion clinic. God (played by Alanis Morissette) and the apostles (a foul-mouthed 13th is introduced) are also subjected to director Kevin Smith’s brand of humor. (Catholic League, 10/6/2014) Woody Allen—Accusations of child molestation. (Breitbart, 10/25/2017) Offensive Catholic fare: • Starred in "Picking Up the Pieces," an anti-Catholic movie that thrashes Catholicism from beginning to end. The plot revolves around a butcher (Allen) who slices up his wife and buries her in the desert. One of the hands is found (giving the finger) by a blind woman who brings it to a priest. The woman, now cured of her blindness, insists that the hand belongs to the Virgin Mary. The priest, who is having sex with a prostitute, advertises the hand to the faithful as a cure for all types of maladies; one of the “miracles” results in enlarged breasts for a woman and an enlarged penis for a dwarf.

In an election season where refugees have become such politicized gures, where they’ve been distilled down to talking points and memes and likened to a bowl of Skittles, the Emmylou Harris-helmed benet was a humbling reminder that, above everything else, refugees are just people. They’re just people. Men, women, and children, and in the current refugee crisis, 65 million of them around the world have been displaced from their homes. This isn’t a partisan issue; it’s a humanitarian one. “You can start from a place of fear and suspicion, or you can start from a place of love and compassion,” Joey Ryan, one half of indie-folk duo the Milk Carton Kids said. “We’re all doing this to hopefully promote the latter.” People behind the slew of Facebook comments that litter the event’s posts might want to question their decisions to boycott the concert series for political reasons.

The Complete Music Distribution Checklist
Presents The Complete Music Distribution Checklist Everything You Need to Sell & Stream Your Music Online The Complete Music Distribution Checklist Everything You Need to Sell & Stream Your Music Online You only get one chance to release a new song or album, so you want to do it right. Here’s what you’ll need to properly distribute your music worldwide: 1. AN ARTIST NAME This is the name you release music under. It could be your given name, a band name, or a moniker. If you’re releasing music for the first time, Google your artist name to make sure it’s not already being used by another group or artist. 2. ANY OTHER PRIMARY OR FEATURED ARTISTS This info will be included in the metadata sent to digital music platforms, and help your music reach those other artists’ audiences. • Primary artists are the main artists on a recording. Often there is only one primary artist (for example: Ed Sheeran), but occasionally music is released with multiple primary artists listed. This is done when two or more artists that do not usually work together collaborate on an album or single (for example: Robert Plant & Alison Krauss). Multiple primary artists for a release are also referred to as “compound artists.” • Collaborators who DO work together on an ongoing basis can enter their “band name” as a single primary artist (for instance, “Brooks & Dunn” or “Simon & Garfunkel”). • “Featuring” artists are those who collaborate on specific tracks, but who should not receive primary artist billing for the release. 2 THE COMPLETE MUSIC DISTRIBUTION CHECKLIST 3.
