The White Stripes Cancel Upcoming TourAuthored by Scott Goldberg on September 12, 2007 - 7:38am.
 One of the most anticipated tours in years has been cancelled, as The White Stripes have announced that drummer Meg White “is suffering from acute anxiety and is unable to travel at this time," a posting on their Web site said. "We hate to let people down and are very sorry." The tour was scheduled to begin in Albuquerque tomorrow night and finish in Honolulu on October 10, at which time the band would move on to Britain to begin the European leg.
Led Zeppelin Reuniting for November ConcertAuthored by Scott Goldberg on September 12, 2007 - 6:36am.
 Though nothing official had been announced, Led Zeppelin front man Robert Plant answered a fan’s question last week about the possibility of a reunion performance by saying, “How did you know about that?” Now the rumors are confirmed, and the band will play a November 26 concert in London at the O2 Arena, to be organized and promoted by Harvey Goldsmith, one of the music industry’s most formidable concert promoters.
Bonnaroo’s Silent Disco & The Modern House PartyAuthored by Scott Goldberg on June 20, 2007 - 6:50pm.
 One of the underrated activities at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival was the Silent Disco, a tent that, when observed from the outside, looked like a bunch of hippie lunatics on drugs dancing to the sound of silence. Perhaps it’s for that reason the lines to get in stayed relatively short. But at 3am on Sunday morning, June 17th, partaking in the revelry of DJ Motion Potion, who was spinning live in the tent, my notion of the Silent Disco changed, and so did the concept and possibilities of a house party. In fact for anyone who Silent Disco-ed it became a favorite conversational point. There was something strangely bonding about dancing in a room you knew was quiet to the outside world.
One for the Ages: The White Stripes Bonnaroo PerformanceAuthored by Scott Goldberg on June 19, 2007 - 10:18pm.
 At 7:21pm on June 17th you could have heard The White Stripes take the stage in Manchester, Tennessee from 65 miles away in Nashville. The place went bonkers. Nuts. Insane. To a blind man: a mix of screaming teenage girls at a Beatles show with the start of the Super Bowl. Which is saying a lot, given it was the fourth consecutive day of 90-degree heat and approximately the 200th show of the festival. Much of the 80,000 attendees were delirious. And there certainly weren’t many teenage girls among the hippies, the hipsters, and the hicks. But that exhaustion was of little obstacle or concern to The White Stripes who, after following dozens of great acts over the previous three days, seemed to say with the first chord of the first song, Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground, “Welcome to class everyone. You’re going to learn what music is all about."
2007 Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in PicturesAuthored by Scott Goldberg on June 18, 2007 - 4:39pm.
 Where to begin? How about with some photos. The teams at Super Fly Productions, AC Entertainment, and the press crew of Ken Weinstein and Big Hassle once again put on a doozy of a show, selling out the 2007 Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival to 80,000 people. A program catered to every walk of life, to every taste and age, Bonnaroo has come to represent everything a summer festival should be. Of course everyone had their favorite moments, and if you were there, write and give me a story or three. Enjoy the pics, and check back throughout the week for more on the show…
